DVD-RAM Disc Playback and Recording
•
DVD-RAM discs come with or without a cartridge.
For this product, we recommend DVD-RAM discs
that come with cartridges.
•
Some cartridges are able to eject the disc inside.
Even if you are able to eject the disc, always use
the disc with the cartridge to ensure correct opera-
tion.
•
DVD-RAM discs have a Write Protect tab in order
to avoid accidental erasure of recorded data. With
the Write Protect tab set to PROTECT, you can
play the disc, but recording or erasing will not work.
Set the Write Protect tab to UNPROTECT to format
the disc or erase data.
•
Ensure that the recording mode is set to VR mode.
Otherwise, this product will not be able to play the
recording.
•
You cannot play a DVD-RAM in most DVD players
due to compatibility issues.
•
Only DVD-RAM standard Version 2.0 discs can be
played in this unit.
•
DVD-RAM recorded on this unit may not work with
other DVD Players. To determine compatibility with
these DVD-RAM discs, refer to the user's manual
for the player.
•
This unit is compatible with both non-cartridge and car-
tridge DVD-RAM, but the write-protect tabs on car-
tridge-type discs give better protection to your record-
ings.
