Erasing and Editing
Before Editing
This recorder offers various edit options for
different disc types. Before you edit, check the
disc type in the front panel display, and select the
option available for your disc (page 8).
Notes
• You may lose the edited contents if you remove the disc
or a timer recording starts while editing.
• DVD discs created by DVD video cameras cannot be
edited on this recorder.
Edit options for the HDD and DVD-
RWs (VR mode)
You can enjoy advanced edit functions. First you
have two options for the HDD and DVD-RWs
(VR mode): editing either the original recording
(called the “original”), or the playback
information created from the original (called a
“Playlist”). Since each is different in nature and
offers different merits, read the following and
select the one that better suits your needs.
To edit original titles
Edits made to the original titles are final. If you
plan to retain an unaltered original recording,
create a Playlist to edit (see below). The edit
functions available for original titles are:
– Labelling a title (page 72).
– Setting protection against erasure (page 72).
– Erasing a title (page 72).
– Erasing multiple titles (page 74).
– Erasing a section of a title (A-B Erase) (page 73).
– Erasing all titles on the disc (page 75).
– Erasing a chapter (page 73).
– Dividing one title into two titles (HDD only)
(page 74).
To create and edit Playlist titles
A Playlist is a group of Playlist titles created from
the original title for editing purposes. When you
create a Playlist, only the control information
necessary for playback, such as the playback
order, is stored on the disc. Since the original titles
are left unaltered, Playlist titles can be re-edited.
Example: You have recorded the final few
matches of a football tournament on a DVD-RW
(VR mode). You want to create a digest with the
goal scenes and other highlights, but you also want
to keep the original recording.
In this case, you can compile highlight scenes as a
Playlist title. You can even rearrange the scene
order within the Playlist title (“Creating and
Editing a Playlist” on page 76).
The advanced edit functions available for Playlist
titles are:
– Setting protection against erasure (HDD only)
(page 72).
– Labelling a title (page 72).
– Erasing a title (page 72).
– Erasing multiple titles (page 74).
– Erasing a section of a title (A-B Erase) (page 73).
– Rearranging the title order (DVD-RWs (VR
mode) only) (page 77).
– Dividing a title into multiple titles (page 74).
– Combining multiple titles into one title
(page 77).
– Erasing a chapter (page 73).
z Hint
You can display the disc’s Playlist titles in the Title List
(Playlist), or the original titles in the Title List (Original).
To switch the two Title Lists, press TOOLS while a Title
List is displayed, and select “Original” or “Playlist.”
