See Initializing a DVD-RW disc on page 40 for detailed instructions on this option.

Finalize

DVD-RW DVD-R

Finalizing ‘fixes’ the recordings in place so that the disc can be played on a regular DVD player or computer equipped with a suitable DVD-ROM drive.

See Playing your recordings on other DVD players on page 39 for detailed instructions.

Undo Finalize

DVD-RW

You can undo the finalization on Video mode DVD-RW discs recorded and finalized on this recorder. You need to do this if you want to record more material or edit material already on the disc.

If when you load a disc the message This disc cannot be recorded. Undo the finalization is displayed, use this command to be able to record on the disc using this recorder.

Select Finalize, then Undo Finalize Start from the finalize options screen.

Pioneer cannot guarantee that undoing the finalization will work with discs that were finalized on another recorder.
