Playing your recordings on
other DVD players
DVD (VR) DVD (Video) DVD+R DVD+RW
Most regular DVD players can play finalized
discs recorded in DVD-R/-RW (Video mode)
and DVD+R discs. A number of players
(including many Pioneer models) can also
play DVD-RW discs recorded in VR mode,
finalized or not. Most players will not play VR
mode DVD-R discs, although some DVD-
ROM drives and DVD recorders may be able
to (finalization might be necessary). Check
the manual that came with the player to
check what kinds of discs it will play.
Note
1 If the TV line system of the disc is different to the current setting of the recorder, you will not be able to finalize
the disc. See Additional information about the TV system settings on page 117 for how to change the recorder's
setting.
STOP REC to stop
When you finalize a DVD-R/-RW (Video
mode) or DVD+R disc, a title menu is
created from which you can select titles
when you play the disc. There are a number
of different styles of title menu to choose
from to suit the content of the disc.
All the title menus are navigated in the usual
way, pressing MENU or TOP MENU to
display the menu, then using the
followed by ENTER to select titles and
start playback.
Finalizing a disc
DVD (VR) DVD (Video) DVD+R DVD+RW
Finalizing 'fixes' the recordings on the disc
so that it can be played on a regular DVD
player or computer equipped with a suitable
1
DVD-ROM drive.
Note that the disc name will appear in the
title menu after you finalize a disc. Make sure
the disc name is as you want it before you
finalize the disc as it can't be changed
afterwards. If you want to rename the disc,
see Input Disc Name on page 100 before
starting the steps below.
DVD+RW discs don't generally need
finalizing. However, if you want a title menu
to appear when you play the disc, then you
will need to finalize. When using a
DVD+RW, you can still record and edit even
after finalizing. although the title menu will
disappear if you do so. Finalize the disc
again to generate a new title menu.
Important
• Once you've finalized a DVD-R/-RW
(Video mode) or DVD+R disc, you can't
edit or record anything else on that disc.
However, the finalization on a DVD-RW
disc maybe 'undone'; see Undo Finalize
on page 101 for how to do this.
