Formatting A Disc; Dvd-Rw; Choosing Recording Format Of Brand-New Dvd-Rw - FUNAI ZV427FX4 Owner's Manual

Choosing the Recording Format of a Brand-New DVD-RW
When inserting a brand-new DVD-RW, the unit automatically starts to initialize the disc. DVD-RW will be formatted
either video or VR mode according to the recording format mode setting of the unit. Before inserting a brand-new
DVD-RW, you need to set the recording format to the desired mode. You can also manually format a DVD-RW once it
has been used.
Note
The recording format setting is effective only for DVD-
RW. You cannot change the recording format for a
DVD-R.
You cannot mix two formats on one DVD-RW disc. If
you insert a disc that has been formatted before, the
recording format is not changed if you select another
format in the "Setup" menu only. To reformat a disc
(change disc format type), refer to "Reformatting a
Disc Manually" on page 60.
