Audio CD
• An audio disc on which 44.1 kHz PCM Audio is
recorded.
• Plays CD-DA format audio CD-R and CD-RW discs.
• The unit may not be able to play some CD-R or
CD-RW discs due to the condition of the recording.
◆
CD-R/-RW
• Use a 700MB (80 minutes) CD-R/-RW disc. If
possible, do not use a 800MB (90 minutes) or above
disc, as the disc may not play back.
• If the CD-R/-RW disc was not recorded as a closed
session, you may experience a delay in the early
playback time, all recorded fi les may not play.
• Some CD-R/-RW discs may not be playable with this
unit, depending on the device which was used to

◆
DVD±R Disc Playback and Recording
• Once a DVD±R recorded in Video Mode is fi nalised,
it becomes DVD-Video.
• You can record onto the available space on the disc
and perform editing functions such as giving titles to
discs and programmes and erasing programmes
before fi nalising.
• When programming is erased from a DVD±R, that
space does not become available. Once an area on
a DVD±R is recorded on, that area is no longer
available for recording, whether the recording is
erased or not.
• It takes about 30 seconds for the unit to complete
recording management information after recording
fi nishes.
• This product optimizes the DVD±R for each
recording. Optimizing is carried out when you start
recording after inserting the disc or turning on the
unit. Recording onto the disc may become
impossible if optimizing is carried out too many
times.
• Playback may be impossible in some cases due to
the condition of recording.
• This unit can play back DVD±R discs recorded and
fi nalised with a Samsung DVD video recorder. It may
not be able to play some DVD±R discs depending on
the disc and the condition of the recording.
◆
DVD-RW Disc Playback and Recording
• Recording and playback can be performed on
DVD-RW discs in both the Video and VR Modes.
• Once a DVD-RW recorded in both the Video and VR
Modes is fi nalised, you cannot perform additional
recording.
• Once a DVD-RW recorded in Video Mode is
fi nalised, it becomes DVD-Video.
• In both modes, playback can be performed before
and after fi nalisation, but additional recording,
deleting and editing can not be performed after
fi nalisation.
• If you want to record the disc in VR Mode and then
record in V Mode, be sure to execute Format. Be
careful when executing Format because all the
recorded data may be lost.
• A DVD-RW blank disc is initialized to VR Mode when
fi rst initialized.
◆
DVD+RW Disc Playback and Recording
• With DVD+RW discs, there is no difference between
DVD-Video format(Video mode) and DVD-Video
Recording format(VR mode).
• Finalising is generally unnecessary when using a
DVD+RW disc.
