recorder, using a device conforming to 8 cm DVD disc – such as a DVD recorder/player, etc. – you
must finalize the disc on this DVD video camera/recorder.
No further recording can be done on a finalized DVD-RW (VF-mode)/DVD-R/+RW. You can,
however, unfinalize the DVD-RW (VF-mode)/+RW so that other scenes can be recorded on it.
Additional recording is possible on a finalized DVD-RW (VR-mode): unfinalizing is not necessary.
