Dubbing (HDD y DVD)

Before Dubbing

Video
In this section, "dubbing" refers to "copying a
recorded title on the internal hard disk drive
(HDD) to another disc, or vice versa." You can
select to dub one title at a time (Title Dubbing –
see "Dubbing a Single Title (Title Dub)" on
page 74), or multiple titles all at once (Multiple
Title Dubbing – see "Dubbing Multiple Titles
(Dub Selected Titles)" on page 75).
Before you start, read the following precautions,
which are common to both dubbing methods.
z Hint
This section deals with dubbing to and from the internal
HDD. If you want to record from a digital video camera
connected to the DV IN jack, see "DV/Digital8 Dubbing
(DV t HDD/DVD)" on page 77. To record from
equipment connected to the LINE IN jacks, see
"Recording From a VCR or Similar Device" (page 53).
Before you start...
• Select the disc type according to your needs
(page 8). This recorder can record on various
discs.
• Timer recordings do not start during dubbing.
Before you start, check the SCHEDULE list
(page 49) to see if there is a timer recording due
to start during dubbing.
• Chapter marks in the original recording do not
remain in the dubbed title. Chapter marks are
entered according to the "Auto Chapter" setting
in Features Setup (page 91).
• For a title whose aspect ratio (16:9 or 4:3) is
mixed:
– When dubbed from the HDD to DVD-RW
(Video mode) or DVD-R, the picture size is
determined by the setting in "DVD Rec.
Picture Size" (page 51).
– When dubbed from HDD to DVD+RW or
DVD+R, the picture size is always 4:3.
– When dubbed from HDD to DVD-RW (VR
mode), the originally recorded picture size is
retained.

About "Dub Mode"
With this recorder, the recording mode for
dubbing is displayed as "Dub Mode." Two
dubbing methods are available: High-speed
Dubbing and Rec Mode Conversion Dubbing.

Allows you to dub what you have stored in the
HDD to a high-speed DVD (4x-speed
DVD+RWs/2x-speed DVD-RWs/8x-speed
DVD+Rs/8x-speed DVD-Rs, or slower versions
of each disc type), without changing the recording
mode. Dubbing speed is increased when the
recording mode of the original title is of a longer
recording mode (such as SLP).
Select "Fast" when selecting the "Dub Mode" in
"Dubbing a Single Title (Title Dub)" (page 74) or

"Dubbing Multiple Titles (Dub Selected Titles)"

(page 75). The minimum required time is as
follows (approximate).
Example: When a 120 minute-title is dubbed to a
high-speed DVD-R in LP mode, dubbing becomes
12 times faster, and takes a minimum of 10
minutes. (120 minutes 12 = 10 minutes).

R
Allows you to dub from the HDD to a DVD or vice
versa, in a dubbing mode that differs from the
original recordings. For example, when you dub
an HQ title (data size is large) in SP mode, you can
reduce the data size, saving more titles using less
space.
Select a mode different from the original recording
in "Dub Mode" in the steps of "Dubbing a Single
Title (Title Dub)" (page 74) or "Dubbing Multiple
Titles (Dub Selected Titles)" (page 75).
When an HQ or HQ+ title is converted to another
mode, the recorder automatically assigns an
appropriate bit rate, thus retaining the original
picture quality as much as possible ("Dynamic
VBR Dubbing").

About "VBR"
VBR (Variable Bit Rate) is an effective method of
allocating a suitable bit amount per second. Fine
detail pictures or dynamically moving pictures are
assigned a larger amount, while static pictures are
assigned less, for optimum picture quality.
• Variable bit rate (adopted • Fixed bit rate
for this recorder)
Average distribution rate Average distribution rate

are required
z Hint
When you dub an edited title using the Rec Mode
Conversion Dubbing method, pauses between scenes are
smoothed out.
Note
The picture quality will not improve even if a title is
converted to a recording mode of better picture quality.
Dubbing restriction
Some DVD VIDEOs or TV programs contain
copy protection signals such as "Copy-Never" or
"Copy-Once." You cannot record such contents on
this recorder (only a gray, blank screen will be
recorded). Be especially careful when dubbing on
a non-rewritable DVD such as a DVD-R.
