RDR-GX7 Technical Notes Chapter 4-2 DV Edit Although fast random access is a special ability of disc media, when dubbing from a camcorder to a DVD disc, without any marked points in the content, searching and editing cannot be easily performed. However, with the RDR-GX7, when the content is Auto Scene Chaptering dubbed onto a DVD-RW disc in VR mode, the Auto Scene Chaptering function puts a chapter mark at the beginning of each scene* of the DV recording. Thanks to this function, after dubbing the DV content onto disc, it can be played back with random access capability, and editing operations can be performed. When the content is dubbed onto a DVDRW (Video mode), +RW or -R disc, chapter marks can be automatically inserted at either 6-minute or 15minute intervals Auto Scene Chaptering DVD-RW (VR mode) only Create chapters automatically adapted to shooting points by the camcorder Rec Start Rec Stop Rec Start Dubbing -RW (VR) 12 3 VR VIDEO 4 5 Auto chaptering 2002/01.Apr PM02:18 Rec Stop Rec Start 2002/01.Apr PM04:40 Rec Stop Rec Start 2002/01.Apr PM06:35 Rec Stop Rec Start 2002/03.Jul AM11:32 2002/04.Jul PM03:02 Read the shooting points on DV (the break points of the recorded date and time data) and create chapters automatically. *On formats other than - DVD-RW (VR mode), Auto Chaptering at 6 min. or 15 min. intervals *On each video sector of a tape recorded in the DV or Digital 8 format, various forms of data called "auxiliary data" are recorded together with the video images. The recorded date and time is one example. The data for the recorded date and time is automatically recorded together with the image, so at each stop-to-start point, the recorded date and time data is not continuous. The RDR-GX7 takes this time data gap and records it when dubbing to DVD, and at each point a chapter mark is automatically inserted. 15
