INFORMATION ON DVD-R DISC
You cannot record a still on DVD-R disc, or
delete any recorded images or data.
For optimum recording on DVD-R disc, this
DVD video camera/recorder writes control data
to the disc in order to automatically make
adjustments when it is inserted and ejected
accompanying recording. If the disc has no area
to be written for adjustment, recording may not
be possible. To prevent this, do not insert or eject
a DVD-R disc accompanying recording more
than 100 times.
Although some models are compatible with the
VR mode using DVD-R disc, this DVD video
camera/recorder is not compatible with that
mode.
Note
:
•
When using an unformatted DVD-R disc, it is
necessary to format it on this DVD video camera/
recorder (see page 42).
•
Do not insert a DVD-R disc recorded on this DVD
video camera/recorder but not finalised, into a
recordable device, such as a DVD recorder: The
recorded data may be damaged (except for devices
that allow playback of a DVD-R disc not finalised on
this DVD video camera/recorder).
•
Use only DZ-GX20E/MV780E/MV750E/MV730E/
MV2000E to record on or finalize a DVD-R disc
recorded on this DVD video camera/recorder but not
finalized: Using any other device could damage the
data recorded on the disc.
•
DVD-R discs edited and finalised on PC or those
finalised on another DVD recorder may not be
playable on this DVD video camera/recorder,
depending on the editing software used or recorded
status of DVD-R disc.
•
If you insert a DVD-R disc recorded on a DVD video
camera/recorder other than DZ-GX20E/MV780E/
MV750E/MV730E/MV730E/MV2000E and not
finalised, the Disc Navigation screen will automatically
start, and no recording can be done on the disc nor
can it be finalised.
•
Do not insert a DVD-R that was recorded by a DVD
recorder manufactured by a company other than
Hitachi, and which has not been finalised, in this DVD
video camera/recorder: Doing so will make the disc
unusable.
