Note

This recorder cannot record CD-RW or CD- R discs.

DVD-RW/R and CD-RW/R discs recorded on a personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder may not play if the disc is damaged or dirty or if there is dirt of condensation on the player’s lens.

If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a compatible format, there are cases in which it may not play because of the settings of the application software used to create the disc. (Check with the software pub- lisher for more detailed information.)

Discs recorded in Video mode on this unit cannot record additionally using other DVD recorders.

A DVD-RW disc formatted with this unit cannot be used in other DVD recorders without any recording using this unit.

Since the recording is made by the variable bit rate (VBR) method, depending on the picture you are recording, the actual remaining time for recording may be a little shorter than the remaining time dis- played on the OSD.
