Information:

This unit can record on DVD-RW / R discs and DVD+RW / R discs.

DVD-R / +R discs allow you to record programmes only once, and the recorded contents can be erased although the space left on the disc does not change. DVD-RW / +RW discs allow you to record programmes repeatedly, and the recorded contents can be erased.

There are 3 recording formats: VR mode, Video mode and +VR mode. VR and Video modes are available for DVD-RW discs while as only Video mode is available for DVD-R discs. +VR mode is available for DVD+RW / R discs.

Video mode is the same recording format as used on the pre-recorded DVD-Videos you purchase in local shops. You can play back the discs recorded in this format on most of the DVD players. You will need to finalise such discs (see page 57) before playing them back on other DVD players. Unless finalised, you can record additional materials or edit discs recorded in Video mode with this unit.

VR (Video Recording) mode is a basic recording format for DVD-RW discs.

You can record and edit material repeatedly. It is impossible to record additional materials on a disc formatted in VR mode and already recorded in another video system other than PAL, such as NTSC.

+VR mode is a recording format for DVD+RW / R. You can play back in this format on most of the DVD player.
