If the disc has no area for control data to be written, recording may not be possible. To prevent this, do not insert a DVD-R or DVD-R DL which has been recorded on more than 50 times.

Do not insert a DVD-R or DVD-R DL recorded on this unit that has not been finalized into a recordable device, such as a DVD recorder. The recorded data may be damaged.
