Initialization and Finalization

Initialization (Format)

Initialization is required when using DVD-RW discs in the Video mode. (See page 88 for details about Initialization)

When an unused DVD-RW disc is placed in the recorder immediately after it has been purchased, the recorder is set to automatically begin initializing in the VR mode. The settings can also be changed so that discs are initialized in the Video mode (page 86).

When using a DVD-RW disc in the Video mode without changing this setting, initialize the disc in the Video mode after first completing initialization in the VR mode (page 88).

Initialization causes the entire previously recorded contents of the disc to be erased.

It takes about 1 minute to 1 minute and 30 seconds for initialization to be completed.

Allowing Discs to be Played Back with Other DVD Players (Finalization)

Discs must always be finalized in order to play them back with another DVD player after having been recorded in the Video mode. (See page 88 for details about Finalization)

Finalize discs on which all recordings have been completed so that they can be viewed with another DVD player or a DVD video-compatible PC. Discs that are not finalized may not be able to be played back with other DVD players or DVD video- compatible PCs. (However, this does not guarantee that finalized discs can be played back on all DVD players or DVD video- compatible PCs.)

Finalizing a DVD-R disc prevents all recordig and editing of that disc.

Although DVD-RW discs can be re-recorded by initializing even after they have been recorded in the Video mode and finalized, all previously recorded contents are erased.

Finalizing is required if a disc recorded in the VR mode cannot be played back with a DVD-RW-compatible player. (Discs can be recorded and edited even after finalizing in the case of the VR mode.)

Finalizing takes from several minutes to about an hour. (Processing takes longer time if there is considerable available space on the disc.)

About the Contents of the Disc

Title, Chapter and Tracks

DVDs are divided into “Titles” and “Chapters”. If the disc has more than one movie on it, each movie would be a separate “Title”. “Chapters”, on the other hand, are subdivisions of titles.

Example: DVD

Title 1

 

 

Title 2

 

Chapter 1

Chapter 2

Chapter 3

Chapter 1

Chapter 2

Video CDs and Audio CDs are divided into “Tracks”. You can think of a “Track” as one tune on an Audio CD.

Example: Video CDs or Audio CD

Track 1

Track 2

Track 3

Track 4

Track 5

Recording on a DVD-RW Disc in the VR Mode

An once recording is treated as a single title (or one chapter). However, a chapter marker (division) is inserted automati- cally if the recording is paused or a scene is erased during editing. In addition, you can also insert a chapter marker (division) at your favorite scene (page 66).

Recording on a DVD-R or DVD-RW Disc in the Video Mode

An once recording is treated as a single title, and recordings are automatically divided into chapters every 3 minutes. Although the interval at which recordings are divided into chapters can be changed to either 3 minutes, 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes or off (page 86), you cannot insert a chapter at a desired scene.

NOTE

• Numbers identify each title, chapter, and track on a disc. Most discs have these numbers recorded on them, but some do not.
