Restriction On Copying Digital Material; Scms (Serial Copy Management System) - JVC XL-R5000BK Instructions Manual

Restriction on Copying Digital Material

Due to copyright and other considerations, the following restriction
is now in place for CD-R and CD onto which the digital signals of
CDs have been copied.
SCMS (Serial Copy
Management System)
The digital quality of CDs and other digital media can be recorded
to CD-R and CD-RW using the CDR function of this unit. How-
ever, it is not possible to make a second generation digital copy
from a first generation copy. This restriction, known as SCMS
(Serial Copy Management System), is intended to prevent unlim-
ited digital copying in the interests of artists and other copyright
holders.
This unit is designed to comply with SCMS restrictions.

The copyright laws allow recordings to be made for the personal
enjoyment of the individual user but they do not allow such record-
ings to be used for other any purposes without permission from the
holder of the copyrights.
Note
• If digital recording of a first generation digital copy is
attempted, "SCMS PROTECT" appears in the display window,
and the recording operation is canceled.
• In the case of Synchronized Recording, Listening Edit Record-
ing and Program Edit Recording, when the first generation copy
is a finalized CD-R or CD-RW loaded in the 3-CD changer, the
recording type is automatically changed from digital to analog,
and the recording type indicators light accordingly. (If high
speed dubbing was turned on, it will be turned off when the
recording type is changed.)
