You can use the front sockets to copy
camcorder recordings. These sockets are
located behind the flap on the right hand
side.

Option 1: Using DV IN socket

(for DVDR615 and DVDR616 only)
Use this connection if you have a Digital
Video or Digital 8 camcorder. The DV
socket will conforms to the i.Link
standard. It provides the best picture
quality.

Use an i.LINK 4-pin cable to connect the
DVD recorder's DV IN socket to the
appropriate DV output socket on the
camcorder.
Before start operating, select 'CAM 2' as
the input channel.
For recording, see pages 38~39.
Helpful Hints:
– You can also use the DV IN to connect the
DVD recorder to a Personal Computer that
has a DV output socket. The PC must have
an IEEE 1394 Firewire connector.
– The DV socket on this recorder can only
receive input signals, it cannot output signals.
