Playing your recordings on other DVD
players
VR mode Video mode
Most regular DVD players can play finalized discs
recorded in Video mode. A number of players (including
many Pioneer models) can also play DVD-RW discs
recorded in VR mode, finalized or not. Check the manual
that came with the player to check what kinds of discs it
will play.
When you finalize a Video mode 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 (cursor buttons) followed by
ENTER to select titles and start playback.
Finalizing a disc
VR mode Video mode
Finalizing 'fixes' the recordings in place so that the disc
can be played on a regular DVD player or computer
equipped with a suitable 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 68 before starting the steps below.
Important
• Once you've finalized a disc recorded in Video mode,
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 69 for how to do
this.
• A VR mode disc can still be recorded and edited on
this recorder even after finalizing.
1 Load the disc you want to finalize.
Make sure that the recorder is stopped before
proceeding.
