Notes
• This unit cannot record on CD-R or CD-RW discs.
• DVD-R/RW and CD-R/RW discs recorded on a personal computer or on a DVD or CD recorder may not be played back if
the disc is damaged or dirty or if there is condensation on the player’s lens.
• If you record a disc using a personal computer, even if it is recorded in a compatible format, it may not be played back
because of the settings of the application software used to create the disc. (Check with the software publisher for more
detailed information.)
• Discs recorded in Video mode on this unit cannot record additional information using other DVD recorders.
• It is impossible to use a DVD-RW disc formatted with this unit on other DVD recorder unless the content of the disc was
also recorded with this unit.
• Since recording is performed using the Variable Bit Rate (VBR) method, the actual remaining time for recording may be a
little shorter than the remaining time displayed on the OSD, depending on the picture you are recording.
