PRV-9000 Operating Instructions
The recorder allows one camcorder interaction at a time.
Controlling the recorder with equipment connected through the DV IN/OUT
port is unavailable. Controlling a second PRV-9000 connected to this port is
also not an option.
A few camcorders fail to accept commands sent through the DV IN/OUT port.
Some camcorders may ignore particular commands sent through this port.
Check with the camcorder’s manufacturer for support information.
The recorder outputs DVD video from the DV IN/OUT port; passing through
signals from the built-in TV tuner, CD, Video CD and other equipment is
unavailable.
Copy-protected or copy-once DVD signals are blocked from passing out
through the DV IN/OUT port.
Although digital camcorders may record as stereo 16-bit/48kHz or twin-stereo
tracks of 12-bit/32kHz, the recorder only records a single stereo track. Set DV
Input to Stereo1 or Stereo2.
Audio output from the DV IN/OUT port is limited to 16-bit.
Audio input through the DV IN/OUT port must be 32kHz or 48kHz rather than
44.1kHz.
