Using DVD-R DL/DVD+R DL discs

both DVD-R DL and DVD+R DL discs.

DVD+R DL discs recorded on this unit on other DVD
recorders/players, you must finalize them. (Note that
some DVD recorders/players may not play even
finalized DL discs.)

packaging carefully before purchasing DVD-R DL/
DVD+R DL discs:

2 x to 4 x DVD-R discs.

Confirm the recording speed: DVD-R should be
compatible with 2 x or 4 x recording; DVD+R with 2.4
x to 8 x recording.

• This logo indicates that the disc is a DVD-R DL or

DVD+R DL disc:

• Correct operation has been confirmed for DVD-R DL

About DualDisc playback

A DualDisc is a new two -sided disc, one side of which
contains DVD content –video, audio, etc. –while the other
side contains non-DVD content such as digital audio
material.

The non-DVD, audio side of the disc is not compliant with
the CD Audio specification and therefore may not play.

It is possible that when loading or ejecting a DualDisc,
the opposite side to that being played will be scratched.
Scratched discs may not be playable.

The DVD side of a DualDisc plays in this product. DVD-
Audio content will not play.

For more detailed information on the DualDisc
specification, please refer to the disc manufacturer or
disc retailer.
