Others ª Playing Back on Your TV ≥Depending on your TV, nothing may be shown even if you correctly connect the Camcorder with your TV. In this case, set [AV JACK] on the [AV IN/OUT] or [INITIAL] Sub-Menu to [OUT]. ≥If you set [AV JACK] on the [AV IN/OUT] Sub-Menu to [IN/OUT], nothing will be shown on the TV screen except during playback. ≥Picture size may be displayed differently when playing back a Cinema picture on a wide-screen TV with Playback Digital Effect. ª Audio Dubbing ≥The blank section of a tape cannot be dubbed. ≥Sounds sent through the DV Terminal cannot be dubbed. ≥If a tape has a non-recorded portion when the tape is dubbed, images and sounds may be disturbed when this portion of the tape is played back. ≥If you set the tape counter back to 0 at the position where you want to stop Audio Dubbing so as to make it possible to use the Memory Stop Function (-88-), Audio Dubbing is terminated automatically when the tape reaches this position. ≥In the case of importing data recorded with Audio Dubbing to a PC using the PC's software, only the original sound (ST1) may be imported, depending on the software. ª Recording the Contents of Other Equipment ≥You cannot record on a card when recording on a tape from external input signals is in progress. Recording to a Card If you set the Mode Dial to Card Recording Mode, you can use the Photoshot function for external input signals. ≥Black streaks may appear at the 4 edges of the image. Analog-Digital Conversion ≥When the Camcorder is connected with other digital video equipment through its DV Terminal, images recorded in analog form from other external equipment can be output to the digital video equipment through the DV Terminal. ≥To DV-output analog video signals sent from other equipment, set [DV OUT] on the [AV IN/OUT] Sub-Menu to [ON]. (Normally, keep the [DV OUT] set to [OFF]. If it is set to [ON], the quality of the image may be disturbed.) ≥When using AV Cable and DV Cable (optional) at the same time, detach the Grip Belt first for easy connecting. ª Using the DV Cable for Recording (Digital Dubbing) ≥Regardless of the setting, digital dubbing is carried out automatically in the same audio recording mode as that of the playback Cassette. ≥The images on the recorded monitor may be disturbed, but it does not affect the recorded images. ≥Even if Playback Digital Effects, Playback Zoom, or Playback Title In have been used, these effects are not output from the DV Terminal. ≥Even if you use a device equipped with DV Terminals, you may not be able to perform Digital Dubbing in some cases. ≥Date or other information to be displayed cannot be displayed if the software of the connected equipment does not support the display function. ≥You cannot record on a card when recording on a tape from external input signals is in progress. ≥Disconnect the USB Cable since input signals from external input terminal cannot be recorded when the USB Cable is connected. 81
