Discs for recording
Several different formats of DVD
recordable discs can be used with this
recorder:
DVD±RW
(DVD Rewritable)
– Discs that are rewritable can be used
for multiple recordings once the existing
data has been erased.
DVD±R
(DVD Recordable)
– Discs can only be used for a single
recording. Each new recording is always
added at the end of all previous
recordings as existing recordings cannot
be overwritten.
– Editing can be made on any DVD±R
discs as long as they have not been
fi nalized (except {
Erase A-B
},
{
Divide
} and {
Undo Erase
}).
– To play a DVD±R on other DVD
player, it must be fi nalized (see the
chapter “Disc settings – Finalize”). After
this is done, no more data can be added
to the disc.
DVD±R DL
(DVD±R Double Layer)
– Like the DVD±Rs, these discs can only
be used for a single recording. The only
difference is the capacity- 8.5GB. It offers
two recordable layers on a single DVD
disc. The layers are accessible from the
same side of the disc, so recording can
occur completely uninterrupted.
