About DV
DVR-640H-AV only:
Using DV, also known as i.LINK or IEEE 1394-1995, you
can connect a DV camcorder to this recorder using a DV
cable for input of audio, video, data and control signals.
“i.LINK” and the “i.LINK” logo are trademarks.
• This recorder is only compatible with DV-format
(DVC-SD) camcorders. Digital satellite receivers and
Digital VHS video recorders are not compatible.
• You cannot connect more than one DV camcorder at
a time to this recorder.
• You cannot control this recorder from external
equipment connected via the DV IN jack.
• It may not always be possible to control the
connected camcorder via the DV IN jack.
• Digital camcorders can usually record audio as
stereo 16-bit / 48 kHz, or twin stereo tracks of 12-bit /
32 kHz. This recorder can only record one stereo
audio track. Set the DV Input setting as required (see
DV Input on page 130).
• Audio input to the DV IN jack should be 32 kHz or 48
kHz (not 44.1 kHz).
• Picture disturbance in the recording may occur if the
source component pauses playback or plays an
unrecorded section of tape, or if the power fails in the
source component, or the DV cable is disconnected.
• The DV IN jack is an input only. There is no output
functionality.
