HDD, VR Mode: Original and
Playlist Editing
Titles, Chapters and Parts
Titles in the disc's original content contain one or
more chapters. When you insert a disc's title into the
Playlist, all the chapters within that title also appear. In
other words, chapters in the Playlist behave exactly as
chapters on a DVD-Video disc do. Parts are sections
of Original or Playlist titles. From the Original and
Playlist menu you can add or delete parts. Adding a
chapter or title to the Playlist creates a new title made
up of a section (ie., chapter) of an Original title.
Deleting a part removes part of a title from the
Original or Playlist menu.
Caution
When editing using the Delete, Add and Move
functions, the start and end frames may not be
exactly as set in the start and end point display.
During Playlist playback, you may notice a
momentary pause between edits. This is not a
malfunction.
Is editing a DVD like editing a video
tape?
No. When you edit a video tape you need one video
deck to play the original tape and another to record
the edits. With DVD, you edit by making a 'Playlist' of
what to play and when to play it. On playback, the
Recorder plays the disc according to the Playlist.
About word 'Original' and 'Playlist'
Throughout this manual, you will often see the words
Original and Playlist to refer to the actual content and
the edited version.
Original: content refers to what's actually recorded
on the disc.
Playlist: content refers to the edited version of the
disc — how the Original content is to be played.

on DVD recording. You can change this interval from
the Initial Setup menu (see "Auto Chapter" on page

During recording or playing back, at the point you
want to start a new chapter, press CHP ADD.
