Before Editing

This recorder offers various edit options. Before you edit, read
the following to see what is available for your disc.
Note that you may lose the edited contents if you remove the disc
or a timer recording starts while editing.
Checking the disc type, recording
format, and title type
Press TITLE LIST, and check the disc type and recording format
indicated at the top of the Title List menu. If the disc is a VR
mode disc, check also the title type, Original or Playlist. If you
edit an original title instead of a Playlist title by mistake, it is
irreversible. You will be unable to recover the erased title, or
revert the edited title to the previous status.
Edit options for DVD-RWs (Video
mode)/DVD+RWs/DVD-Rs
You can perform simple edits. Since Video mode titles are actual
recordings on the disc, you cannot undo the edits you have done.
