Item Description
TOTAL CONTENTS TIME If the recording time is already known in advance, by setting the time with this item the BD-X200
will determine the optimum encode bit rate from the remaining capacity on the blank disc and the
recording time.
● If the recording time is set using this parameter, ENCODE QUALITY will be set automatically.
ENCODE QUALITY (Mbps) Specifically, it allows direct setting of the encoding bit rate (i.e., the amount of data per second).
Large values increase the quality of the video; however, this also increases the overall data size.
By changing this setting value the TOTAL CONTENTS TIME item is automatically set.
Setting range:
The range of values that can be set depends on the audio encoding format.
LPCM : 4.0 to 7.8 Mbps (in 0.2 Mbps steps)
DOLBY DIGITAL : 2.0 to 9.0 Mbps (in 0.2 Mbps steps)
MPEG : 2.0 to 9.0 Mbps (in 0.2 Mbps steps)
For a setting value of 3.4Mbps or lower, the screen resolution is Half D1 (352 × 576 dots).
For a setting value of 3.6Mbps or greater, the screen resolution is D1 (720 × 576 dots).
