Selecting Styles for Title & Chapter Menu
Each recorded DVD contains title and chapter menus that provide information relating to its titles and chapters.
Whenever recording is carried out, title numbers, chapter numbers, and thumbnails are automatically generated in order to create
the title and chapter menus.
Specifically, the frames from the start of individual recordings are used as thumbnails for the title menu.
In a similar way, the frames at which chapter marks have been inserted are used as thumbnails for chapter menus. (These
thumbnails may be modified later on.) The title menu will become the top thumbnail of the chapter menu.
The term “style” is used to refer to a combination of thumbnail characteristics for the title and chapter menus. This DVD recorder
can store eight different style types, and the DVD MENU screen is used to indicate which of these types is to be used.
Making Settings in the DVD MENU screen
1.
Press the SET UP button to display the Setup Menu.
2.
Select DVD MENU from the Setup Menu and then press the SET button.
• The DVD MENU screen will appear. Within this screen, the STYLE param-
eter indicates the style type currently selected for the title and chapter
menus.
3.
Confirm the settings for the currently selected style.
Select STYLE and then press the SET button to display the corresponding
STYLE screen.
TITLE PATTERN
: The display pattern currently selected for the title
menu. Each display pattern uses different numbers,
positions, and sizes for thumbnails, in addition to dif-
ferent backgrounds.
CHAPTER PATTERN: The display pattern currently selected for chapter
menus. Each display pattern uses different numbers,
positions, and sizes for thumbnails, in addition to dif-
ferent backgrounds.
4. Use the cursor buttons ( M, N, K, and L) to select one of the eight style
types and display the corresponding STYLE screen.
5. To use a specific style, select the corresponding type number and then
press the SET button.
This type number will then be stored by the DVD recorder.
Following this, the screen’s BACK button will be highlighted. The SET button
can now be pressed to return to the DVD MENU screen.
„ If BACK is used to exit the STYLE screen without the SET button being
pressed for the newly selected type, the style setting will not be updated.
Notes
• The STYLE settings for chapter menus can be freely modified until title clos-
ing is carried out. ( X Page 47)
• The STYLE settings for the title menu can be freely modified until the DVD is
finalized. ( X Page 53)
• Each style can be freely modified and stored in the DVD recorder’s memory.
In addition, it is also possible to freely select and modify display patterns (i.e.,
the number, position, and size of thumbnails in addition to the background).
For more details regarding modification of STYLE, refer to page 37.
• In certain cases, the frames used for chapter menu thumbnails may differ
slightly from the exact frames at which the corresponding chapter marks
were inserted.
