Discs for recording

Several different formats of DVD recordable discs can be used with this recorder:

IMPORTANT!

Unrecordable pictures

Television programmes, films, video tapes, discs, and other materials may be copy-protected and therefore cannot be recorded on this recorder.

DVD±RW (DVD Rewritable)

Discs that are rewritable can be used for multiple recordings once the existing data has been erased.

DVD±R (DVD Recordable)

Discs can only be used for a single recording. Each new recording is always added at the end of all previous recordings as existing recordings cannot be overwritten.

Editing can be made on any DVD±R discs as long as they have not been finalised. It is also possible to create additional chapter markers.

To play a DVD±R on other DVD player, it must be finalised (See the chapter “Editing/ Finalising Recording – Playing your recordings (DVD±R) on other DVD players”). After this is done, no more data can be added to the disc.
