Differences between the disc types

Discs are automatically finalised when

 

removed from the recorder. You can edit

 

or record on the disc even after

 

finalising.

Finalising is unnecessary when playing a

 

disc on VR format compatible equipment.

VR format compatible, you may need to

 

finalise the disc, especially if the

 

recording time is short. After finalising,

 

you cannot edit or record on the disc. If

 

you want to edit or record on it again,

 

unfinalise or reformat the disc (page 71).

 

Note however, that reformatting a disc

 

erases all its contents.

on equipment other than this recorder.

 

After finalising, you cannot edit or

 

record on the disc. If you want to edit or

the disc (page 71). Note however, that

 

reformatting a disc erases all its

 

contents.
