Introduction
Overview of BD-X200 Functions
ⅥVideo and audio signals from this DVD recorder’s input terminals can be recorded to
DVD-R or DVD-RW (video mode only).
(☞ Page 29)
The types of signals that can be used are as follows.
Video: Composite video, YC separate, or DV signals (including audio)
Audio: Analog audio or DV signals (including video)
ⅥA wide range of recording methods are supported. The appropriate method is to be
selected in accordance with the intended mode of use.
● The REC, PAUSE, and STOP buttons on the front panel can be used for standard operations. (☞ Page 41)
● Recording operations can be carried out using the REC CONTROL panel. Furthermore, a keyboard and mouse can also be
used when recording via this panel. (☞ Page 43)
●
The BD-X200 features an RS-422A terminal. When it is connected to an RS-422A compatible VCR, therefore, RS-422 control
can be used to carry out synchronous recording of the VCR’s video and audio to a DVD. (Various menu settings are required.)
Synchro-recording is carried out from the REMOTE CONTROL screen. (☞ Page 64)
● When a digital video camera or a DV player is connected to the BD-X200 using a DV cable, and when this DVD recorder is
setup as the master device for DV control (using menu settings), synchronous recording of any video and/or audio signals
from the DV player can be carried out to a DVD. Synchro-recording is carried out from the REMOTE CONTROL screen. (☞

● The DV IN/OUT terminal can be used to record audio and video from a non-linear editor to a DVD. In such a case, the BD-
X200 must be setup as the control slave (using menu settings).
The DVD recorder will be controlled by the non-linear editor in this type of setup. (☞ Page 73)
ⅥThe title and chapter menus can be created either automatically or manually. (☞ Page 45)
Five different patterns have been provided as display styles for the title and chapter menus. Each of these patterns is characterized
by different thumbnail characteristics (i.e., number, position, and size) and background images displayed on the title and
chapter menu screens.
When a display style is selected during the recording of content to a DVD, the BD-X200 will automatically create the title and
chapter menus in accordance with this style.
The PRESET STYLE MENU screen can be used to modify the thumbnail and background display characteristics of each of the
display styles.
In addition, the THUMBNAIL EDIT screen and the CHAPTER MENU EDIT screen can be used to modify the display style and
thumbnail images for chapter menus, and also to input chapter names and comments. The input of names or comments is
carried out using a keyboard connected to one of the recorder’s USB terminals.
The TITLE MENU EDIT screen can be used to modify the display style for the title menu and to enter title names.
ⅥDVD dubbing can be carried out using the LAN terminal.
This terminal allows two BD-X200 DVD recorders to be connected using a LAN cable, and the recorders can then operate as
master and receiver devices during the dubbing of DVDs. (☞ Page 79)
ⅥThe BD-X200 can be used to play discs that it has created. (☞ Page 59)
● Once a disc has been finalized, it can also be played on other DVD players.
