VR Mode: Original and playlist editing
Titles, chapters, and parts
Titles in the disc’s original content contain one or
more chapters. When you insert a disc’s title into
the playlist, all the chapters within that title also
appear. In other words, chapters in the playlist
behave exactly as chapters on a DVD-Video disc
do. Parts are sections of original or playlist titles.
From the Original and Playlist menu you can add
or delete parts. Adding a chapter or title to the
playlist creates a new title made up of a section
(such as a chapter) of an original title. Deleting a
part removes part of a title from the Original or
Playlist menu.
Editing a DVD is not like editing a video tape
When you edit a video tape you need one video
deck to play the original tape and another to
record the edits. With DVD, you edit by making a
“Playlist” of what to play and when to play it. On
playback, the recorder plays the disc according
to the playlist.
Original and Playlist
Throughout this manual, you will see the words
Original and Playlist, which refer to the actual
content and edited versions of a DVD.
• Original—content refers to what is actually
recorded on the disc.
• Playlist—content refers to the edited version
of the disc, which is how the original content
is to be played.
Adding chapter markers
You can create chapters within a title by inserting
chapter marks at the points you want.
During recording or playing back, at the point
you want to start a new chapter, press CHP.
ADD. A chapter marker icon appears on the TV
screen.
