Initializing a DVD-RW disc

When you first load a blank disc, the recorder will
initialize it automatically for recording. You can also
manually initialize DVD-RW discs.

You can initialize a disc for either Video mode recording
or VR mode recording.

Important

• Initializing a disc will erase everything recorded on it.

Make sure there is nothing on the disc that you want
to keep!

• You may not be able to re-initialize a disc in a different

format if it was originally initialized on an older DVD
recorder.

1

Press HOME MENU and select ‘Disc Setup’.

2

Select ‘Initialize’

3

Select ‘Video Mode’ or ‘VR Mode’ from the

initialize options.

4

Select ‘Start’.

It takes about 30 seconds to initialize the disc.

Note

• By default, the recorder initializes blank DVD-RW

discs for VR mode recording. See

DVD-RW Auto Init.

on page 104 if you want to change the default to
Video mode.

• If a disc was previously finalized on an older DVD

recorder, you may not be able to re-initialize and/or
initialize it for Video mode recording.
