Playing a disc on other devices

Playing a disc on other devices
Finalizing a disc (p. 62) allows you to view
movies recorded by your camcorder on
other DVD devices. However, we do not
guarantee proper playback on all devices.
You can play back DVD+RW on other
devices without finalizing the disc.
b Notes
• Do not use an 8 cm CD adaptor with an 8 cm
DVD as it may cause a malfunction.
• Make sure that a vertically installed device is
placed in a position such as that the disc can be
placed horizontally.
• On some devices, some discs may not be played
back, movies may freeze for an instant between
scenes, or some functions may be disabled.
