Recording Additional Movies on a Finalized Disc – [UNFINALIZE]

You can record additional movies after the finalization by unfinalizing an already finalized DVD-RW disc in VIDEO mode.

Disc type: DVD-RW initialized in VIDEO mode.

Be sure to unfinalize the disc in normal room temperatures. If the procedure was not completed correctly due to high temperature, let the camcorder cool off before resuming operation.

Place the camcorder on a table or other stable surface before starting the procedure. Subjecting the camcorder even to slight impacts (for example to place it on a table or to disconnect the AV cable) after the unfinalization process started may result in permanent data loss.

Always power the camcorder using the compact power adapter. The operation cannot be started if the camcorder is powered only with the battery pack.

Avoid the following actions while the operation is in progress. Failing to do so can interrupt the process and result in permanent data loss.

-Do not move the camcorder.

-Do not disconnect the compact power adapter.

Only discs that were finalized using this camcorder can be unfinalized with this camcorder.
