Introduction

1Disc initialization clears all the recordings on the disc and restores the free space on the disc to its initial value so you can use the same disc again. DVD-R and DVD-R DL discs cannot be initialized.

2Disc finalization is the processing of the free space (the unrecorded area) on the disc in order to make it playable on external DVD devices ( 77). To finalize a DVD-R DL disc, the camcorder has to process both layers. Therefore, and depending on the amount of free space on the disc, this process may be lengthy.

3Playback cannot be guaranteed with all external DVD devices.

4You will need to unfinalize the disc first.
