Note

•This unit cannot record on CD-RW or CD-R discs.

•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 condensation on the player’s lens.

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

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

•It is not possible to use a DVD-RW disc formatted with this unit in another DVD recorder unless the content of the disc was also recorded with this unit.

•Since recording is performed using the Variable Bit Rate (VBR) method, the actual remaining time for recording may be a little shorter than the remaining time displayed on the OSD, depending on the picture you are recording.

Making discs playable in other DVD players (Finalise)

After recording, you must finalise the disc to play it back in other players. (See page 34.)

You cannot finalise discs in other DVD recorders.

After finalising:

•After a DVD-RW / R disc (Video mode) is finalised, a title menu is created automatically and additional recording or editing is not possible.

•Even if after a DVD-RW disc (VR mode) is finalised, additional recording or editing is possible.

•To play back in other DVD players, finalise discs recorded on this unit.
