Notes
• DVD-Rs are always formatted in Video mode.
You cannot format a DVD-R in VR mode.
• You cannot mix two format types on the same
DVD-RW. If you insert a formatted disc, you
cannot change the format unless you
completely reformat the disc, which erases all
data on the disc.
• You cannot record to DVD+Rs or DVD+RWs. If
you insert a DVD+R or DVD+RW, "Disc Error?"
appears on the screen.
• When you record to a DVD-RW formatted in
VR mode, a playlist is created automatically.
• When you record to a DVD, a blank chapter
may be added to the end of the recording
depending on how much space is left on the
DVD.
