Also, to createseveral tracks from one recording (for example, whenmaking a live recording), you can use the file dividefunction (see “Dividing files” on page 37).4 Press STOP to finish recording.CAUTIONThe DISC indicator continues to flash for a few secondsafter recording has finished. Do not cut off the powerto the DV-RA1000 while the indicator is flashing, or therecording may be corrupted.Recording modeIt is possible to assemble a single track from a num-ber of recording sessions. In other words, stoppingrecording and restarting does not automaticallyincrement a new track.NOTEThis function is only available with DVDs recorded inPCM mode.This function is called the “recording mode” and it isavailable from the virtual front panel (see “The vir-tual front panel (VFP)” on page 17), as well as fromthe dedicated REC MODE key on the RC-RA1000remote control unit.Normal (or N on the virtual front panel) means thatstopping and restarting recording will add a new fileto the disc.Assemble (or A on the virtual front panel) meansthat recordings will be “assembled”. If the playbackposition when record ready is entered is at the end ofa track, the new material will be added to the end ofthat track. Note that the original track does not haveto be the last track recorded in the project.If the playback position when recording starts inassemble mode is part of the way through a track, theoriginal track from that position to the end of thetrack will be replaced by the new material.Playing back filesUse the DV-RA1000 in much the same way as a CDplayer when playing back the files recorded on DVD.Repeat functions, etc. will work as with CDs.Play listsA play list is a list in which files are assigned totracks on a DVD disc. Unlike a programmed play-back list (see “Programmed playback” on page 23),each file in a play list must appear once (and onlyonce).TIPOnly one play list per project can be created, but it ispossible to program a play list so that the tracks areplayed in a different order or tracks are missed out, etc.Play lists are created from the files present in aproject in the following way:1 Press MENU and use the wheel and ENTER toselect the DVD menu. From there, select the EDITsub-menu.2 From this sub-menu, select PLAYLIST.3 Use the wheel to highlight a file.4 Use the F1 (up) and F2 (down) keys to movethe highlighted file up and down in the playlist order.5 Press ENTER when done.Figure 5.5: Editing a play list
