Playing your recordings on other DVD players (finalizing a disc)

Most regular DVD players can play finalized discs recorded in Video mode, finalized DVD+R, or DVD+RWs. A small number of players can also play DVD-RWs recorded in VR mode, finalized or not. Check the manual that came with the other player to check what formats it will play.

Finalizing “fixes” the recordings and editings in place so that the disc can be played on a regular DVD player or computer equipped with a suitable DVD-ROM drive.

Finalizing a Video mode disc creates a menu screen for navigating the disc. The menu can be accessed by pressing DISC MENU/LIST or

TITLE.

To finalize a disc, refer to “Disc Settings” on page 16.

Note	•	Unfinalized DVD+RWs are playable on
		regular DVD players.
	•	The edited contents of a DVD+RW
		disc is compatible with regular DVD
		players only after finalization.

•The edited contents of a DVD+R disc is not compatible with regular DVD players. (Hide, chapter combine, added chapter mark, and so on.)

•How long finalization takes depends on the type of disc being finalized, how much is recorded on the disc, and the number of titles on the disc.
