Hint 1: Play the recorded contents

What are titles and chapters?

The contents of DVD disc are generally divided into titles.Titles may be further subdivided into chapters.

Start Rec. Stop/Start Stop Rec.

Title 1 Title 2

Chapter 1 Chapter 1Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 2

Hint 2: Edit the recorded disc

You will find editing discs very easy.This unit offers convenient edit functions, which are possible only with DVD-R/RW discs.

You can edit the following from a title list.

• Putting names on titles

• Setting pictures for thumbnails (VR mode)

•Setting/clearing chapter markers

• Deleting parts of titles or scenes (VR mode)

Title Delete :This deletes an entire scene permanently from the disc. Scene Delete :This allows a user to edit within a specific scene (ex. commercials).

Original and Playlist (VR mode)

You can edit the recordings in Playlist without changing the original recordings. A Playlist does not take up much disc space.

What “Original” or “Playlist” is for?

Throughout this manual, you will find Original and Playlist to refer to the actual content and the edited version.

• Original content refers to what’s actually recorded on the disc.

• Playlist content refers to the edited version of the disc; how the Original content is to be played.

Finalizing a Disc

• This will allow a disc that is recorded on our unit to be played back on a different DVD player- without

finalization it will not be playable on another player. After finalizing a disc if the recording was in video mode, you can not edit any information that is on that disc.

•

• If you have recorded in VR mode on DVD-RW disc then editing is still permitted after finalizing.
