Anyone have tips on the best way to dub a 2 disc LD to DVD-R as seamlessly as possible? I'm still new to the E80 and I can only think of two ways to dub LDs for DVD-R backup.
1. in real time to DVD-R hitting pause at the side flip and disc change. . . UGH!
2. transferring to the HD then using shorten segment to remove the side flip (quick on my CLD-99). transfer the second disc to a separate program and joining the two segments together in a playlist for dubbing to DVD-R.
Neither approach seems ideal -- for #1, don't have the time to baby a transfer (I do a lot of overnight transfers to the HD). For #2, in my experience (novice) in editing down TV shows on the E80 HD, there is always about a 2 second pause at the point where the program is shortened. I can live with that as it's still a bit shorter than the side flip alone, but wondering if there is a better, more seamless way. Loved the flying erase head I had on my old JVC 4700 SVHS since I could really get a seamless dub of a LD. . .
Lovin' the E80 BTW!!!! Best $382 I've spent on electronics in a long time!!!!
Thanks again!
