Editing Titles with the Hide Chapter Feature
As with most editing features on recorded discs, Hide Chapter is only available with DVD+RW discs, unless it is
done automatically using the Commercial Advance feature. You have to Insert a Chapter Marker at the beginning
and the end of the part of the recording you want to "hide."
Note: Since the DVD recorder adds chapter markers according to how you have them set up in the
Setup Menu, it might be a good idea to Clear All Chapter Markers before using the Hide Chapter
feature. To fi nd the Clear Chapters option, go to the Disc menu and select Disc Title Menu. Highlight the
title you want to clear chapters from, and press OK. Highlight Clear Chapters, and press OK.
1. While playing the recording (called a title), press INFO (the Info Display appears).
2. Press right arrow until the Edit icon
3. When you're at the beginning of the place you want to hide, press PAUSE. Then, highlight Insert Chapter
Marker (if the Info Display isn't on the screen, press INFO and select the Edit icon
4. Use PLAY, FAST FORWARD, or ADVANCE to go to the end of the segment that you want to hide, and
select Insert Chapter Marker again.
5. To "hide the chapter" you must be playing it. Therefore, press REVERSE or AGAIN until playback is between
the two chapter markers you just inserted. If the Info Display isn't on the screen, press INFO, select the Edit
icon, and select Hide Chapter (each time the title plays this chapter will be automatically skipped).
6. To "undo" the Hide Chapter feature for normal playback, go to the Disc Title Menu and select Play All Chapters.

Copying a digital video camcorder tape to a DVD disc

Your DVD recorder enables you to view and/or copy pictures and sound from a digital video camcorder
connected to the DV IN jack on the front of the unit. With some camcorders, your DVD recorder may control
some functions of the camcorder via this connection.
Note: DV-CAM only appears in the main menu when a digital video camcorder is connected to the DV IN
jack on the front of the unit and turned on.
1. Put a DVD+R or DVD+RW disc into the disc tray (if it's a blank disc, you'll need to wait for the DVD
recorder to initialize the disc).
2. Put the DV tape you want to transfer to disc into the camcorder and make sure it's cued up or rewound to
the beginning.
3. Connect the camcorder to the DV IN jack on the front of the unit and turn it on. Then press PLAY on the
camcorder.
4. From the DVD recorder's main menu, select DV-CAM and press OK (the pictures and sound from the
camcorder are displayed on the TV).
5. Press RECORD on the remote control or on the front of the unit to begin recording.
• To pause recording, press PAUSE.
