Some digital camcorders have two stereo tracks for audio. One is recorded at

On the Audio 1 setting, the sound that was recorded while shooting is used.
On the Audio 2 setting, the overdubbed sound is used.

bilingual program.

Auto Chapter – When DVD recording, chapter markers are added
automatically in every specified interval (5, 10 or 15 min.).
Disc Record Mode – When recording a signal from analog or the DV input, you
can choose a color system (NTSC or PAL). Normally set to [PAL] because this
recorder's color system is PAL. Set this option to [NTSC] to view or record
NTSC signals form external inputs (AV1-2 or DV).
