Recording from the DV output

You can record non-copy-protected material from a DVD
to a camcorder connected to the

DV IN/OUT

jack.

this recorder.

Find the place you want to start recording from.

3

Start recording on the camcorder.

4

Playing your recordings on other DVD
players

Most regular DVD players can play finalized discs
recorded in Video mode. A number of players (including
many Pioneer models) can also play DVD-RW discs
recorded in VR mode, finalized or not. Check the manual
that came with the player to check what kinds of discs it
will play.

When you finalize a Video mode disc, a title menu is
created from which you can select titles when you play
the disc. There are a number of different styles of title
menu to choose from to suit the content of the disc.

All the title menus are navigated in the usual way,
pressing

MENU

or

TOP MENU

to display the menu, then

using the

/ / /

(cursor buttons) followed by

ENTER

to select titles and start playback.

Finalizing a disc

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.

Note that the disc name will appear in the title menu after
you finalize a disc. Make sure the disc name is as you
want it before you finalize the disc as it can’t be changed
afterwards. If you want to rename the disc, see

Input Disc

Name

on page 70 before starting the steps below.

Important

• Once you’ve finalized a disc recorded in Video mode,

you can’t edit or record anything else on that disc.
However, the finalization on a DVD-RW disc maybe
‘undone’; see

Undo Finalize

on page 71 for how to do

this.

• A VR mode disc can still be recorded and edited on

this recorder even after finalizing.

1

Load the disc you want to finalize.

Make sure that the recorder is stopped before
proceeding.

2

Press HOME MENU and select ‘Disc Setup’.

3

Select ‘Finalize’.

4

Select ‘Finalize’ from the finalize options, then

‘Start’.

The recorder starts finalizing the disc.

• If the finalization process is going to take more than

around 4 minutes, you can press

ENTER

to cancel.

Around 4 minutes before completion, the option to
cancel disappears.

• How long finalization takes depends on the type of

disc, how much is recorded on the disc and the
number of titles on the disc. A disc recorded in VR
mode can take up to 1 hour to finalize. A disc
recorded in Video mode can take up to 20 minutes.

5

For Video mode discs only, select a title menu

style.

The menu you select will be the one that appears when
the ‘top menu’ is selected on any DVD player.

• Discs recorded partially or fully on the Pioneer

DVR-7000 DVD recorder do not support this feature.
These discs will have only a text title menu when
finalized on this recorder.
