Digitally Dubbing Signals In Hdv/Dvcam/Dv Format - Sony HVR-1500A Operating Instructions Manual

Digitally dubbing signals in HDV/
DVCAM/DV format
Notes
• The maximum recording time differs depending on the
recording format even if using a tape with the same
maximum recording/playback time (see page 40). To
carry out dubbing, set the recording format to the format
output from the player, or use a tape with longer
maximum recording/playback time for recording.
• In the case of a recorded tape including a combination of
HDV format and DVCAM/DV format, select one format
and dub the tape. The recording sections in the format
not selected are recorded as a blank signal.
• In the case of a recorded tape including a combination of
DV (SP) format and DVCAM format, the tape can be
dubbed with the mixed formats, but where the format
changes, disturbance of the recording may not be the
same as on the original tape.
• It is not possible to dub a tape recorded in DV (LP)
format by using the procedure described in this section.
• If the source tape begins with a section in which no
signals are recorded, the corresponding no-signal section
created at the beginning of the tape recorded on this unit
may have a different length depending on the digital
format of the source tape or the recording format
selected on this unit. During dubbing, if the digital
format of the source tape changes, no signals are
recorded until the initial digital format is restored. No
signals are recorded also when the digital format used on
the player is DV (LP).
• Regardless of the audio recording mode setting of this
unit, the audio signals are dubbed in the same mode as
on the source tape (2 channels at 48 kHz or 4 channels at
32 kHz).
• Approximately the last 2 minutes of the source tape may
not be copied because of difference in tape length. (Even
if an index picture is recorded in this portion, it may not
be copied.)
• A continuous recorded section of approximately 5
seconds is required before the recording start point. It is
recommended that a color bar or other appropriate signal
is recorded in advance from at least 5 seconds before the
recording start point to beyond the recording start point.
