Playback and recording discs
DVD-R DL / +R DL (Double Layer DVD / Dual Layer DVD)
The data are saved on two parallel magnetic layers. You have more
space available. If the laser changes layers during playback, brief
image and sound distortions may occur.
If there is not enough capacity to record a title on the first layer, the rest is
recorded on the second layer. During the playback of a title recorded on two layers,
the unit automatically switches between the layers and plays the title back like a normal
title.
You cannot record directly on a DVD-R DL/+R DL with this unit. You can record on the hard
disc and then copy the recording to the DVD disc.
After finalization, these formats can only be replayed on DVD-R DL/+R DL/+RW-
compatible players.

Depending on the recording conditions, playback can nonetheless have problems.
Some DVD-Audio with multi channel sound is designed by the manufacturer to prevent
intermixing on the entire disc or in certain areas. Depending on the disc type, the regional
