i can't manually set chaptermarkers

[murryvid]

can someone please help me find a recorder which allows me to set manual chapter markers in -r, -rw, +r, and +rw?

liteon lvw-5005 supports all those things

[murryvid]

what about the "vr" mode

[solidsnake]

+vr mode, if thats what your asking

but will i be able to play the the disc recorded in +vr mode in other dvd players?

[solidsnake]

I'm a recording noob, so I can't really answer your question about +vr compatability, but when I read about it, it seemed alot of new players are compatable with it. I have 4 other dvd players in my house, none of which have problems with +vr, but they are picky about + and - media, as well as rw media. Like my toshiba player plays -R media flawlessly in +vr, but not +R media. My cyberhome dvd300 plays everything I record, my ps2 plays everything, and my xbox has trouble with something, forgot what it was. And my rca player I bought years ago plays +vr dvds.

No. According to the manual, the 5005 supports only automatic chapter markers (constant intervals) , no manual chapter markers.

actually it does
there is no mention of it in the manual thought
i think you just press or hold the edit botton or something like that

Do you know, if those manual chapter markers will also be found, if the DVD is played back in normal DVD players?

[solidsnake]

yes the manual chapters will work on other dvd players. I've done it many times

I can stick chapter markers anywhere I want in my Philips machine and they are readable in a DVD player once the DVD us finalized of course.....or protected in the case of an RW.

An un-documented feature of most LiteOn/ILO recorders is pressing the EDIT button while recording to insert a manual chapter mark.

Actually, this is documented on the bottom of page 16 in the manual:

"Notes:
During recording, press [EDIT] to add chapter mark(s) in the recorded session manually."

Too bad there isn't a feature where CHAPTER marks can be displayed in the Menu the same
way as TITLE icons. ***- tac7.
