want to edit the disc after recording, select a rewritable
DVD-RAM or DVD±RW type disc.
If you want to save recording without any change, choose
a non-rewritable DVD±R.
Step 2 : Format the disc to start recording
The DVD Recorder automatically starts formatting when
an unused disc is inserted. This is required for the
preparation of recording on a disc.
Using a DVD-RAM/±RW/+R
When an unused DVD-RAM/±RW/+R disc is fi rst inserted,
the message "Unformatted Disc. Formatting.
Please wait. " will be displayed.
Using a DVD-R

inserted, it will operate in Video mode.
It can also be formatted in VR mode in the setup menu.
You can change the disc mode only once when an
unused DVD-R disc is inserted.
