The DVD recorder’s Player Menu shows how a DVD+R or DVD+RW disc menu will appear in another DVD player.

Note: not all DVD players support DVD+R and DVD+RW discs.

Disc Title Menu: available only when you’ve inserted a DVD+R or DVD+RW disc that you’ve recorded in this DVD recorder. With Disc Title Menu highlighted, press OK to access the disc’s title menu (the disc name appears on the top and each recording is listed below the disc name). For

details about the Disc Title Menu, go to Chapter 3 (page 29).

If you press OK when the disc name is highlighted, the following choices appear:

Rename Disc: Press OK when highlighted (the on-screen keyboard appears). Follow the on- screen instructions to give the disc a different name. Highlight Done when you’re finished, and press OK. You cannot select the disc name for a finalized DVD+R disc.

Erase Disc: Erases a DVD+RW disc so you can record new programming onto it. Not available for DVD+R disc.

Lock Disc: Protects contents of the DVD so nobody can record new programming onto it. If the disc is locked, this option changes to unlock. This option isn’t available for DVD+R discs.

Finalize Disc: Only appears if you have a DVD+R disc in the DVD recorder. In order for a DVD+R disc to be played in other DVD player, you must finalize it.

Make Compatible: DVD+RW discs only. If you have made edits to the disc, such as adding or deleting chapter markers or hiding chapters, this option enables the edited version of the disc to be compatible with other DVD players.

If you press OK when one of the recordings (titles) is highlighted, the following choices appear: Rename title; Play title; Play full title; Delete title; and Clear chapters.

Player Menu: shows you how a DVD+R or DVD+RW disc’s menu will appear in other DVD Players. A small still-frame from each title you record (program, show, movie) appears as a thumbnail image. Use the DVD player’s left and right arrow buttons to highlight a thumbnail so you can play the recording. If you have multiple recordings and want to get back to the beginning quickly, highlight Go to page 1 (if available on the screen) and press OK.

Note: Not all DVD players are able to play DVD+R and DVD+RW discs. Check the DVD player’s owner’s manual.

Playlist: (available for Audio CDs and DVDs): You can create a customized playlist just like you can with many CD players where you rearrange the order in which the songs play. The playlist is played via the Program Play option in the Info Display (page 38). To set up a playlist, follow the onscreen instructions.
