All DVD-R, etc. discs recorded on this unit must be finalized before they can be played on other DVD players. Once

finalizing.
Whether DL discs recorded on this unit can be played on other DVD Players will depend entirely on the capabilities of
that player. 100 % compatibility is not guaranteed to.

Recording
to DVD-R DL
and +R DL
DVD-R DL and +R DL discs have two layers of recording surface on one side.
-R DL Recordings are divided when recording changes from the first layer to the second. Some images and audio
may be lost at this point.
+R DL Recordings continue through the layer change with only a slight pause similar to what you will see with
commercial DVD-Video discs. Any recording exceeding 8 hours in length is automatically divided whether a layer
change is required or not.
