Disc Finalize
Finalizing a recordable disc ‘locks’ its recordings in
place so the disc can be played on most standard DVD
players or computers equipped with DVD-ROM drives.
Finalizing a disc formatted in Video mode will automati-
cally create a menu screen for navigating the disc. This
menu screen is accessible by pressing DISC MENU or
TITLE.
Caution
• Once you have finalized a DVD-R/+R disc, you
cannot edit or record anything else on that disc.
However, you can record and edit a DVD-RW disc
by choosing Unfinalize.

Finalization can take up to 3-4 minutes depending on

the number of titles on the disc.

If you load a DVD-RW that has already been finalized
on a different DVD Recorder, you can ‘Unfinalize’ it by
choosing Unfinalize from the Finalize menu. After doing
this, you can edit and re-record onto the disc.
You cannot unfinalize a DVD-R/+R disc.
Disc Protect
When recording on a DVD-RW in VR mode, set Disc
Protect to ON to prevent accidental recording, editing or
erasing of the loaded disc.
When recording on a DVD+RW, set Disc Protect to ON
to prevent accidental overwriting, editing or erasing of
the loaded disc. If you need to unlock the disc to make
edits, select OFF.

PBC stands for Playback Control and refers to special
menus and navigation features that are available on
some Video CDs.
- ON: Video CDs are played according to the PBC, if
available.
- OFF: Video CDs are played the same way as Audio
CDs.
AutoPlay
When you load a DVD with AutoPlay turned on, the
DVD Recorder+VCR will bypass the Disc menu and
trailers and start playing the movie automatically. Set
AutoPlay to ON or OFF.
