You can delete chapter markers, making one longer chapter out
of two. Removing a Chapter Marker is basically like adding a
chapter, but in reverse. In the example below, the title contains
3 chapters.
Remove Chapter
CHAPTER 1 CHAPTER 3
CHAPTER 1 CHAPTER 2
DELETE
CHAPTER 2
If you wish to “edit out” a chapter from a recording, use the
HIDE CHAPTER function.
If the segment of video you wish to remove is not already
defined as a chapter, you must first add Chapter Markers at the
beginning and end of the section, then use the HIDE
CHAPTER function to remove the new chapter.
After a chapter is hidden, it will be invisible during playback as
if it did not exist on the disc, even though it is still using space
on the disc.

Chapter Markers Only are Removed
The REMOVE CHAPTER function removes only the MARKERS
for chapters, NOT the actual video contained in a chapter. To
actually remove a section of video from a recording, use HIDE
CHAPTER, which is covered in the next section.

In this example, the section to be removed has not yet
been defined as a chapter. In this case, first add
Chapter Markers - following the procedures already
covered - at the beginning and end of the section.

To HIDE the newly created chapter, playback the title.
Press EDIT and select HIDE CHAPTER. At any point
within the chapter you wish to remove, press ENTER.
