DISC Finalize

Finalizing ‘fixes’ the recordings in place so that the disc can be played on a regular DVD player or computer equipped with a suitable DVD-ROM drive.

Finalizing a Video mode disc creates a menu screen for navigating the disc. This is accessed by pressing DISC MENU or TITLE.

Caution

Once you have finalized a DVD-R disc, you cannot edit or record anything else on that disc. However, you can record and edit a DVD-RW disc by choosing Unfinalize.
