If you record from a DV format tape with a sound track
that is recorded in multiple sampling frequencies (48
kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 32 kHz), no sound or an unnatural
sound will be output when playing back the sampling
frequency switch point on the disc.
In order to use this recorder’s Auto Scene Chaptering
function (pages 73, 74), be sure to correctly set the
clock on your digital video camera before shooting.
The recorded picture may be momentarily affected if
the picture size of the source image changes, or if there
is nothing recorded on the tape.
