Playing and recording from a
DV/HDD camcorder
You can also play back and record video
from a DV camcorder connected to the DV
IN jack on the front panel of this recorder.
It is also possible to connect an HDD
camcorder to the recorder’s USB port and
copy the images of the HDD camcorder to
the recorder.
Important
• If you connect a second recorder using a
DV cable, you cannot control the second
unit from this one.
• You can’t control this unit remotely from
a component connected to the DV IN
jack.

Recording from a DV
camcorder
• The source signal must be DVC-SD
format.
• You can’t record date and time
information from DV cassette.
• During DV recording, if a part of the tape
is blank, or has copy-protected material
on it, this recorder will pause recording.
Recording will restart automatically
when there is a recordable signal.
However, if there is more than two
minutes of blank tape, this recorder will
stop recording and the camcorder
should stop (depending on the
camcorder).
