COMBINING MULTIPLE SCENES (EDIT – COMBINE)
If you have recorded numerous short scenes, combining them will be facilitated by the use of Disc 
Navigation.
Be sure to select consecutive multiple scenes: When using the HDD or a DVD-RAM, combining 
scenes is possible only when “Category: All” is specified (p. 109). Stills cannot be combined.

The cursor will change to double frames of

After Yes or No setting, the “Combine

selected range and the “OUT” effect on the last scene 
will be attached to a combined scene.
• Scenes in different programmes (different recording 
dates) cannot be combined: Create a play list first, 
and then combine such scenes on the play list (see 
page 97).
• When using the HDD, scenes with different VIDEO 
Modes or 16:9 mode cannot be combined.

, the 
dubbed marks will appear on the combined scene.
• If you combine scenes with and without dubbed mark 
, the dubbed mark will not appear on the combined 
scene.
ARRANGING ORDER OF SCENES (EDIT – MOVE)
You can arrange scenes within a play list by moving them to desired positions (p. 102). Create a play 
list first, and then arrange the scenes [“CREATING NEW PLAY LIST (CREATE)”, p. 97].
