Digital Connection to an MD to Record a CD
Some Audio CDs have a short silent section between musical tracks.When sound from discs such as these is digitally recorded by connecting theVCR/DVD directly
to a digital recorder (such as an MD recorder), the music may be recorded continuously and track numbers may be lost.
C
Digital Connection to Audio Equipment or MD Recorder without a Dolby Digital Decoder
• Audio CD
Audio CDs can be transferred digitally to other equipment such as an MD recorder, play the disc as you would normally with the audio mode set to
“L+R” and use the connection shown above.
• DVD
DVDs recorded in Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround sound or MPEG Audio cannot be connected digitally to external recording equipment such as an
MD recorder. The audio source on a disc in a Dolby Digital 5.1 channel surround format cannot be recorded as digital sound by an MD recorder. It may
be possible to record Dolby Digital or MPEG Audio via a digital connection if theVCR/DVD output is set to “OFF” for “DOLBY DIGITAL” or “MPEG”
(see page 17 “Audio Settings”).
