Handling Discs - Hitachi DZ-MV350A Instruction Manual

HANDLING DISCS

Using discs
DVD-RAM and DVD-R discs are very delicate
recording media. Carefully read the following
cautions and observe them:
• When using disc on this DVD video camera/
recorder, be sure to keep it in Round DVD Holder.
• Always use a brand new disc when recording
important material.
• Be sure not to touch the disc
exposed portion, and be
careful that no dirt adheres to
it.
• If there is dust, scratch, dirt on
disc or if it is warped, the
following phenomena may occur:
Block noise in playback
image
Momentary stop of playback
image
Sound interrupted during
playback, or abnormal sound
Gray Disc Navigation screen
Disc cannot correctly be recognized
Delay between video and audio
Even if disc is normal, the above phenomena may
occasionally occur. While the ACCESS/PC
indicator is lit, do not subject disc to vibrations or
impact, and avoid using DVD video camera/
recorder at extremely high or low temperatures,
or in environment where condensation is likely
to occur.
• When recording images,
the DVD video camera/
recorder may avoid the
portions of disc where
recording is not possible,
due to dust, scratches, etc.
[It will pause + at such a
portion and automatically
restart recording (,).]
This will cause recording
to be interrupted for several seconds to several
minutes, and multiple thumbnails will be created
by one recording session as shown above. In this
case, the recordable time on disc will decrease.
• Be careful when removing the disc since the
metal of removal slot of DVD video camera/
recorder, and disc itself, may be hot.
