"High speed" means the dubbing time is shorter than the actual time of the content.

B: Rate conversion dubbing You can copy content and change its data size from the original recording. Use this function on the purposes such as the followings: - When you have recorded a content on the HDD at a high rate, and you cannot copy it to a DVDRAM disc because the data size is too large. (→ Reduce the data size.) - When you recorded a content while "DVD compatible mode" ( page 154) was set to "Off", and you cannot copy it to a DVD-R/RW in the DVD-Video format; or when a DVD-RAM disc was recorded with the other equipment which is not compatible with this recorder's recording format, and you want to copy it to a DVD-R/RW (→ Set "DVD compatible mode" to "Main" or "SAP".) Rate conversion dubbing of several parts You can select titles and chapters and change the data size and copy them all at once. Use this function when you unify the compatibility of several titles and contents all at once. C: Line-U dubbing You can record pictures recorded which is being played.

All the above functions can copy data as original digital signals. "Rate conversion dubbing" and "LineU dubbing", however, needs data processing and may deteriorate the original picture and sound quality. Also, it is not possible to improve the picture and sound quality by the Rate conversion dubbing at increased bit rate. Others 97
