FINALIZING DVD-R DISC (FINALIZE DISC)

Before You Begin

•Be sure to use the AC adapter/charger to power the DVD video camera/ recorder when finalizing a DVD-R disc. If the DVD video camera/recorder is turned off during finalization and the finalization is interrupted, incorrect finalization will result, and at worst, the disc may be damaged.

If you want to play back a DVD-R disc recorded on this DVD video camera/recorder, using a device conforming to 8 cm DVD-R disc - such as a DVD player, etc. - you must finalize the disc on this DVD video camera/recorder. (See “Terminology”, P.160)

The finalized DVD-R disc can be played on a DVD player, as “DVD Video”: The date of program will appear on the menu screen of DVD player as a title.
