Finalize

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.
Finalizing a Video mode disc creates a menu for
navigating the disc. This is accessed by pressing
MENU/LIST or TITLE.
Caution
After you've finalized a disc recording on a DVD-R,
DVD-RW, or a DVD+R disc, you can't edit or record
anything else on that disc except on a DVD+RW
disc.

titles on the disc. A heavily recorded disc can take up to
4 minutes or more to finalize.
Tip
If you load a DVD-RW that has already been finalized,
you can 'unfinalize' it by choosing Unfinalize from the
Finalize menu. After doing this, you can edit and re-
record onto the disc.
