Playback and recording discs
Playback discs
DVD-R DL/+R DL (Double Layer DVD / Dual Layer DVD)
The data are saved on two parallel layers. You have more
space available. If the laser changes layers during playback, brief
image and sound distortions may occur. If there is not enough
capacity to record a title on the first layer, the rest is recorded on the
second layer. During the playback of a title recorded on two layers, the unit
automatically switches between the layers and plays the title back like a normal title.
You cannot record directly on a DVD-R DL/+R DL with this unit. You can record on the
hard disc and then copy the recording to the DVD disc. After finalization, these discs
can only be played on DVD-R DL/+R DL/+RW compatible players.
Copy protection
Commercially available DVD-VIDEOs are usually provided with copy protection and
cannot be copied.

limited to “one-time recording”. Programmes broadcast with this copy protection
system cannot be recorded on DVD-R or 2.8 GB DVD-RAM. This unit is compatible
