Close and open operations for DVD-RW discs

Close operation

You must perform the “close” operation when using a DVD-RW disc on the DV-RA1000HD to enable your computer to read data from the disc.

If you perform the full format operation with a DVD-RW disc, the DV-RA1000HD will automatically carry out the close operation.

If you perform the quick format operation, follow the steps below to perform the close operation. However, when the background format on a quick-formatted disc is complete, the DV-RA1000HD will automatically car- ries out the close operation.

After a quick-formatted disc is “closed,” you can use only the formatted area on the disc.

1From the main menu, select the DISC sub-menu, then press the ENTER key.

The DV-RA1000HD opens a disc menu.

2Select CLOSE, then press the ENTER key.

A popup message asks whether you wish to ex- ecute the close operation.

3Press the ENTER key.

The close operation starts. When it is complete, the unit displays the home screen.

•When a DVD-RW disc is “closed,” the disc status indicator on the home screen changes

from OPEN to CLOSE.

Open operation

If you “open” a DVD-RW disc that was “closed” after the quick format operation, you will be able to write data in the unformatted area. However, such an “open” disc cannot be read or written on a computer.

1From the main menu, select the DISC menu, then press the ENTER key.

The DV-RA1000HD displays a disc sub-menu.

2Select OPEN, then press the ENTER key.

A popup message asks whether you wish to ex- ecute the open operation.

3Press the ENTER key.

The open operation starts. When it is complete, the unit displays the home screen.

•When a DVD-RW disc is “opened,” the disc status indicator on the home screen changes

from CLOSE to OPEN.

•Full-formatted DVD-RW discs cannot be opened.

Adding a new project

As a disc can contain more than one project, you can also use the menu system to create a project on a disc that has already been formatted, and contains a project.

1Select the PROJECT sub-menu from the main menu.

2Highlight CREATE and press ENTER.

This brings up the screen allowing you to enter

the name and properties of a project, as de-Figure 6.4: Creating a new project scribed in the previous section.

Adding notes to a project

Add notes on artists, recording details, etc. to a project. Unlike a written disc insert or tape label, these notes will always stay with the disc. You can enter up to 1000 characters for session notes, etc.

NOTE

The DV-RA1000HD displays notes regarding a

DVD±R disc. You cannot edit these notes.
