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. Most players will
not play VR mode DVD-R discs, although some DVD-
ROM drives and DVD recorders may be able to
(finalization might be necessary). 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

/ / / 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.

2

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 95 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 96 for how to do
this.

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

this recorder even after finalizing.
