Dubbing operations
This recorder has the following dubbing functions.
High speed dubbing
You can copy recorded contents without changing
the picture and sound quality.
“High speed” means the dubbing time is shorter
than the actual time of the content.
Use this function on the purposes such as the
followings:
– when you copy a whole title to a DVD-RAM/R/
RW disc.
– when you convert a Playlist into an Original title
(produce an Original title from a Playlist)
– when you copy contents recorded in DVD-VR
mode from a DVD-RW to the HDD.
High speed dubbing of several contents - “Dub
selected items”
You can select titles and chapters and copy them
all at once.
Rate conversion dubbing
You can copy a content, changing its data size to a
different data one with which the content was
recorded.
Use this function on the purposes such as the
followings:
– When you have recorded a content on the HDD
at a high rate (“MN (Manual)”), and you cannot
copy it to a DVD-RAM disc because the data size
is too large. (
→ Reduce the data size.)
– When you recorded a content while “DVD
compatible mode” ( page 162) was set to
“Off”, and you cannot copy it to a DVD-R/RW in
the DVD-Video format; or when a DVD-RAM
disc was recorded with the other equipment
which is not compatible with this recorder’s
recording format, and you want to copy it to a
DVD-R/RW (
→ Set “DVD compatible mode” to
“Main” or “SAP”.)
Rate conversion dubbing of several parts
You can select titles and chapters and change the
data size and copy them all at once.
Use this function when you unify the compatibility
of several titles and contents all at once.
Line-U dubbing
You can record pictures recorded which is being
played.
Use this function when you want to copy contents
in DVD-R/RW recorded on other device, which
cannot show thumbnails in a CONTENT MENU
Title List, to the HDD.
All the above functions can copy data as original
digital signals. “Rate conversion dubbing” and “Line-
U dubbing”, however, needs data processing and
may deteriorate the original picture and sound
quality. Also, it is not possible to improve the picture
and sound quality by the Rate conversion dubbing at
increased bit rate.
• It is not possible to copy to a DVD-RW of DVD-VR mode.
• “High speed dubbing” between the HDD and a DVD-R/RW recorded on other equipment is not possible.
• “High speed dubbing” to a finalized DVD-R/RW is not possible.
• “Line-U dubbing” using a DVD-R/RW which was recorded on other equipment and is not finalized yet is not possible.
