Finalizing a DVD+RW Disc (Make Compatible)
Strictly speaking an RW disc doesn’t get finalized, since it is always possible to erase and rerecord. The
finalizing process with a DVD+RW disc is called Make Compatible; it doesn’t close the disc to future
recordings, but it does make it compatible with other DVD players and computers.
Please note: DVD+RW discs must be treated with great care, finger prints or scratches on the recordable
surface will reduce the number of times a disc can be rerecorded, and may result in record errors or
lockups.
To finalise a disc the LCD Display must be displaying the General Display. If the LCD is showing any other
display press the Stop button,
until the General Display is showing.
Press the Menu button and the LCD display will show the Menu Options
Press the Down Arrow button to navigate the Menu Options, until 5. Make Compatible is displayed.
Press the Enter Button and the Make Compatible progress bar will appear on the TV monitor.
Once the process is complete the Make Compatible progress bar will disappear from the TV monitor, press
the Menu button to exit the Menu Options and return to the General Display.
The disc is now ready to be played in other devices, such as PCs or DVD players. Please note: Not all
DVD players are compatible with DVD+RW media, some older players may not recognise the disc.
