Disc playback in other players
A DVD-Video has large partitions called “Titles”, and
smaller partitions within them called “Chapters”.
A music CD has other partitions called “Tracks”. A number is allotted to each partition and these numbers are
called “title numbers”, “chapter numbers” or “track numbers”.
A disc recorded in this unit can be finalized. The disc
can be played back in other players that can playback
DVD-RW and DVD-R.
For more information on finalization, see “FINALIZE” in
“Setting the disc” (page 27).

Even if a disc recorded in the VR mode is finalized, you
can record or edit by cancelling the finalization. (See
“UNDO FINALIZE” on page 28.)
When you playback the disc with another player, make
sure that the DVD player supports DVD-RW and bears
the following mark.

When recording in the Video mode
When recording in the VR mode
One-time recording is set to 1 title (1 chapter). However, if you stop recording temporarily or erase scenes
by editing, the chapter will automatically be partitioned.
The interval between chapters can be specified. (See
page 31.)
When recording in the Video mode
One-time recording is set to 1 title. In recording, chapters are set automatically. The interval between chapters can be specified. (See page 31.)
NOTES:
• The title, chapter and track are numbered, but some
discs may not record the numbers.
• Recording on DVD-R/RW in the Video mode is a new
standard approved at the 2000 DVD forum. Conformity to this standard varies with each DVD player
manufacturer. Some models of DVD player or DVDROM drive, therefore, will not playback recorded videos.
When a disc recorded in the Video mode is finalized, it
cannot be recorded onto any more. Therefore, before
finalization, be sure to perform all desired recording.
After finalization, a title list that can be used by the DVD
player is automatically created.
NOTES:
• The finalization process may require from a few minutes up to 1 hour depending on the disc type and the
amount of free space on the disc.
• A DVD-RW Ver.1.1/1.2 recorded in the Video mode
cannot be recorded or edited after finalization, but if
you format the disc by erasing all the content, you
can again record on this disc.
• A finalized disc may not play because of the condition of the DVD or the compatibility with the player
used for playback.
• Some players may not playback the discs recorded
with this unit. We cannot guarantee the playback using other players.

Read this before recording on disc
This section explains things you must
know to record onto a disc. Read it
before attempting to record.
Types of disc
You can use DVD-RW and DVD-R discs to record video.
DVD-RW (VR mode)
• This mode involves multiple editing functions.
• Various editing options using a created Playlist.
NOTE:
Should a power failure occur or
should the AC cord plug be disconnected while recording, editing, initializing, finalizing or any other function, the program being recorded will
be lost or the disc may not be playable. Manufacturer can not guarantee against loss of program or disc
should this occur. To start recording
again, re-format the disc or use a
new disc and follow the instruction
on recording.
NOTES:
Recording time can change for the
following reasons.
• When image quality is poor as during poor TV reception.
• When recording on a disc that has
been edited before.
• When the video is followed with recordings of still images or just audio.
DVD-RW (Video mode)/-R
• Simple editing (renaming titles).
For more information on recording format, see “Recording format” (page 10).
Recording modes
There are 4 modes for recording on disc. Recording time and quality
vary according to mode.

Can record normal quality images.
Quality deteriorates slightly, but
recording time is longer.
Recording time is prioritized over
quality.
• Recording time above is based on a 4.7GB disc.
Since DVD recording is performed using VBR (Variable Bit Rate), recording time varies according to the recorded content.
To know the correct recording time, stop recording and check the media information. (See page 35.)

Disc remaining time
NOTES:
• When using one touch timer recording to record on a DVD disc, it
takes some time from when you
press REC/OTR until recording
actually starts.
Press REC/OTR a little before your
preferred starting point.
• Even if STOP is pressed during
recording, recording does not stop
instantly. Recording may continue
for as long as 5 seconds maximum
in the VR mode or 30 seconds
maximum in the Video mode.
• Because of characteristics peculiar to digital video compression
technology, scenes with fast motion may appear as a matrix of
larger blocks.
VR mode
• Recording is possible as long as there is available space on the disc.
(Finalized discs can be recorded by cancelling the finalization, see
“UNDO FINALIZE” on page 28.)
• Erasing unnecessary title frees up available space on the disc. (Titles
can be erased from finalized discs by first undoing the finalization.
See “UNDO FINALIZE” on page 28.)
Video mode
• Up until the disc is finalized, recording is possible as long as there is
available space on the disc. (Once the disc has been finalized, additional recording and erasing are not possible.)
• The remaining time cannot be increased, nor can recorded title be
overwritten.
• Titles cannot be erased nor can recorded titles be overwritten.
Images that cannot be recorded
“Copy Free” (unrestricted recording)
“Copy Never” (recording prohibited)
• Images that contain the recording prohibited signal cannot be recorded.
• If the recording prohibited signal appears halfway through an image
you are recording, recording is paused at that instant. When the recording prohibited signal ends, recording resumes.
• This unit incorporates a built-in copy guard. It cannot record software or broadcasted programs that contain copy restriction signals
designed to protect copyright, etc.
Recording
Land-based TV broadcasts and images you record yourself with a video
camera allow unrestricted recording. There are no restrictions on recording.
Tape playback
Some DVD-Video and broadcasts contain copy-restriction signals to
protect copyrights. There are 3 types of copy-restriction signals: “Copy
Free”, “Copy Never” and “Copy Once”.
“Copy Once” (one-time recordable)
Programs (images) that contain the one-time recordable signal can be
recorded only in the VR mode using a DVD-RW disc that supports
CPRM Ver. 1.1.

Stereo recording and playback
The VHS Hi-Fi audio system permits high fidelity recording of MTS
STEREO TV broadcasts.
When a MTS STEREO broadcast is received, the word “STEREO” will appear on
the screen and the program can be viewed
or recorded in stereo.
The Hi-Fi STEREO recording procedure is
the same as for normal recordings.
STEREO
NOTE:
When using a Cable TV system, stereo TV programs may be transmitted over a mono cable channel. In this case the word “STEREO” will
not appear and the sound will be in mono.
Output selection
When viewing an MTS STEREO TV program, or playing a prerecorded
Hi-Fi STEREO on video tape or disc, press AUDIO SELECT to select
how the audio will be heard through the speakers. Normally set to the
Hi-Fi STEREO position, this button can be set to the MONO position if
the stereo audio is of poor quality. The “R” and “L” positions allow the
audio from the Right or Left Hi-Fi channel to be heard over both TV
speakers. This button has no effect when viewing a monaural audio
program. Each time when you press the button, output selection display appears on the screen for several seconds. Refer to the chart
below.

You can switch between the left or right channel and stereo only
when playing a disc on which a bilingual broadcast was recorded in
the DVD-RW VR mode. It is not possible to switch between channels
otherwise as only the channel selected in the setting of SAP (Second
Audio Program; ON or OFF) is recorded in the DVD-RW Video mode
or DVD-R (see page 31).
NOTE:
When a stereo or monaural broadcast is recorded, either stereo or
monaural, respectively, is played back and it is not possible to switch
between channels.
NOTES:
• When playing back a video tape
or disc that is not recorded in Hi-Fi
stereo mode, the audio will automatically be monaural.
• When listening to a Hi-Fi video
tape, disc or MTS broadcast
through the RF OUT (UHF/VHF)
jack (Audio/Video cord not connected), the sound will be monaural.

Editing the disc
This section explains how to edit
the recorded contents on DVDRWs. However, the items that you
can edit vary with the recording
formats. In VR mode, you can edit
various title menus, whereas in
Video mode, you can edit only a
few items.
Title menu
When the content is recorded, a title name that includes the date, time,
channel number and other information is created automatically.
The title menu can be used when you playback after confirming the
contents (see page 34), or when you check the contents recorded on
the disc.
Original title
The titles explained above are called original titles; these will be added
with every recording. In VR mode you can do various editing operations i.e., you can rename the titles, or add the chapter marks. In addition, you can erase the unnecessary titles to increase the disc space.
Playlist
You can create a playlist based on the original titles.
You can combine or erase undesired scenes.
If you create a playlist it will become the primary list used by the disc.
If you create a playlist to customize your viewing preferences, and
choose to delete it, the original titles will not be affected. It is recommended to create and edit the playlist to prevent important titles from
being erased accidentally.
If you create a playlist, both the original title and playlist will be displayed on the title menu.
Editable items
The items that can be edited are different between original title and
playlist. For the disc in Video mode, only the title name can be edited.
The items can be edited in each are as follows:
Editing items
Original
Playlist
Original
Playback
Adding chapter mark
Combining chapters
Erasing scenes
Erasing titles
Renaming titles

Editing the disc
NOTES:
• This unit can not record or edit a
disc which was recorded or edited
using another DVD recorder.
• You cannot edit or record the disc
on which disc protection is set. In
such a case, be sure to cancel the
disc protection (see page 28) before starting the operation.
• When a scene has been erased,
the selected position for erasing
may vary slightly from the actual
erased position.
Video mode
VR mode
If you finalize the disc in Video mode, the title menu is automatically
changed. Thumbnail image and recording information will not appear
in the title menu after finalizing.
