Editing the disc
This section explains how to edit
the recorded contents on DVD-
RWs. However, the items that you
can edit vary with the recording
formats. In VR mode, you can edit
various title menus, whereas in
Video mode, you can edit only a
few items.
Title menu
When the content is recorded, a title name that includes the date, time,
channel number and other information is created automatically.
The title menu can be used when you playback after confirming the
contents (see page 32), or when you check the contents recorded on
the disc.
Original title
The titles explained above are called original titles; these will be added
with every recording. In VR mode, you can do various editing opera-
tions i.e., you can rename the titles or add the chapter marks. In addi-
tion, you can erase the unnecessary titles to increase the disc space.
Playlist
You can create a playlist based on the original titles.
You can combine or erase undesired chapters.
If you create a playlist, it will become the primary list used by the disc.
If you create a playlist to customize your viewing preferences, and
choose to delete it, the original titles will not be affected. It is recom-
mended to create and edit the playlist to prevent important titles from
being erased accidentally.
Editable items
The items that can be edited are different between original title and
playlist.
The items can be edited in each are as follows:
NOTES:
• This unit cannot record or edit a
disc which was recorded or edited
using another DVD recorder.
•You cannot edit or record the disc
on which disc protection is set. In
such a case, make sure that the
disc protection is cancelled before
starting the operation.
• When a scene has been erased,
the selected position for erasing
may vary slightly from the actual
erased position.
Using these editing functions to modify copyrighted content for any
purpose other than your private viewing may be prohibited under
the Copyright Laws of the United States and other countries, and
may subject you to civil and criminal liability.
