When using an 8x disc.

• When you feel that the operating noise is a nuisance (e.g,

late at night), select High-speed dubbing (Up To 12x) or

• The time required for High Speed Dubbing varies

according to the recording mode of title (programme) to
dub or type of disc you use.

• When a new (unused) 2x or 4x compatible DVD-RW disc

is initialised with another DVD recorder, dubbing may be
performed at 1x speed even when High Speed Dubbing
is selected.

• If you perform High Speed Dubbing of a “Copy Once”

enabled programme, dubbing will not be done at 2x- or
4x-speed even if you use a 2x- or 4x- compatible disc.

• During High Speed Dubbing, you cannot monitor the

programme being dubbed on the TV screen. (You can
only watch live broadcast.)

• Do not interrupt the High Speed Dubbing. If you stop in

the middle of process, the recorded title might be erased.

• You cannot High Speed Dub a Playlist to a Video format

edit frames of titles recorded to HDD using High Speed
Dubbing. You can edit the frames after the cancellation.

• Once you cancel the High Speed Dubbing Priority to a

title, you cannot set it again for that title.

• When you record a programme with bilingual broadcast

with “HI SP DUB SETTING” set to “YES”, either “L CH” or
“R CH” audio which is selected in “BILINGUAL SETTING”
(page 104) is recorded. You cannot record both L and R
channels.

• When recording 16:9 size image in LP, EP or MN1-17

recording modes with “HI SP DUB SETTING” set as
“YES”, the image will be recorded as 4:3 (squeezed).

• Titles recorded on DVD with a DVD recorder of another

manufacturer than Sharp may not be used for High Speed
Dubbing. If such a title emerges during the process, the
dubbing stops and the remaining titles will not be
dubbed.
