Message
DISC ACCESS
DISC ALMOST FULL
Disc error
*3: Take care with the following when repairing video file:
a) If any message appears when the power switch was moved from "OFF" to "Video" or "Disc Photo" with the
disc left loaded after camera recording, choose repair.
b) If recording and playback are possible with another disc, which is free from condensation or dirt, choose
repair.
c) Be sure to connect the AC adapter/charger: The specifications state that repair is possible only when the
AC adapter/charger is connected.
d) Although repair is normally finished in several minutes, it could take approx. one hour.
e) If the disc is removed while it is being recognized, the repair function of video file will be invalid.
f) If the timing when power is turned off is inappropriate, normal repair may be impossible.
g) If the disc contains data recorded on a device other than DZ-GX20A/MV780A/MV730A, normal repair
may not be possible.
h) The repaired data may be different from the original recorded content because of partial deletion of a
defective portion.
i) The repaired data (only corrected portion in case of partial repair) will lose the original date/time
information because the information for date/time when repair was executed will be added.
j) If "all repair" is executed, repair will be made in the order of all videos and all photos, and the time-
sequential relationship of recorded contents may be lost.
