DV recording (Recording from a digital video camera) (Continued)
Notes
• The DV terminal of this recorder supports only input from a
DV format digital video camera. It cannot output to a
connected device. Some models of DV format digital video
cameras may be not compatible.
• At step 5, you can enlarge the video image by selecting
“Full Display”, then pressing the ENTER button.
• If “DV Chapter Create” is set to “Off” and you record onto a
DVD-R/RW disc, chapters are automatically made
according to the “DVD-Video:CHP create” setting
( page 134). The number of chapters has the limit.
Chapters are divided with a margin of about 0.5 second or
less according to the DVD-Video standard.
• DV recording does not start in the following cases:
- While recording or in the time slip mode.
- While operating a REC MENU, CONTENT MENU or
LIBRARY MENU.
- If the recorder’s clock is not set yet.
- Within 5 minutes before a programmed recording starts, or
during a programmed recording.
• If a DV recording overlaps with a programmed recording,
the DV recording will stop 5 minutes before the
programmed recording starts, and the programmed
recording will be executed.
• DV recording does not work if the DV terminal is connected
equipment other than DV format digital video camera, such
as a PC.
• Depending on the connected DV format digital video
camera, the display at step 5 may not show “Manufacturer”
or “Equipment”.
• If the DV terminal is connected to more than one DV format
digital video camera, DV recording may not work properly.
For proper functioning of DV recording, connect only one
device to the DV terminal.
• Do not keep the DV terminal connected unless you record
from a DV format digital video camera, as it may give
influence on the recorder if operated.
• If you start a recording and do not operate for about 15
minutes, the display switches to the full mode, when
“Screen protector” ( page 131) is set to “On.” Pressing
the ENTER button while “Detail Display” is selected can
restore the previous display.
• When you want to record both stereo 1 and stereo 2
sounds from a DV format digital video camera, additionally
make a connection to the audio input jacks on this recorder
using cables such as audio/video cables supplied with the
DV format digital video camera. ( page 36)
• If a DV format digital video camera is not recognized, pull
out the plug and connect it again.
• Some models of DV format digital video cameras may
support a different compression format. From such
equipment, recording is not possible.
• Depending on the models of DV format digital video
cameras, recording may not work properly or some
functions may be disabled.
• On an input source from a DV tape which is partly recorded
over, “DV Chapter Create” may not work properly.
