•DVD-RW/R and CD-RW/R discs recorded on a personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder may not be played back if the disc is damaged or dirty or if there is dirt of condensation on the player’s lens.

•If you record on a disc using a personal computer, there are cases in which it may not be played back because of the settings of the application software used to create the disc, even if it is recorded in a compatible format. (Check with the software pub- lisher for more detailed information.)

•Discs recorded in Video mode on this unit cannot record additionally using other DVD recorders.

•A DVD-RW disc formatted with this unit cannot be used on other DVD recorders.

•Since the recording is made by the variable bit rate (VBR) method, the actual remaining time for record- ing may be a little bit shorter than the remaining time displayed on the OSD, depending on the pic- ture you are recording.
