Starting and Stopping Recording
Recording can be started and stopped either
manually or automatically.
Recording automatically stops whenever the
recording destination runs out of recording capacity.
Also, recording will not start if the medium has no
recording space available. When recording to DVD,
recording will not begin after 99 titles have been
recorded to a single disc, even if the disc has
recording capacity remaining. When performing
continuous recording to hard disk drive, a single clip
can contain a maximum of 100 hours of recording
time.
Note:
When recording to DVD, if the unit is left in the
recording standby mode for 1 hour or more, the unit
will automatically switch to STOP mode to prevent
damage to the system.

Manual Recording
Starting and stopping manual recording is performed
with the front panel’s
REC
and
STOP
buttons.
During recording, the
PAUSE
button can be
pressed to temporarily interrupt the recording. From
the pause mode, press
REC
button again to resume
recording, and the recording will be a continuous part
of the clip (title) begun before the pause. During
recording, the front panel’s
REC
button will light,
and during the pause mode, both the
REC
and
PAUSE
buttons will light.
When manual chapter mark insertion is selected,
chapter marks can be entered at desired locations by
using the main unit’s front panel
ENTER
button, the
remote control unit’s
ENTER
button, or the Enter
key on a connected keyboard. A chapter mark is also
inserted when the
PAUSE
button is used to set the
unit to recording standby. If automatic chapter mark
insertion has been selected, a chapter mark will be
inserted automatically after each set interval. In this
case, no chapter mark will be inserted at a recording
pause position. The session from recording start to
recording stop will be considered an independent
title (clip).
Note 1:
When the
STOP
button is used to terminate
recording, between several and several dozen
seconds (when recording to DVD) are required to
completely stop recording after the button is
pressed. Recording cannot be restarted until after
this operation is completed. During the period after
the
STOP
button is pressed until recording stops
completely, the
STOP
button will flash.
Also, when performing recording to an unused or
full-blank formatted DVD-RW disc, more time may
be required until STOP is completed.
Note 2:
In theory, up to 99 chapter marks can be inserted for
a single title (clip), but no more than that number can
be inserted, no matter what method is used.
