Discs for recording

Two different formats of DVD recordable discs can be used with this DVD recorder:

DVD+RW (DVD ‘plus’ ReWritable)

–Discs that are re-writable can be used for multiple recordings once existing data is erased.

DVD+R (DVD ‘plus’ Recordable)

–Discs can only be used for a single recording. Each new recording is always added at the end of all previous recordings as existing recordings cannot be overwritten.

–Editing can be made on any DVD+R discs as long as they have not been finalised. It is also possible to create additional chapter markers.

–You can also delete unwanted recordings. However, the disc space occupied by the deleted recordings cannot be recovered for further recording.

–To play a DVD+R on other DVD player, it must be finalised (see page 36 “Playing your recordings (DVD+R) on other DVD players”). After this is done, no more data can be added to the disc.

IMPORTANT!
