●The above table is based on the information as of April 2005.

●Recording and playback may not be performed depending on the characteristics and condition of the disc used, leading to unsatisfactory results. Using discs manufactured by JVC is recommended since they have been tested to be compatible with this unit.

After finalising —

After a DVD-R/RW disc (Video mode) has been finalised, it is possible to play back the recorded programmes (video and/or audio) on a standard DVD video player as a DVD VIDEO disc.

●Edited titles are displayed as the

“DVD menu” in video mode. ● It is impossible to record, edit or delete the data either in video mode or in VR mode. ● Either in video mode or in VR mode, although the disc can be played back on DVD players from

other manufacturers, sometimes it may not be possible to play back

depending on the disc and recording conditions.

●It is impossible to record on CD-R/RW or DVD-R discs used for authoring.

●It is impossible to record onto DVD-R/RW (Video mode) discs broadcasts that allow you to copy once. The copy-once programmes can only be recorded onto DVD-RW discs formatted in VR mode.

●It may not be possible to record, play back, edit or dub a DVD-RAM disc even if it conforms to the standard if it was recorded or edited on the devices from other manufacturers or on a PC, or if it has far too many titles, or if there is very little available capacity remaining on the disc.
