*1: the DVD video recording format defines the maximum number of entry points as 999: Since one entry
point is allocated to one scene, the maximum number of scenes recordable on disc with the DVD video
camera/recorder is 999.
*2: If recording is continued without editing, one scene will comprise one cell for each entry point.
When scenes are combined, only the number of entry points will decrease (only the entry point is deleted);
the number of cells will not decrease. Assume, for example, that the number of cells before scenes are
combined is 999, which is the upper limit defined by the DVD video recording format. If a scene
comprising one cell is divided at two points and the scene between the divided scenes needs to be deleted,
the cell must be further divided in order to delete. However, since the number of cells has reached the
upper limit in this case, the cell cannot be divided and the scene cannot be deleted.
