Recording an Entire DV/ Digital8 Format Tape (ONE TOUCH DUB) • The recorder automatically records a blank for five minutes before it stops dubbing. When you press x REC STOP, the recorder stops recording, rewinds the tape, and turns off. You can record the entire contents of a DV/Digital8 format tape onto a disc with a single press of the ONE TOUCH DUB button. The recorder controls the digital video camera for the whole process, and completes the recording. Example for all disc types a a b b When using a DVD-RW (VR mode), chapter marks [b] are marked where the recordings start on the tape [a] (Auto Scene Chaptering). For other discs, the recorder marks chapters either in 6 or 15 minute intervals depending on the setting in "Auto Chapter" in Features Setup (page 97). Follow steps 1 to 7 of "Preparing for recording using the DV IN jack" (page 75), then press ONE TOUCH DUB on the front panel of the recorder. The recorder rewinds the tape and then starts recording the tape contents. When the recording is finished, the recorder rewinds the tape in the digital video camera, and turns off. To stop during recording Press x REC STOP. z Hints • The date and time of the recording made with your digital video camera is assigned as the program name in the DV/D8 Edit List (page 84) (example: DV 10/25/03 10:00PM - 10/31/03 11:30PM). • If you set "Finalize Disc" to "Auto" in Features Setup (page 98), the recorded disc will automatically be finalized after recording is finished. Notes • The recorder does not start One Touch Dub when you set "Add to Edit List" to "On" (default) in Features Setup (page 98) and there are already twenty programs on the recorder. In this case, the recorder beeps and the front panel display lights up. Delete unnecessary programs from the DV/D8 Edit List menu (page 84) and repeat the steps above. • When a blank space on the tape continues for more than five minutes, One Touch Dub ends automatically. • This function may not work with certain digital video cameras. In this case, follow the instructions of "Recording From Equipment Connected to the LINE IN Jacks" (page 88). • In order for a One Touch Dub recording to be added to the DV/D8 Edit List, "Add to Edit List" in Features Setup must be set to "On" (default) (page 98). 78 Recording an Entire DV/Digital8 Format Tape (ONE TOUCH DUB)
