About
DVD-R
and
DVD-RW
disc
How
are
DVD-R
and
DVD-RW
discs
different?
The
essential
difference
between
DVD-R
and
DVD-RW
is
that
DVD-R
is
a
record-once
medium,
while
DVD-RW
is
a
re-recordable/erasable
medium.
You
can
re-record/
erase a
DVD-RW
disc
approximately
1,000
times.
Can
I
play
my
recordable
discs
in
a
regular
DVD
player?
Generally,
DVD-R
discs
and
DVD-RW
discs
recorded
in
Video
mode
are
playable
in
a
regular
DVD
player,
but
they
must
be
'finalized'
first.

DVD-Video
Format
(Video

is
a

format
for
recording
on
DVD-R/RW

DVD+R/RW
discs
that
was
approved
by
the
DVD

in
2000.
You
may
therefore
experience
problems
playing
recordable

discs
in
some

Symptoms
include

Is
editing
a
DVD
like
editing
a
video
tape?
No.
When
you
edit
a
video
tape
you
need
one
video
deck
to
play
the
original
tape
and
another
to
record
the
edits.
With
DVD,
you
edit
by
making
a
'Playlist'
of
what
to
play
and
when
to
play
it.
On
playback,
the
recorder
plays
the
disc
according
to
the
Playlist.
About

About

How
are
DVD+R
and
DVD+RW
discs
different?
The
essential
difference
between
DVD+R
and
DVD+RW
is
that
DVD+R
is
a
record-once
medium,
while
DVD+RW
is
a
re-recordable/erasable
medium.
You
can
re-record/
erase a

approximately
1,000
times.

Double

offers
two
recordable
layers
on
a
single
DVD
disc,
providing
nearly
double
the

The
greatest,

is
increased

About
DVD
recording
otes
?
This recorder
cannot
make
recordings
on
CD-R
or
CD-RW
discs.
?
Our
company
takes
no
responsibility
for
recording
fail-
ure
due
to
power
cuts,
defective
discs,
or
damage
to
the
recorder.
?
Fingerprints
and
small
scratches
on a
disc
can
affect
playback
and/or
recording
performance.
Please
take
proper
care
of
your
discs.
Disc
types
and
recording
formats,
modes,
and
settings
This recorder
can
play
five
different
kinds
of
DVD
disc:
pre-recorded
DVD-Video
discs,
DVD-RW,
DVD-R,
DVD+RW
and
DVD+R
discs.
The
disc
format
for
DVD-R
discs
is
always
"Video
format"---the
same
as
pre-record-
ed
DVD-Video
discs.
This
means
that
once
finalized,
you
can
play
a
DVD-R
in
a
regular
DVD
player.
By
default,
the
DVD-RW
disc
format
is
Video
format,
though
you
can
change
this
to
Video
Recording
format,
if
required.
(Reinitializing
the
disc
will
erase
the
contents
of
the
disc.)
The
recording
mode
is
closely
related
to
the
disc
for-
mat.
If
the
disc
format
is
Video
Recording
format,
then
the
recording
mode
is
VR
mode;
if
the
disc
format
is
Video
mode,
then
the
recording
mode
is
Video
mode
(except
for
DVD-Video,
which
is
not
recordable,
and
so
does
not
have
a
recording
mode).
Within
the
recording
modes
(which
are
fixed
for
the
whole
disc)
are
the
record
settings.
These
can
be
changed
as
required
for
each
recording
and
determine
the
picture
quality
and
how
much
space
the
recording
will
take
up
on
the
disc.
Notes
for
recording
?
The
recording
times
shown
are
not
exact
because
the
recorder
uses
variable
bit-rate
video
compression.
This
means
that
the
exact
recording
time
will
depend
on
the
material
being
recorded.
?
When
recording
a
TV
broadcast,
if
the
reception
is
poor
or
the
picture
contains
interference,
the
record-
ing
times
may
be
shorter.
?
If
you
record
still
pictures
or
audio
only,
the
recording
time
may
be
longer.
?
The
displayed
times
for
recording
and
time
remaining
may
not
always
add
up
to
exactly
the
length
of
the
disc.
?
The
recording
time
available
may
decrease
if
you
heavily
edit
a
disc.
?
If
using
a
DVD-RW
disc,
make
sure
you
change
the
recording
format
(Video
mode
or
VR
mode)
before
you
record
anything
on
the
disc.
See
page
25
(Initialize)
for
how
to
do
this.
?
When
using
a
DVD-R
disc,
you
can
keep
recording
until
the
disc
is
full,
or
until
you
finalize
the
disc.
Before
you
start
a
recording
session,
check
the
amount
of
recording
time
left
on
the
disc.
?
When
using
a
DVD-RW
disc
in
Video
mode,
recording
time
available
will
only
increase
if
you
erase
the
last
title
recorded
on
the
disc.
?
The
Erase
Title
option
in
the
Title
List-Original
menu
only
hides
the
title,
it
does
not
actually
erase
the
title
from
the
disc
and
increase
the
recording
time
avail-
able
(except
for
the
last
recorded
title
on a
DVD-RW
disc
in
Video
mode).
?
The
overwrite
recording
is
available
with

Recording
TV
audio
channels
This recorder
can
record
either
NICAM
or
regular
audio.
If
the
NICAM
setting
(page
19)
is
set
to
Auto,
then
if
the
broadcast
is
NICAM,
you
can
record
the
NICAM
audio.
If
the
broadcast
is
non-NICAM,
the
regular
audio
is
always
recorded.
Restrictions
on
video
recording
?
You
cannot
record
copy-protected
video
using
this
recorder.
Copy-protected
video
includes
DVD-Video
discs
and
some
satellite
broadcasts.
If
copy-protected
material
is
encountered
during
a
recording,
recording
will
pause
or
stop
automatically
and
an
error
message
will
be
displayed
on-screen.
?
Video
that
is
'copy-once
only'
can
only
be
recorded
using
a
DVD-RW
disc
in
VR
mode
with
CPRM
(see
below).
?
NTSC
format
signals
from
the
analog
or
the

is
not
recorded
correctly
with
this
recorder.
?
Video
signals
in
SECAM
format
(from
the
built-in
TV
tuner
or
from
the
analog
inputs)
are
recorded
in
PAL
format.
What
is
'CPRM'?
CPRM
is
a
copy
protection
system
(with
scramble
sys-
tem)
only allowing
the
recording
of
'copy
once'
broad-
cast
programs.
CPRM
stands
for
Content
Protection
for
Recordable
Media.
This recorder
is
CPRM
compatible,
which
means
that
you
can
record
copy-once
broadcast
programs,
but
you
cannot
then
make
a
copy
of
those
recordings.
CPRM
recordings
can
only
be
made
on
DVD-RW
discs
format-
ted
in
VR
mode,
and
CPRM
recordings
can
only
be
played
on
players
that
are
specifically
compatible
with
CPRM.

Notes
on
MP3/WMA
Recordings
About
MP3
An
MP3
file
is
audio
data
compressed
by
using
the
MPEG1
audio
layer-3
file-coding
scheme.
We
call
files
that
have
the
".mp3"
file
extension
"MP3
files".
The
recorder
can
not
read
an
MP3
file
that
has
a
file
extension
other
than
".mp3".
About
WMA(Window
Media
Audio)
An
WMA
file
is
a
Microsoft
audio
compression
technology.
WMA(Windows
Media
Audio)
offers
double
the
audio.compression
of
the
MP3
format.
MP3/WMA
Disc
compatibility
with
this
recorder
is
limited
as
follows:
1.
CD-R
physical
format
should
be
"ISO
9660"
and
"JOLIET".
2.
If
you
record
MP3/WMA
files
using
the
software
which
cannot
create
a
FILE
SYSTEM,
for
example
"Direct-CD"
etc.,
it
is
impossible
to
playback
MP3/WMA
files.
We
recommend
that
you
use
"Easy-CD
Creator",
which
creates
an
ISO9660
or
JOLIET
file
system.
3.
Total
number
of
files
and
folders
on
the
disc
should
be
less
than
1999.
This
Recorder
requires
discs/recordings
to
meet
certain
technical
standards
in
order
to
achieve
optimal
playback
quality.
Pre-recorded
DVDs
are
automatically
set
to
these
standards.
There
are
many
different
types
of
recordable
disc
formats
(including
CD-R
containing
MP3
or
WMA
files)
that
require
certain
pre-existing
conditions
(see
above)
to
insure
compatible
playback.
Customers
should
also
note
that
permission
is
required
in
order
to
download
MP3/WMA
files
and
music
from
the
Internet.
Our
company
has
no
right
to
grant
such
permission.
Permission
should
always
be

from
the

owner.

that

When

on

For
