Disc Title Menu:
available only when you’ve inserted a DVD+R or DVD+RW disc that you’ve recorded in this
DVD/VCR. With Disc Title Menu highlighted, press OK to access the disc’s title menu (each recording is listed).
For details about the
Disc Title Menu
, go to Chapter 3 (page 35).
Playlist:
(available for Audio CDs and DVDs): You can create a customized playlist just like you can with many
CD players where you rearrange the order in which the songs play. The playlist is played via the Program Play
option in the Info Display (page 48). When you want to copy a single title from a DVD+R or DVD+RW disc to a
tape, you can set up a playlist for the disc with only the title you want to copy. To set up a playlist, follow the on-
screen instructions.
Copy Disc:
simultaneously starts playing disc and recording the disc to tape in the VCR. Note: If you’ve created
a playlist on the disc, only the playlist will be recorded. To copy the entire disc, you would have to delete the
playlist from the disc before you choose
Copy Disc.
Disc Actions:
this menu allows you to do some of the more advanced disc function, such as erasing and
fi nalizing the discs.
Rename Disc:
press OK when highlighted (the on-screen keyboard appears). Follow the on-screen
instructions to give the disc a different name. Highlight
Done
when you’re fi nished, and press OK. You
cannot select the disc name for a fi nalized DVD+R disc.
Erase Disc:
erases a DVD+RW disc so you can record new programming onto it. Not available for
DVD+R disc.
Lock Disc:
protects contents of the DVD so nobody can record new programming onto it. If the disc is
locked, this option changes to unlock. This option isn’t available for DVD+R discs.
Finalize Disc:
only appears if you have a DVD+R disc in the DVD/VCR. In order for a DVD+R disc to be
played in other DVD player, you must fi nalize it.
Make Compatible:
DVD+RW discs only. If you have made edits to the disc, such as adding or deleting
chapter markers or hiding chapters, this option enables the edited version of the disc to be compatible
with other DVD players.
