Initialize settings
You can initialize a DVD-RW disc for either VR mode
recording or Video mode recording. The first time you
load a new DVD-RW disc, it will be automatically
initialized for recording according to the DVD-RW Auto
Init. setting in the Initial Setup menu (see page 118).
The initialize menu here lets you reinitialize a disc, for
example if you want to change the recording format of
the disc. See
Initializing a DVD-RW disc on page 70 for
detailed instructions.
Finalize settings
Finalize
Finalizing ‘fixes’ the recordings in place so that the disc
can be played on a regular DVD player or computer
equipped with a suitable DVD-ROM drive.

See Playing your recordings on other DVD players on
page 69 for detailed instructions.
Undo Finalize
You can undo the finalization on DVD-RW discs recorded
on this recorder in Video mode. You need to do this if you
want to record more material or edit material already on
the disc.
You can also undo the finalization of VR mode discs
which have been finalized on other DVD recorders. If
when you load a disc the message
This disc cannot be
recorded. Undo the finalization is displayed, use this
command to be able to record on the disc using this
recorder.
1 From the Disc Setup menu, select ‘Finalize’, then
‘Undo Finalize’ from the finalize options.
2 Select ‘Start’.
Optimize HDD
The Optimize HDD option is only visible when the
recorder determines that the HDD needs optimizing
(you’ll see a message appear on-screen recommending
you optimize the HDD).
As you record, erase and edit recordings, the HDD file
system gradually becomes fragmented. Periodically, the
HDD will need optimizing to ‘clean up’ all the fragmented
files.
Optimizing the HDD can take up to eight hours to
complete, and in the meantime no other operation is
possible. It is however possible to cancel optimization,
should you need to.
• Select ‘Optimize HDD’ from the disc Setup menu.
• Select ‘Start’ to optimize.
A progress bar indicates how long there is left to go.
HDD Initialize
When your DVD recorder is working without a problem
this option is not visible in the Disc Setup menu.
However, if the HDD file system becomes corrupted for
some reason, you initialize the HDD to fix the problem.
Note that initializing the HDD will erase all the data on it.
• Select ‘Initialize HDD’ from the disc Setup menu.
• Select ‘Start’ to initialize.
Note
1 You cannot finalize a disc or use the Undo Finalize command if the TV line system of the disc is different to the current setting of the recorder.
See Input Line System on page 108 for how to change the recorder’s setting.
