Sony VRD-MC10 - Manual (Page 76)

76
When recording video, the length of time required for recording depends on the REC mode setting (FH,
XP, HQ, SP, or LP) used to shoot the video and the number of scenes the video contains. Typically, more
time is required to record videos onto a disc if the video was recorded with a higher image quality (bit
rate) setting. The chart below provides a general estimate of time required to record for Sony devices.
Recording HD (High Definition) video
(Time required to copy a 1-hour video in SP mode on a disc)
Recording SD (Standard Definition) video
(Time required to copy a 1-hour video in SP mode on a disc)
z Hint
• When a camcorder is connected to the DV IN, VIDEO IN or S VIDEO IN connector on the DVDirect, the length of
time required for recording is the same as the playback time of the video.
b Note
• You cannot record HD (High Definition) video taken in REC mode at a bit rate exceeding 18Mbps, such as in [HD FX]
mode (for example, High Definition Handycam
®
) in AVCHD format. For REC mode or bit rate, refer to the operating
instructions of your camera.
