DVD-RAM Disc Playback and Recording

●

DVD-RAM discs come with or without a cartridge.
For this product, we recommend DVD-RAM discs that
come with cartridges.

●

Some cartridges are able to eject the disc inside.
Even if you are able to eject the disc, always use the
disc with the cartridge to ensure correct operation.

●

DVD-RAM discs have a Write Protect tab in order to
avoid accidental erasure of recorded data.

With the Write Protect tab set to PROTECT, you can

play the disc, but recording or erasing will not work.

Set the Write Protect tab to UNPROTECT to format

the disc or erase data.

●

Ensure that the recording mode is set to VR mode.
Otherwise, this product will not be able to play the
recording.

You cannot play a DVD-RAM in most DVD players
due to compatibility issues.

played in this unit.

DVD-RAM recorded on this unit may not work with other
DVD players. To determine compatibility with these
DVD-RAM discs, refer to the user’s manual for the player.
