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.
If you want to record from a digital video camera
connected to the DV IN jack, see "DV Dubbing"
on page 77. To record from equipment connected
to the LINE IN jacks, see "Recording from
connected equipment without a timer" on page 52.
Before you start...
• Select the disc type according to your needs
(page 8). This recorder can record on various
discs.
• You cannot record both the main and sub sound
on a DVD+RW, DVD-RW (Video mode),
DVD+R, or DVD-R. For bilingual programs, set
"DVD Bilingual Rec." to either "Main" (default)
or "Sub" in "Options" setup (page 95).
• Timer recordings and Synchro-Recording do not
start during dubbing. Before you start, check the
Timer List menu to see if there is any timer
recording due to start during dubbing.
• When "Auto Chapter" of "Features" setup is set
to "On," chapter marks are automatically
inserted at approximately 6-minute intervals
while dubbing from the HDD to a DVD, or when
the recorder detects picture and sound changes
while dubbing from a DVD to the HDD. The
chapter marks in the dubbing source are not
retained in the dubbed title.

• For a title whose picture size (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 47).
– 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.
z Hints
• When you dub a Playlist title, it is recorded as an
Original title.
• When dubbed from a DVD to the HDD, the picture size
and the sound types originally recorded are retained.
b
Notes
• To play a dubbed disc on other DVD equipment,
finalise the disc (page 39).

on the disc status. Follow the instructions that appear on
the screen.

Notes
• High-speed Dubbing is not available for the following
titles:

– Titles that contain both main and sub sounds (except
DVD-RWs (VR mode)).
– Titles recorded in mixed picture size (4:3 and 16:9
etc.), (except DVD-RWs (VR mode)).
• When dubbed to a DVD-RW (Video mode)/

may remain on the disc. If you edit a title, use the Rec
Mode Conversion Dubbing method. This will smooth
out the pauses between the scenes.
