Step 6
Finalizing & Playing on
other DVD components
To play your DVD on other DVD components,
finalizing may be necessary. First, finish all editing and
recording operations, then finalize the disc.
When using a DVD-RW disc in VR Mode
DVD discs recorded in VR mode can only be played
back in DVD recorders, not players.
When using a DVD-RW disc in Video Mode
The disc should be finalized first to enable playback
on anything other than this HDD & DVD RECORDER.
No more editing or recording can be made on the disc
once it has been finalized.
To enable recording on the disc again, the disc must
be unfinalized.
When using a DVD-R disc
You should finalize the disc to play it on a component
other than this HDD & DVD RECORDER. You cannot
edit or record on the disc once it has been finalized.
Step 5
Editing a recorded disc
Editing on discs is easier than conventional video
tapes. The HDD & DVD RECORDER supports many
different edit functions, possible only with DVDs and
HDD.
With a simple and easy edit menu, you can operate
various edit functions, such as delete, copy, rename,
lock, etc., on a recorded title.
Creating a playlist (DVD-RAM/-RW in VR mode,
HDD)
With this HDD & DVD RECORDER, you can create a
new playlist on a disc and edit it without the original,
pre-existing recording.
■
You can only use either the VR or Video
mode on a DVD-RW, but not both at the
same time.
■
You can change the DVD-RW to another
format by reinitializing. It should be noted
that the disc's data will be lost when
changing formats.

Step 4
Playing
You can select the title you want to play in a
displayed menu and then immediately start
playback.
A DVD consists of sections, called titles, and
sub- sections, called chapters.
During recording, a title is created between two
points where you start and stop recording.
Chapters will be created automatically when you
finalize recording on DVD-RW/-R discs in Video
mode.
The chapter’s length (interval between chapters)
varies according to the recording mode.
There are two different recording methods, Direct
Recording and Timer Recording. Timer recording is
classified as Follows:
Recording mode : XP (high quality mode), SP
(standard quality mode), LP (long recording mode),
and EP (extended mode)
