DVD-R

You can play DVD-R by finalizing (➡ pages 55 and 96) them on this unit, effectively making them into DVD-Video.

ºBefore finalizing…

You can record onto the available space on the disc and perform editing functions, such as giving titles to discs and programs and erasing programs.

³You cannot record to or edit DVD-R with this unit if it was recorded with another unit, whether it is finalized or not. ³You cannot record over parts that have been recorded.

³Erasing programs will not increase the disc’s available time.

ºAfter finalizing…

The video and audio is recorded according to the DVD-Video specifications, and your very own DVD-Video is created. ³The titles you entered with this unit appear as menus.

³Programs longer than 5 minutes are divided into about five-minute chapters. ³These DVD-R can no longer be recorded on or edited.

³These DVD-R can be played on other DVD players, but this is not guaranteed.

Play may not be possible due to the player you are using, the DVD-R, or the condition of the recording. Use this unit to play the disc if the player is unable.

Visit Panasonic’s homepage for more information about DVDs. http://www.panasonic.com/playDVD-R

ºRecording to DVD-R

³It takes about 30 seconds for the unit to complete recording management information after recording finishes.

³To record on DVD-R, this unit optimizes the disc for each recording. Optimizing is carried out when you start recording after inserting the disc or turning the unit on. Recording may become impossible after the disc is optimized more than 50 times.

³The first 30 seconds of a program may not be recorded if you make successive timer recordings. ³The video is recorded in a 4:3 aspect irrespective of the video signal input.

³You cannot change audio type if a DVD-R is in the unit. Select the audio type (Main or SAP) before recording by going to “MTS Selection for DVD-R Disc” in the Audio ACTION menu (➡ page 83).

³Some broadcasts carry signals that allow you to make one copy, but you cannot record these broadcasts with DVD-R. Use DVD-RAM to record these kinds of broadcast.

³Play may be impossible in some cases due the condition of the recording.

³We recommend using DVD-R manufactured by Panasonic as they have been tested to be compatible with this unit (➡ see below). Discs manufactured by other companies may not be used to full capacity.
