Using different disc types for different purposes

DVD-RW / R and DVD+RW / R discs when creating your own original discs for distribution

DVD-R discs are designed to comply with the global standard DVD-Video format, and can be recorded only once. DVD-R / +R discs are convenient when you edit your original content (recorded personal events such as a wedding party) with this unit, transfer them to the unit and make copies to send to your friends or relatives. The discs can be played back on other compatible DVD players. DVD-RW / +RW discs, which are rewritable, can be used as well.

We cannot guarantee that DVD-RW / R and DVD+RW / R discs recorded on this unit will be playable on all DVD recorders/players. Similarly, there is no guarantee that all DVD-RW / R and DVD+RW / R discs recorded on other recorders will be playable on this unit.
