while the tray is opening, the message ’OPENING’ shows on the DVD Recorder's display panel.
Once the disc tray is open, and while the tray remains open, the message ’TRAY OPEN’
displays.
5 Place the disc on the tray with the label side facing upward—with disc recording surface down.
6 To close the disc tray, press the
Eject
button once more.
The message ’CLOSING’ and then ’READING’ will display.
The DVD Recorder will read the disc automatically:
- If the disc is a recordable DVD which is still editable (has not been protected or finalized),
the DVD Recorder will display the Picture Index list on screen, open for editing or
playback.
- If the disc is a recordable DVD which is not editable (has been protected or finalized), the
DVD Recorder will play the Picture Index list on screen, only for playback. Editing will be
disabled.
- If the disc is a new DVD+R disc, you will be prompted to format the disc. Press the
OK
button on the remote control to start formatting the disc.
- If the disc is a prerecorded DVD, the DVD Recorder will play the DVD on screen.
- If the disc is a prerecorded VCD, the DVD Recorder will play the VCD on screen.
- If the disc is a music CD or MP3 CD, the DVD Recorder will play the CD output from the
audio output sockets and if appropriate, display the CD music information on screen.
- If the disc is a photo CD, the directory information will display on screen.
Note:
Double-sided discs are readable on both sides and have only very small labels around the central rim of
the disc. Place the side you want to play face down on the disc tray.
