Pioneer DVR-440H-S manual 103

Copying and backup 09

You can use a DVD-R ver. 2.0 or 2.1 disc, or DVD-RW ver. 1.1 or ver. 1.2 disc for the backup.

•If you backup a DVD-R disc to DVD-RW, you cannot undo the finalization later.

•Actual recordable capacity of discs vary so there may be cases where the contents of the disc you’re backing-up will not fit on to a particular blank disc. If this happens, please try another brand of disc.

•DVD-R/-RW discs can only be backed up to DVD-R/-RW discs; DVD+R/+RW discs can only be backed up to DVD+R/ +RW discs.
