Notes
• If you connect the output connectors of this unit to
the input connectors of the player, a humming noise
may be generated or the image may be distorted. If
these phenomena occur, set the INPUT SELECT
switch to a position where a signal is not currently
being input, or disconnect the cables.
• Distorted signals (e.g., when played back at a speed
other than normal) may not be recorded or may be
distorted.
• When you input video signals of the 4:3 aspect ratio
to the unit, black bands appear on the left and right
side of the screen on the unit.
• When you connect only the AUDIO IN jack when the
HDV indicator is lit, no audio is input. You must
connect the VIDEO IN jack at the same time or set
[VCR HDV/DV] on the [IN/OUT REC] menu to
[DV].
