Function
Use the Finalize feature!
DVD-R, etc. recorded on this unit cannot be played on other players
immediately after recording. Using the Finalize feature allows you to play
these discs on other players. (However, once the disc is finalized you will
no longer be able to record to the disc.)
If using an unformatted disc, you must format it before the
first recording. After inserting the disc, the formatting
message appears automatically. Formatting prepares the
media, such as a recordable DVD-RAM, for recording. All
data is irreversibly erased.
We recommend using a DVD RAM to utilise the greatest possible
functional scope of this unit.
