Copyright precautions
On recording
You cannot record any software having copyright protection signals on
this VCR. If you start recording protected video and audio signals, a
warning message appears on the monitor screen and the VCR stops
recording.
For DSR-30P only: If you record a programme using timer, that is
encoded with copyright protection signals, the VCR will continue
recording but the video and audio signals will not be recorded on tape.
On playback
When you play back software having copyright protection signals on
this VCR, you may not be able to copy it onto other equipment.
Limitations caused by the difference in format
This VCR can record, play back and edit the tapes recorded in DVCAM
format. It can also play back the tapes recorded in DV format (SP mode).
However, due to the difference in format, you may not be able to
record or edit some tapes affected by recording conditions of the tape
(e.g., A tape originally recorded in DV format is dubbed in DVCAM
format.)
For details, refer to "Compatibility of DVCAM and DV format" on page
58.
No compensation for contents of the recording
Contents of the recording cannot be compensated for if recording or
playback is not made due to a malfunction of the VCR, video tape, etc.
