To write a file to a DVD-RAM disc, logical formatting is required.
It is possible to write a file to a logically formatted DVD-RAM disc in the same way as
writing to a floppy disk or hard disk.
For details, refer to the online manual of “DVD-RAM Driver” (
page 14).
NOTE
If you write using B’s Recorder, because the format is different, it will no longer be
possible to write using applications other than B’s Recorder. To enable writing,
physical formatting is required (
page 22).
Using DVD-RAM Disc

FormRW discs on B’s CLiP may seem to finish in a very short time. However
the “background formatting” is performed to format the non-formatted segments. There-
fore, the multimedia pocket device indicator
is on.
During background formatting;
• You can read from or write to a disc.
• You can remove the disc even while the multimedia pocket device status indicator
is on.
Right-click
on the notification area and click [Eject] to remove the disc.
• If the disc is removed before completely formatted, the background formatting will
restart when the disc is returned to the drive. Background formatting will continue
until the formatting is complete.
• To carry the computer, right-click
on the notification area and click [Eject] to
remove the disc.
