DV Record Audio
You need to set this if you have a camcorder using
32kHz/12-bit sound connected to the front panel DV IN
jack.
Some digital camcorders have two stereo tracks for
audio. One is recorded at the time of shooting; the other
is for overdubbing after shooting.
On the Audio 1 setting, the sound that was recorded
while shooting is used.
On the Audio 2 setting, the overdubbed sound is used.
Auto Chapter
During recording, chapter markers are added automati-
cally at fixed intervals. You can set this interval to 5 min-
utes or 10 minutes. To turn off automatic chapter mark-
ing, select “None”.
