Formatting a disc

When a disc that has already been used is formatted, a new project is automatically added to the disc. Reformatting a DVD±RW disc on the DV-RA1000HD will never result in an entirely blank disc (but of course, all previous data is removed during a format process).

CAUTION

If you attempt recording many times to the same DVD±RW disc and erasing or formatting it often, you may find that it does not record properly. You should use a new disc for any really important re- cordings.
