NOT FINALIZE

Disc information provides you with the remaining time on the disc, titles that have been recorded and other information. It is recommended to check disc information before recording.

Disc information can be displayed while the disc is stopped by pressing ON SCREEN (page 28).

Up to 99 original titles and Playlist titles each can be created on VR mode discs. Up to 99 titles can be created on Video mode discs.

Although the number of chapters that can be created on a single disc varies according to available memory space, it is generally around 200 chapters. However, only up to 50 unerasable chapter marks (chapter marks that are automatically created when a part has been added or erased) can be created on a single disc.

When an unrecordable disc has been loaded onto the recorder, the remaining recording time is displayed as “0h00m” and blinking. In addition, the remaining recording time is displayed as “0:00” and blinking when the on-screen display is set to “ON”.

Confirmation of Available Disc Space

Confirm remaining recording time by setting the on-screen display to “ON”.

When the remaining recording time is “0:00” (when blinking), no further material can be recorded on that disc. Replace the disc with a different recording disc.

The disc remaining recording time display serves as a general indicator of the amount of available space on the disc. Available space may still be remaining on the disc when recording is completed. (The display of remaining recording time during recording and that of when recording is completed may not always be identical.)
