Recording from an external component
You can record from an external component, such as a
camcorder or VCR, connected to one of the recorder’s
external inputs.

Make sure that the component you want to
record from is connected properly to the HDD/DVD
recorder.
See Chapter 2 (
Connecting up
) for connection options.

Press repeatedly to select one of the
external inputs to record from.
The current input is shown on-screen and in the front
panel display:

Playing your recordings on other DVD
players
Most regular DVD players can play finalized discs
recorded in DVD-R/-RW (Video mode) and DVD+R discs.
A number of players (including many Pioneer models)
can also play DVD-RW discs recorded in VR mode,
finalized or not. Most players will not play VR mode DVD
-R discs, although some DVD-ROM drives and DVD
recorders may be able to (finalization might be
necessary). Check the manual that came with the player
to check what kinds of discs it will play.
When you finalize a DVD-R/-RW (Video mode) or DVD+R
disc, a title menu is created from which you can select
titles when you play the disc. There are a number of
different styles of title menu to choose from to suit the
content of the disc.
All the title menus are navigated in the usual way,
pressing
MENU
or
TOP MENU
to display the menu, then
using the
///
followed by
ENTER
to select titles
and start playback.
Finalizing a disc
Finalizing ‘fixes’ the recordings on the disc so that it can
be played on a regular DVD player or computer equipped
with a suitable DVD-ROM drive.
2
Note that the disc name will appear in the title menu after
you finalize a disc. Make sure the disc name is as you
want it before you finalize the disc as it can’t be changed
afterwards. If you want to rename the disc, see
Input Disc
Name
on page 132 before starting the steps below.
DVD+RW discs don’t generally need finalizing. However,
if you want a title menu to appear when you play the disc,
then you will need to finalize. When using a DVD+RW,
you can still record and edit even after finalizing.
although the title menu will disappear if you do so.
Finalize the disc again to generate a new title menu.
Important
• Once you’ve finalized a DVD-R/-RW (Video mode) or
DVD+R disc, you can’t edit or record anything else
on that disc. However, the finalization on a DVD-RW
disc maybe ‘undone’; see
Undo Finalize
on page 133
for how to do this.
