Sony VBD-MA1 - Manual (Page 70)

When recording video, the length of time required for recording depends on the REC mode
setting (such as FX, HD FH, SP, etc.) on a camera 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.
Recording HD (High Definition) video
(Time required to copy a 1-hour video)
Recording SD (Standard Definition) video
(Time required to copy a 1-hour video)
z Hints
• The time required to copy with a memory card varies depending on the type of memory card.
• When a camcorder is connected to the DV IN or VIDEO IN connector on this unit, the length of time
required for recording is the same as the playback time of the video.
