Finalizing a DVD+RW Disc (Make Compatible)

Strictly speaking an RW disc doesn’t get finalized, since it is always possible to erase and re-record. 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 re-recorded, and may result in record errors or

lock-ups.

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.
