Introduction

Overview of Functions

䡵Video and audio signals from this DVD recorder’s input terminals can be recorded to

DVD-R or DVD-RW (video mode only). (☞ Page 29)

The types of signals that can be used are as follows. Video: Composite video, YC separate, or DV signals (including audio) Audio: Analog audio or DV signals (including video)

䡵A wide range of recording methods are supported. The appropriate method is to be

selected in accordance with the intended mode of use.

● The REC, PAUSE, and STOP buttons on the front panel can be used for standard operations. (☞ Page 38)

● Recording operations can be carried out using the REC CONTROL panel. Furthermore, a keyboard can also be used when

recording via this panel. (☞ Page 40)

●

Recording can be operated via the external switch that is connected to the foot switch terminal. (

䡵The title and chapter menus can be created either automatically or manually. (☞ Page 43)

Five different patterns have been provided as display styles for the title and chapter menus. Each of these patterns is characterized by different thumbnail characteristics (i.e., number, position, and size) and background images displayed on the title and chapter menu screens. When a display style is selected during the recording of content to a DVD, this DVD recorder will automatically create the title and chapter menus in accordance with this style. The DVD MENU screen can be used to modify the thumbnail and background display characteristics of each of the display styles. In addition, the THUMBNAIL EDIT screen and the CHAPTER MENU EDIT screen can be used to modify the display style and thumbnail images for chapter menus, and also to input chapter names and comments. The input of names or comments is carried out using a keyboard connected to one of the recorder’s USB terminals. The TITLE MENU EDIT screen can be used to modify the display style for the title menu and to enter title names.

䡵This DVD recorder can be used to play discs that it has created. (☞ Page 53)

● Once a disc has been finalized, it can also be played on other DVD players.

Precautions for DVD Recorder Use

䡵 Storage & Usage Locations

The storage and usage of this DVD recorder in the following types of location should be avoided.

● Areas at temperatures which deviate by a significant degree above or below the permitted service temperature range (i.e., 5°C to 35°C).

● Areas at humidities which deviate by a significant degree above or below the permitted service humidity range (i.e., 20% to 80% RH).

● Areas where a large amount of dust or sand is present.

● Areas where the DVD recorder may come into contact with

oily smoke or steam, such as in kitchens or in their immediate vicinity.

● Areas that are unstable or where significant vibration occurs.

● Areas where condensation occurs readily.

● Areas where strong magnetic fields are generated by

transformers, motors, or the like.

● Areas where transceivers, mobile phones, and other wireless-communication devices are present.

● Areas that are subjected to X-ray irradiation or where corrosive gases are present. (This precaution must be strictly observed.)

䡵 Handling

● Ensure that this DVD recorder is placed on a flat, horizontal

surface for use.

● Do not place heavy objects such as a monitor on top of the DVD recorder.

● Do not insert foreign objects into the disc tray opening.

● Be careful not to get your fingers clamped when loading

the disc to prevent injury.

● Do not block the fan’s ventilation holes.

● Avoid knocking or dropping this DVD recorder.

● When the DVD recorder is to be moved, ensure that any

DVD it contains is removed in advance.

● If the DVD recorder is not to be used for an extended period of time, please set the POWER switch to OFF to avoid wasting electricity.

䡵 Cleaning the Exterior (with the power off)

Use a soft cloth when cleaning the outside of this DVD recorder. Do not use paint thinners or organic solvents as cleaning agents. Failure to observe these precautions can result in discoloration or melting of exterior surfaces. When stubborn dirt is present, wipe away using a cloth soaked in a dilute neutral solvent.

䡵 Always use the power cord provided with this DVD

recorder.

The usage of a different type of cord or a damaged cord can result in the outbreak of fire or electric shocks.

䡵

The power cord supplied with this DVD recorder should not be used with any other device.

䡵 Before connecting this DVD recorder to other

devices, turn those devices off and then carry out setup procedures as described in the corresponding user’s manuals.

䡵

The DVD drive unit is an expendable part. Although the service life of the DVD drive unit differs depending on the usage environment of the customer, replacement every 1000 hours as a guide is recommended. (☞ Page 63 “TOTAL RECORDING TIME”)

Precautions Regarding Condensation

䡵Condensation

When cold water is poured into a glass and droplets of water form on its outer surface, this moisture is referred to as “condensation”.

䡵When condensation occurs

Condensation can cause water droplets to adhere to the DVD recorder’s internal lens, thus making normal operation impossible.

䡵Condensation occurs easily in the following situations,

and the appropriate care should be taken.

• When the DVD recorder is moved from a cold location into a warm room.

• When the room containing the DVD is rapidly heated.

• When an air conditioner’s air duct is pointing straight at

the DVD recorder.

䡵In situations where it is likely that condensation will occur,

remove any DVD that may be present in this DVD recorder and then turn the power on. As the interior heats up, condensation will be less likely to occur.

䡵Condensation is a principal cause of the inability to play

discs and other similar problems. In this type of situation, allow the DVD recorder to remain inactive with its power on for several hours. If the problem persists after this period of time has elapsed, contact either the store where this DVD recorder was purchased or your JVC Authorized dealer.

Extended Periods of Inactivity

Performance may deteriorate over extended periods of inactivity; for this reason, the power should be turned on and the DVD recorder should be operated at regular intervals.

Compensation for Damaged Content

䡵JVC accepts no responsibility whatsoever for damages

incurred as a result of an inability to play or record audio and video content in the rare event that this DVD recorder, a disc fails to operate correctly.

䡵It is recommended that discs containing important content

be backed up at regular intervals (i.e., on a yearly basis). Although digital signals do not deteriorate, storage environments can have an effect on a disc’s aging characteristics, and this may result in an inability to play or record.

䡵If a disc should break, there will be no way to recover

data from it.

䡵Proper playback of discs recorded using this DVD recorder

on all devices is not guaranteed.

Introduction

Precautions for Disc Usage

Care of Discs to Ensure High-Quality Playback

䡵Fingerprints, dust, or any other similar contamination of the surface of a disc can lead to distortion in the playback of recorded

video and audio. For this reason, it is good practice to wipe each disc with a soft cloth before use.

䡵 Looking After Discs

● Using a soft cloth, wipe the disc gently from the inside to

the outside.

● If stubborn dirt is present on the surface of a disc, wipe first using a slightly wet cloth and then using a dry cloth.

● Paint thinners, organic solvents, analog record cleaning agents, anti-static sprays, and the like must never be used. Failure to observe this precaution can lead to discs being permanently damaged.

Additional Notes on Disc Handling

䡵Never wipe a disc using paint thinners, organic solvents,

alcohol, or record-cleaning fluid.

䡵Do not use disc protectors or scratch guards. 䡵Stickers and other types of paper label should not be applied. 䡵Do not use discs from which stickers or labels have been

removed.

䡵Do not use discs on which illustrations or text has been printed

using a commercially-available label printer. First create a disc using the unit before printing.

䡵The use of non-circular discs (i.e., heart or rectangular

shaped), warped discs, and cracked discs can lead to breakage of the DVD recorder.

䡵 Handling Discs

● Removing a disc ● Placing a disc in its case

● Correct method for holding a disc

Your hands or fingers should not come into contact with the recording surface when holding a disc.

Storing Discs

䡵Avoid storing discs in any of the following locations.

• Areas with high levels of humidity or dust, or areas where mold is present.

• Areas exposed to direct sunlight or close to heating equipment.

• Vehicle interiors during summer months.

䡵Take care to avoid dropping or knocking discs. 䡵Place discs in cases and stack these cases for storage. 䡵Discs can be deformed or cracked as a result of stacking,

leaning, or dropping when not inside a case.

DVD-R and DVD-RW Details

DVD-R : Only discs that conform with DVD-R Standard 2.0

(video mode) can be used.

DVD-RW : Discs of Version 1.1 or later can be used.

Although Version 1.1 of the DVD-RW Standards allows the selection of either video mode or VR mode for recording, this DVD recorder performs recording in video mode only. * Version 1.0 of the DVD-RW Standards does not

support video-mode recording, and for this

reason, the corresponding discs cannot be used. In terms of recording characteristics, DVD-R and DVD-RW (video mode) differ as follows.

䡵 DVD-R

• Each disc can be recorded only one. Accordingly, these discs are recommended for use in archiving or long-term storage.

• Once a disc has been finalized, it can also be played on other DVD players.

䡵 DVD-RW (video mode)

• After viewing a disc, all data can be erased and it can be used to record new content.

• Once a disc has been finalized, it can also be played on other DVD players.

• It is possible to cancel the finalization and add a recording.

䡵 Recording to unused sections of a disc and the

modification of titles or display styles can be carried out as required before a disc is finalized.

• In the case of both DVD-Rs and DVD-RWs, it is impossible to overwrite previously recorded content with new data, even if the disc in question has not yet been finalized. The deletion of specific sections of data is also impossible.

• Regardless of whether or not finalization has been carried out, it will not be possible to use this DVD recorder to record new content to a DVD-R or DVD-RW that has been recorded using other devices.

䡵 Once a disc has been finalized, it can be used as a

standard DVD and its recorded audio and video can be played on this and other DVD players.

• After finalizing, a disc’s titles can be selected from the top menu.

• Additional recording will not be possible after finalizing.

• In the case of a DVD-RW, it is possible to cancel the

finalization and add a recording.

• Although a finalized disc may in principle be played on other DVD players, certain characteristics of the disc and its recording conditions may make this impossible.

Playing Discs on this DVD recorder

This DVD recorder is capable of playing any discs that it has created and finalized.

● The following conditions may occur when attempting to play discs recorded using other devices on this DVD recorder.

• Inability to play

• Block-type noise (i.e., mosaic)

Introduction

Details Regarding Discs (continued)

DVD Data Configuration

Generally speaking, the content recorded on a DVD is separated into large units referred to as “titles”. A unique number called a “title number” is assigned to each of these titles, and as a result, any title can be immediately accessed using its title number. In addition, each title can be divided into smaller units referred to as “chapters”. Similarly, a unique number called a “chapter number” is assigned to each of these chapters, and this allows any chapter to be immediately accessed using its chapter number. Each recording made to a disc is stored as a single title. In this, each pressing of the STOP button to leave Recording mode constitutes a different recording. (This action is also referred to as “title closing”.) It is also possible to insert chapter marks to partition titles at the desired points by pressing the REC button while recording. It is possible to automatically add a chapter mark when recording is temporarily stopped by pressing the PAUSE button. (Set from the menu.) In addition, this DVD recorder can also be used to automatically insert chapter marks at regular intervals. (CHAPTER CREATION menu settings will be required for this function.)

Disc

Title 1

Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3

Chapter 1 Chapter 2

Title 2

Region Codes

One of six numbers referred to as “region codes” is assigned to DVD content to control the global regions in which this content may be viewed. If a DVD’s region code does not correspond to the region code of the DVD player being used, it will not be possible to play the disc.

● This DVD recorder assigns the region code “ALL” to the discs that it records.

● It will not be possible to play discs to which region codes have been assigned.

Screen Sizes

This DVD recorder is capable of recording video content for widescreen TVs (i.e., with a 16:9 aspect ratio). In addition, signals for normal content with a 4:3 aspect ratio, for squeezed content (i.e., where the left and right are compressed), and for letterbox content (i.e., where the top and bottom of the screen are black) can be recorded as is.

● Thumbnail creation method for use in the title/chapter menu during wide-signal input can be selected in THUMBNAIL FORM of the DVD MENU screen. (☞ Page 65)

● Before a title is closed, it will be possible to modify the style used for chapter menu display, to change the thumbnails used, and to input thumbnail names.

● Before a disc is finalized, it will be possible to modify the style used for the title menu and to input title names.
