How to use the DVD
Recorder
Step 1
Select the disc type
This unit can record on the following types of discs.
If you want to repeatedly record on the same disc or
you want to edit the disc after recording, select a
rewritable DVD-RW or DVD-RAM type disc.
If you want to save recording without any change,
choose a non-rewritable DVD-R.
Before reading the user’s
manual
Make sure to check the following terms before
reading the user’s manual.
Step 2
Format the disc to start recording
Unlike a VCR, the recorder automatically starts
formatting when an unused disc is inserted. This is
required for the preparation of recording on a disc.
Using a DVD-RAM
This type of disc can be formatted in DVD-Video
Recording format (VR mode). You can edit recorded
image and create a playlist and edit images in a
specific sequence according to your requirements.
Using a DVD-RW
This type of disc can be formatted in either DVD-Video
format (Video mode) or DVD-Video Recording format
(VR mode). For an unused disc, a message that asks
whether to format in VR Mode or not is displayed.
You can play a Video mode disc on various DVD
components. A VR mode disc allows more varied
editing.
Using a DVD-R
This type of disc can be formatted in DVD Video
format. After formatting is complete, you can record on
the disc. You can play this type of discs on various
DVD components only when they have been finalised.
■
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
format to another format by
reinitializing. It should be noted that
the disc's data will be lost when
changing formats.
