<\/div>\n
3) Under \u201cIN\/OUT REC\u201d, make sure that \u201cA\/V\u00e0<\/span>DV OUT\u201d is set to \u201cOFF\u201d.<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

*** Suggestion: play the tape using the playback deck just to be sure that the tape is working properly.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
5) Turn on the Sony DVD Recorder.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\n

6) Push the menu button in the Sony DVD Recorder and select \u201cVideo \u00e0<\/span>DVD\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
***Conversions from tape are in real time i.e., converting the tape requires the actual time it takes to play the footage.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
10) Even after all the footage has been transferred, the DVD Recorder will continue to look for video signal until the tape runs out. It will finalize everything automatically at the end of the tape. Or you can stop the recording when you have what you need.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
11) Once it finishes finalizing, the recorder will eject the DVD automatically.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
