DVD-RW Disc Playback and Recording

Recording and playback can be performed on DVD- RW discs in both Video and VR Modes.

Once a DVD-RW recorded in VR Mode is finalised, you cannot perform additional recording.

Once a DVD-RW recorded in Video Mode is finalised, it becomes DVD-Video.

In both modes, playback can be performed before and after finalisation, but additional recording, deleting and editing can not be performed after finalisation.

If you want to record the disc in VR Mode and then record in Video Mode, be sure to execute Format. Be careful when executing Format because all the recorded data may be lost.

A DVD-RW blank disc is initialized to VR Mode when first initialized.

DVD-RW (VR mode)

-This is a format that is used for recording data on a DVD-RAM or DVD-RW disc. You can repeat record- ing, editing, deleting, partial deletion, creation of playlist, and etc.

-A disc that is recorded in this mode may not be played by existing DVD players.

DVD-RW (Video mode)

-This is a format that is used for recording data on a DVD-RW or DVD-R disc. The disc can be played by an existing DVD player once it has been finalised.

-If a disc that has been recorded in Video mode by a different manufacturer's recorder but has not been finalised it cannot be played or additionally be recorded by this recorder.

DVD-RAM Disc Playback and Recording

DVD-RAM discs come with or without a cartridge. For this product, we recommend DVD-RAM discs that come with cartridges.

Some cartridges are able to eject the disc inside. Even if you are able to eject the disc, always use the disc with the cartridge to ensure correct opera- tion.

DVD-RAM discs have a Write Protect tab in order to avoid accidental erasure of recorded data. With the Write Protect tab set to PROTECT, you can play the disc, but recording or erasing will not work. Set the Write Protect tab to UNPROTECT to format the disc or erase data.

Ensure that the recording mode is set to VR mode. Otherwise, this product will not be able to play the recording.

You cannot play a DVD-RAM in most DVD players due to compatibility issues.

Only DVD-RAM standard Version 2.0 discs can be played in this unit.

DVD-RAM recorded on this unit may not work with other DVD Players. To determine compatibility with these DVD-RAM discs, refer to the user’s manual for the player.

This unit is compatible with both non-cartridge and car- tridge DVD-RAM, but the write-protect tabs on car- tridge-type discs give better protection to your record- ings.
