[Note]
≥ The contents of dubbing lists will remain in the memory even after
the power has been turned off. In the case of the DVD drive, the
contents are erased if [
< ] is pressed. However, note that if pro-
grams and play lists are erased, all the dubbing lists will also be
erased.
≥ It is not possible to activate timer recording during dubbing.
≥ Even if you select a higher picture quality recording mode than
that of the dubbing source, it will not be possible to obtain picture
quality better than the dubbing source (although selection may be
effective in combating loss in picture quality during recording).
≥ When dubbing a program, playlists made from that program will
not be dubbed.
≥ The program settings (protect, etc) are reproduced in the dubbed
material. (If you select a recording mode other than “High Speed”,
markers are not reproduced).
≥ Still pictures in programs and play lists (displayed with an in
the Dubbing select screen) cannot be dubbed. [RAM]
Some programs may not be recordable or may have limits on num-
ber of times they can be dubbed. Refer to the table below for details
about storage media and associated limits.
≥ If a program with recording limitations is dubbed from HDD to
DVD-RAM, the program is transferred (i.e. it is moved to another
storage media). The original program (including play list scenes
made from that program) are erased. When a program with
recording limitations enters a dubbing list, “
” (Transfer) is
displayed and a message screen is displayed when dubbing.
≥ Programs with recording limitations and play lists cannot be regis-
tered on the same dubbing list.
≥ Play lists made from programs with recording limitations cannot be
dubbed.
Programs and play lists currently being played back on HDD can
simultaneously be dubbed to DVD-RAM or DVD-R.

≥ Stopping dubbing in High Speed mode partway through will cancel

all other recording modes, if dubbing is stopped partway through,
the part recorded up to that point will be recorded as one complete
program.
[Note]
≥ This function works while either the program list or play list screen
is being displayed.
≥ Usually, dubbing takes place using “High Speed” mode for DVD-
RAM or the recording mode of the dubbing source for DVD-R.
However, with the following exceptions the recording mode is
changed automatically to “FR”:
— when the program will not fit onto the disc if recorded using the
recording mode of the dubbing source.
— when dubbing play lists.
≥ It is not possible to activate timer recording during dubbing.
