Hints

You can also delete a scene by pressing DELETE on the remote control after placing the cursor on the scene you want to delete on the disc navigation screen.

To delete an unwanted part of a scene on HDD/DVD-RAM/ DVD-RW (VR mode) disc, divide the scene first, then delete the unnecessary part (p.103).

Notes

The remaining space indicator may not show any increase if the deleted amount is small (e.g. deleting a short movie, small number of stills, etc.).

The locked scenes on a card cannot be deleted (p.110).

If you delete all data on the HDD/ DVD/card, formatting the HDD/ DVD/card is recommended (p.112).
