Finalizing a Disc

You will need to finalize discs to play back on other DVD players.

Finalizing may take several minutes up to an hour. Since the process of the finalization fills empty space of the disc, a shorter recording period on the disc will require a longer time period for finalization. Do not unplug the power cord during finalization.

No

If ?????? appears when [STOP C] is pressed, you cannot cancel finalizing because the finalizing has already reached at a critical point in its process.

If ???No??? is selected and [ENTER] or [RETURN] is pressed, finalizing is continued.

You cannot cancel finalizing a DVD-R, DVD+R and DVD+RW once it has started.

Recording Mode

You can select a recording mode among 5 options, and the recording time will depend on the recording mode you select as follows.

???The recording times listed above are estimates and are for reference purposes only. Actual recording times may vary.

???The audio and video quality of content being recorded may differ depending on the recording mode/recording time chosen.

Note

???This unit cannot record to CD-RW or CD-R.

???DVD-RW/-R, DVD+RW/+R and CD-RW/-R recorded on a personal computer or 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.

???Since the recording is made by the VBR (variable bit rate) method, depending on the picture you are recording, the actual remaining time for recording may be a little shorter than the remaining time displayed on the TV screen.

Restrictions on Recording

You cannot record copy-protected program using this unit. Copy-protected video signal is included in DVD- videos, some satellite broadcasts, some pay-per-view stations and some ???premium??? stations.

If copy-protected material is detected, recording will pause or stop automatically and an error message appears on the screen.

???Copy-once only??? video can only be recorded to CPRM compatible DVD-RW formatted in VR mode.

What is ???CPRM????

CPRM is a copy protection system with scramble system regarding the recording of ???copy-once??? broadcast programs. CPRM stands for Content Protection for Recordable Media.

This unit is CPRM compatible, which means that you can record copy-once broadcast programs, but you cannot make another copy of those recordings. CPRM recordings can only be made on CPRM compatible DVD-RW formatted in VR mode, and CPRM recordings can only be played back on DVD players that are specifically compatible with CPRM.

Making discs playable in other DVD players (Finalize)

For DVD-RW/-R, it is necessary to finalize the disc after recording, in order to play back the disc on other DVD players. (Refer to pages 31-33.) For DVD+RW/+R, it is recommended to finalize the disc in order to make the disc more compatible to other DVD player. When video and +VR mode disc are finalized, a title menu is created. You cannot finalize discs in other DVD recorders.
