Title List and Chapter List Menu Overview
Using the Title List menu you can edit video content on unfinalized VR mode DVD discs, as well as video content on the internal hard disk drive (HDD). The editing features available in the Title List menu depend on whether you are editing video on a VR mode DVD, or the HDD, and whether youre editing Original content, or a Playlist. With unfinalized Video mode DVDs, there are a limited number of editing commands, including naming and erasing titles. Once a Video mode disc has been finalized, further editing is not possible. You can still use the Title List menu to select titles for playback. There are two ways to edit VR mode DVD-RW discs. You can directly edit the Original content of the disc, or you can create and edit a Playlist. The Playlist doesnt actually change any of the content on the disc, but just controls how the content is played back. Editing material recorded on the HDD is similar to editing the Original content of a VR mode DVD-RW, with similar commands for erasing and naming titles, as well as fine control over the content of chapters within titles for DVD disc. ote During recording, if you display the Title List menu for the HDD, some of the titles may appear with a mark.
