Copyright precautions
On recording
You cannot record any software having copyright
protection signals on this unit. If you start recording
protected video and audio signals, a warning appears
on the monitor screen and the unit stops recording.
During recording, if you change the INPUT SELECT
selector setting, the unit may mistakenly recognize that
a copyright protected signal has been input.
On playback
When you play back software having copyright
protected signals on this unit, you may not be able to
copy it onto other equipment.
Limitations caused by differences in format
The unit can record and play back tapes recorded in
DVCAM format. It can also record and play back
tapes recorded in DV format (SP mode).
However, due to differences in format, you may not be
able to play back or edit some tapes affected by
recording conditions of the tape (e.g., a tape originally
recorded in DV format is dubbed in DVCAM format).
For details, see “Compatibility of DVCAM and DV Format”
on page 76 (GB).
If a tape has both a portion recorded in the DVCAM
format and one recorded in the DV format (SP mode),
the following limitations are applied when you play
back the tape with this unit:
• The image may be distorted and noise may occur at
the point where the recording format changes on the
tape.
• The tape transport control buttons may be disabled
until the tape speed is stabilized.
