About YesDVD™

YesDVD allows you to transfer your videotapes

or other video content to a DVD+R/RW with

the professional quality features found in

Hollywood movies.

Whenever you record

or copy to DVD, you

can enable YesDVD to

automatically:
• Analyze your video, creating chapters at

natural scene breaks

• Generate an interactive Disc Menu with

thumbnails of each chapter for easy scene

selection

• Produce three Music Videos using the best

footage from your video, timed to the tempo

of the music

• Allow you to print a full-color DVD case

coversheet using images from your video.

YesDVD Requirements

• Creation of a YesDVD is only possible on

the first recording from a blank DVD+R/RW

disc.

• The recording can be made from the VCR

deck or one of the external input sources

(Line1, Line2, or DV).

• No further footage can be added to a

YesDVD once recording is stopped (by

selecting STOP

).

• In order to print DVD case coversheets, you

must have a Microsoft™ Windows™-based

PC with a DVD-ROM drive and a printer.

• There is no limit to the number of YesDVD

discs you can create with this DVD

Recorder+VCR.

• To erase a finalized YesDVD on a DVD+RW

disc, start a new recording and select “Yes”

when prompted to erase the disc.

• The recommended minimum length of a

YesDVD recording is 5 minutes. If the total

recording time is less than 5 minutes, the

three Music Videos will not be created.
