Title & Chapter Menu Settings
Changing Chapter Menus (THUMBNAIL EDIT Screen)
This DVD recorder can automatically create title and chapter menus as recording operations are started and stopped.
Title and chapter menus are created using the following.
• Chapter thumbnails
: The frames at which chapter marks have been inserted are used as thumbnails.
• Title thumbnails
: The frames at the start of individual recordings are used as thumbnails. As a result, a title's thumbnail
is the same as that of its first chapter.
• Display style
: Menus are created using the style set using the DVD MENU screen. (Styles determine factors such as
thumbnail positioning and background)
After chapter menus have been created in this way, it will be possible to modify thumbnails and styles, or to insert new names and
comments.
In specific terms, the editing of chapter menus is carried out using the THUMBNAIL EDIT screen that appears when recording of
a title is ended.

THUMBNAIL EDIT screen
When initially displayed, the THUMBNAIL EDIT screen contains thumbnails for up to six recorded chapters in the order that they
were recorded. The seventh and subsequent thumbnails are displayed on the following pages.
• This initial screen can be used to change a chapter's thumbnail or to input names and comments.
• Operations on this screen can be carried out using the front panel buttons or a keyboard.
Front panel : Select using the j, i, g, and h buttons, and confirm the selection using the SET button.
Keyboard
: Select using the arrow keys and confirm the selection using the Enter key. The input of names and comments is
also carried out using the keyboard.
This button is used to close a
disc's titles when editing has been
completed. As such, it should not
be used until all other operations
have been completed.
When title close processing has
ended, the display will return to the
E-E screen, and subsequent editing
of chapter menus will not be possi-
ble.
