Dubbing to Other Equipment

This section describes the connections and settings
necessary to perform dubbing on other equipment, using
the unit as a video player.

Connections for Dubbing

To digital video equipment with an i.LINK
jack
Connect the unit to the recorder as shown on the right
using an i.LINK cable.
The signal flow is automatically detected so you do not
need to make separate connections for input and output.
Also, by connecting the unit to an editing controller via
the HDV/DV jack, you can configure a digital non-
linear editing system.
For connections of the editing controller and the unit, refer to
the editing controller instruction manual.
Before dubbing, you must set the format in which you
want to output signals. Make [HDV/DV SEL] (page 50)
and [i.LINK SET] (page 51) settings in the [IN/OUT
REC] menu.
For details, refer to "Major Differences among HDV1080i,
DVCAM, and DV Formats" on page 24 .
For details on i.LINK output formats, see page 72.
To dub a tape recorded in HDV format using the
duplicate function on other units such as the DSR-25/
45/50, select [DVCAM] in [HDV t DV CONV] of
[i.LINK SET] in the [IN/OUT REC] menu.
