Auto-Chapter Setting
The Auto-Chapter setting will serve best if it is set to
“Off”, meaning that the recorder will start a new chapter
each time you pause the recording. To do this, press the
Return Button to access the Main Menu and select
“Setup”. Arrow down to Auto-Chapter and press Enter
. Toggle the setting to “Off” using the Arrow Buttons
and press Enter .
NTSC/PAL Video Setting
It may be necessary to set your recorder to format discs
to the same color format as the camera is sending it. The
Color System options are NTSC (U.S.) or PAL (Europe).
The unit will not record if the color system conflicts with
the disc format. To set the Color System option:
1. Press the Return button to access the main menu.
2. Press the Arrows to highlight Setup and press
Enter to bring up the Setup Menu.
3. Arrow down to Color System and press Enter.
4. Use the Arrow Buttons
to highlight the correct
color system (NTSC for U.S. and PAL for Europe, for
example).
5. Press Return to go up to the Main Menu, and repeat
steps 2 and 3 of Video Display Setting
(on page 9).
The setting that is in place in the setup menu at the
time of formatting the disc determines the discʼs for-
mat. You can display either PAL or NTSC input on the
DVD
Pak
, regardless of how the “Color System” is set
in the Sony Unit. However, after you have formatted a
DVD, you can only record in the color system that
was in effect when the disc was formatted.
