VR Mode: Original and playlist editing
Titles, chapters, and parts
Titles in the disc's original content contain one or
more chapters. When you insert a disc's title into
the playlist, all the chapters within that title also
appear. In other words, chapters in the playlist
behave exactly as chapters on a DVD-Video disc
do. Parts are sections of original or playlist titles.
From the Original and Playlist menu you can add
or delete parts. Adding a chapter or title to the
playlist creates a new title made up of a section
(such as a chapter) of an original title. Deleting a
part removes part of a title from the Original or
Playlist menu.
Note • When editing using the Delete, Add,
and Move functions, the start and end
frames may not be exactly as set in the
start and end point display.
• During playlist playback, you may
notice a momentary pause between
edits. This is not a malfunction.
Editing a DVD is not like editing a video tape
When you edit a video tape you need one video
deck to play the original tape and another to
record the edits. With DVD, you edit by making a
"Playlist" of what to play and when to play it. On
playback, the recorder plays the disc according
to the playlist.
Original and Playlist
Throughout this manual, you will see the words
Original and Playlist , which refer to the actual
content and edited versions of a DVD.
• Original—content refers to what is actually
recorded on the disc.
• Playlist—content refers to the edited version
of the disc, which is how the original content
is to be played.
Adding chapter markers
-RW

you want to start a new chapter, press CHP.

press THUMBNAIL. The thumbnail picture
of the title that includes the chapter is

Making a new playlist

chapter to the playlist. When you do this, the

original or playlist title or chapter" on page 27).
The title appears in the playlist complete with the
chapter markers that appear in the original.

over into the playlist title.
