Introduction
Details Regarding Discs (continued)
DVD Data Configuration
Generally speaking, the content recorded on a DVD is separated
into large units referred to as “titles”. A unique number called a
“title number” is assigned to each of these titles, and as a result,
any title can be immediately accessed using its title number. In
addition, each title can be divided into smaller units referred to
as “chapters”. Similarly, a unique number called a “chapter
number” is assigned to each of these chapters, and this allows
any chapter to be immediately accessed using its chapter
number.
Each recording made to a DVD-R or DVD-RW (video mode) is
stored as a single title. In this, each pressing of the STOP button
to leave Recording mode constitutes a different recording. (This
action is also referred to as “title closing”.)
Whenever the PAUSE button is pressed to pause recording, a
chapter mark is inserted into the current title. It is also possible
to insert chapter marks to partition titles at the desired points by
pressing the REC button while recording. In addition, your BD-
X200 can also be used to automatically insert chapter marks at
regular intervals. (CHAPTER CREATION menu settings will be
required for this function.)
● Before a title is closed, it will be possible to modify the style
used for chapter menu display, to change the thumbnails used,
and to input thumbnail names.
● Before a disc is finalized, it will be possible to modify the style
used for the title menu and to input title names.

Region Codes
One of six numbers referred to as “region codes” is assigned to
DVD content to control the global regions in which this content
may be viewed. If a DVD’s region code does not correspond to
the region code of the DVD player being used, it will not be
possible to play the disc.
● This DVD recorder assigns the region code “ALL” to the discs
that it records.
● It will not be possible to play discs to which region codes have
been assigned.
Screen Sizes
This DVD recorder is capable of recording video content for wide-
screen TVs (i.e., with a 16:9 aspect ratio).
In addition, signals for normal content with a 4:3 aspect ratio, for
squeezed content (i.e., where the left and right are compressed),
and for letterbox content (i.e., where the top and bottom of the
screen are black) can be recorded as is.
● Thumbnail creation method for use in the title/chapter menu
during wide-signal input can be selected in THUMBNAIL
FORM of the RECORDER (2/2) menu screen. (
