High Speed Dubbing
• Copy titles recorded to HDD without any change of image

high speed dubbing with no loss of image quality of data
so there is no degradation.
• Time to dub varies according to the recording mode of
title (program) to dub or type of disc you use.
• When a blank 2X speed compatible disc is initialized with
other DVD recorder, dubbing may be done at 1X speed
even if high speed dubbing is selected.
Example: Approximate time it takes to dub when you dub
program 1 hour long
• Even if DVD-R is compatible to 4 ✕ speed dubbing the
Recorder will handle as disc compatible to 2 ✕ speed
dubbing.
• If you perform high-speed dubbing of a “Copy Once”
program, dubbing will not be done at 2 ✕-speed, even if
you use a 2 ✕-speed compatible disc.
Rate Conversion Dubbing (Constant Speed)

back titles of DVD-R/RW and dubs to HDD.

convenient when you want to fit the programs into one

the quality of original.
• Time to dub is about the same as time required to record
the title in the beginning.
