recording time may differ.
* Audio and video quality of the content being
recorded may degrade if the recording time
becomes longer.
* If you press [DISPLAY], remaining recording time is
displayed when the unit is in stop mode.
Note
• This unit cannot record on CD-RW or CD-R discs.
• DVD-RW / R discs and CD-RW / R discs recorded
on a personal computer or a DVD or CD recorder
may not be played back if the disc is damaged or
dirty or if there is condensation on the unit's lens.
• If you record on a disc using a personal computer,
there are cases in which it may not be played back
because of the settings of the application software
used to create the disc, even if it is recorded in a
compatible format. (Check with the software
publisher for more detailed information.)
• Discs recorded in Video mode on this unit cannot
record additionally using other DVD recorders.
• Since the recording is made by the variable bit rate
(VBR) method, the actual remaining time for
recording may be a little bit shorter than the
remaining time displayed on the OSD, depending on
the picture you are recording.
• DVD-RW once formatted with other DVD recorders
cannot be recorded on this unit and vice versa.
• The maximum Fast Dubbing speed is up to 4x for
DVD-RW discs and DVD-R discs.
• During Fast Dubbing, the noise from the unit
becomes louder. This is not a malfunction.
