About DVD-R and DVD-RW disc

How are DVD-R and DVD-RW discs different?

The essential difference between DVD-R and DVD-RW is that DVD-R is a record-once medium, while DVD-RW is a re-recordable/erasable medium. You can re-record/ erase a DVD-RW disc approximately 1,000 times.

Can I play my recordable discs in a regular DVD player?

Generally, DVD-R discs and DVD-RW discs recorded in Video mode are playable in a regular DVD player, but they must be ‘finalized’ first. This process fixes the con- tents of the disc to make them readable to other DVD players as DVD-Video discs.

DVD-RW discs recorded in VR (Video Recording) mode are playable in some players.

This indicates a product feature that is capa- ble of playing DVD-RW discs recorded with Video Recording format.

DVD-Video Format (Video mode) is a new format for recording on DVD-R/RW and DVD+R/RW discs that was approved by the DVD Forum in 2000.

Is editing a DVD like editing a video tape?

No. When you edit a video tape you need one video

 

deck to play the original tape and another to record the

 

edits. With DVD, you edit by making a ‘Playlist’ of what

INTRODUCTION

to play and when to play it. On playback, the recorder

 

plays the disc according to the Playlist.
