Recording Additional Movies on a Finalized Disc

Recording additional scenes on a disc already finalized can be done only with DVD-RW discs. A finalized DVD-RW in VIDEO mode can be unfinalized to allow recording additional scenes and other limited editing options. With a DVD-RW recorded in VR mode you can record additional scenes without the need to unfinalize it. DVD-R discs cannot be unfinalized.

This option is only available with DVD-RW discs in VIDEO mode.

When unfinalizing a disc, always power the camcorder directly from a power outlet. The unfinalization process cannot be started if the camcorder is powered only with the battery pack.

Do not disconnect the power adapter while the disc unfinalization is in progress. Doing so can interrupt the process and result in a disc that cannot be recognized.

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