Sony PCV-RX780 Manual

❑

Do not use DVgate™ software when the connected digital video device is in 
Timer Recording mode, as this could produce a malfunction in the device.

❑

Avoid recording problems, such as a single frame appearing in multiple 
frames, by closing other applications on your system while recording. 

❑

You cannot use different audio modes on the same tape. If you have AVI files 
that use different audio modes, they cannot be recorded at the same time, but 
must be recorded separately.

❑

DVgate software features do not support working with AVI files that are 
smaller than 4 MB.

❑

DVgate software does not support hard disk compression. 

❑

Video and audio data are not available while you are recording, in order to 
maximize recording capabilities.

❑

If DVgate software indicates that frames are dropped, try closing all open 
applications, or defragmenting your hard drive.

Your VAIO® computer may not have Adobe® Premiere® software preinstalled. 
If you subsequently purchase and install this software on your computer, you 
must install a plug-in to ensure compatibility with the DVgate software.

Install the plug-in for Adobe Premiere 6.0 by following these steps:

Click Start in the Windows® taskbar and then click Run. The Run window 
appears.

Click Browse and navigate to your C: drive, using the Look in: drop-down 
list.

Double-click Program Files, double-click Sony, and then double-click 
DVgate.

✍

You can record only AVI files. MPEG files cannot be recorded.
