Step 6

Finalizing & Playing on

other DVD components

To play your DVD on other DVD components,
finalizing may be necessary. First, finish all editing and
recording operations, then finalize the disc.

When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode

Although finalizing is generally unnecessary when
playing the disc on a VR Mode compatible
component, a finalized disc should be used for
playback.

When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode

The disc should be fi nalized fi rst to enable playback
on other DVD players. No more editing or recording
can be made on the disc once it has been finalized.

When using a DVD-R disc

The disc should be finalized first to enable playback
on other DVD players. No more editing or recording
can be made on the disc once it has been fi nalized.
Step 3

Recording

There are two different recording methods, Direct
Recording (recording a program you are currently
watching) and Timer Recording. Timer recording is
determined as a Date : MM/DD, MON-FRI, Every
SAT, etc. There are 5 recording modes: XP(high
quality mode), SP (standard quality mode), LP (long
recording mode), EP (extended mode) and FR
mode. When using FR mode to record, the picture
quality is determined by the remaining time on the
disc.
Step 5

Editing a recorded disc

Editing a DVD disc is easier than editing on
conventional video tapes. The recorder supports many
different editing functions, possible only with DVDs.
With a simple and easy edit menu, you can perform
various editing functions, such as delete, copy,
rename, lock, etc., on a recorded title.
With this recorder, you can create playlists using a
DVD-RAM/DVD-RW in VR mode. Once a playlist is
created you can create/edit a new playlist on the same
disc without changing the original recording.
You can finalize automatically using the EZ REC
MODE. (See page 42)
NOTE
Step 4

Playing

To start playback select the title you want to play
from the title list.
ADVD consists of sections called titles, and sub
sections called chapters.
During recording, a title is created between two
points where you start and stop recording. Chapters
will be created automatically when you finalize
recording on DVD-R/DVD-RW discs in Video mode.
