recording in DVD-VR format.
Top menus are displayed only on equipment that supports this
feature. They cannot be played on video cameras or in this

Tip

Content is automatically divided so that the final scene fits on the disc.

editing

(→35)

, the scene cannot be recorded on multiple discs. First,

split the scene using “Dividing scenes”

(→41)

of the edit function to

reduce the size so that it can fit on a single disc, and then record the
data.
The approximate number of discs needed is displayed, but recording
may require fewer or more discs.
Discs recorded this way are for playback only. Additional content
cannot be recorded on them.
During multi-disc recording, information about the remaining content
is displayed when recording stops to load the second and subsequent
disc. To record the remaining content later, refer to this information
and select the content again, and then resume recording.
