Recording and playback may not be performed depending on the characteristics and condition of the disc used, leading to unsatisfactory results. Using discs manufactured by JVC is recommended since they have been tested to be compatible with this unit.

DVD-RAM Discs

It is only possible to use discs which conform with DVD-RAM standard Version 2.0 or 2.1.

It is impossible to record on DVD-RAM discs which do not conform to this standard. If you use a disc formatted under a different standard version, format it on this unit before use.

It may not be possible to record, play back, edit or dub a DVD-RAM disc even if it conforms to the standard if it was recorded or edited on the devices from other manufacturers or on a PC, or if it has far too many titles, or if there is very little available capacity remaining on the disc.

DVD-RAM discs recorded on this unit cannot be played back on an incompatible DVD player.

It is possible to record copy-once programmes of digital broadcasts only onto 4.7/9.4 GB DVD-RAM discs (2.8 GB DVD-RAM discs are not compatible).

DVD-R/RW Discs

It is only possible to use DVD-R discs which conform with DVD-R standard Version 2.0.

When a DVD-R/RW disc (Video mode) is finalised ( pg. 90), it can be played back on a standard DVD player as a DVD VIDEO disc.

When a DVD-RW disc (VR mode) is finalised ( pg. 90), it can be played back on a standard DVD player compatible with the VR mode of DVD-RW discs.

Before finalising —

it is possible to record on unrecorded areas of the disc, edit the disc title and programme titles, and delete programmes.

It is impossible to record or edit DVD-R/RW discs recorded on other devices even if they have not been finalised.

It is impossible to overwrite recorded areas of DVD-R discs.

Available recording capacity does not increase even if a recorded programme is deleted from a DVD-R disc.

After finalising —

After a DVD-R/RW disc (Video mode) has been finalised, it is possible to play back the recorded programmes (video and/or audio) on a standard DVD video player as a DVD VIDEO disc.

Edited titles are displayed as the

“DVD menu” in video mode. It is impossible to record, edit or delete the data either in video mode or in VR mode. Either in video mode or in VR mode, although the disc can be played back on DVD players from

other manufacturers, sometimes it may not be possible to play back

depending on the disc and recording conditions.

It is impossible to record on CD-R/RW or DVD-R discs used for authoring.

It is impossible to record onto DVD-R/RW (Video mode) discs broadcasts that allow you to copy once. The copy-once programmes can only be recorded onto DVD-RW discs formatted in VR mode.

NOTE:

The following may result if you play back a DVD-R disc recorded on another unit.

The disc does not play.
