DVD+RW and DVD-RAM discs can also be initialized as
a way of erasing the entire disc. When initializing a DVD
-RAM disc, select VR mode.

See

Initializing recordable DVD discs

on page 89 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.

It is also possible to finalize DVD+RW discs. This is only
necessary if you want to a player to display a title menu
for the disc.

See

Playing your recordings on other DVD players

on

page 88 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

Select ‘Disc Setup’ from the Home Menu.

2

Select ‘Finalize’ > ‘Undo Finalize’ then

‘Start’.

Optimize 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.

When the HDD needs optimizing the recorder will
automatically display a message recommending
optimization.

Important

• Optimizing the HDD can take as long as eight hours.

During optimization, playback and recording are not
possible.

• Cancelling optimization mid-way does not undo the

optimization already done, so the HDD will be partly
optimized.

1

Select ‘Disc Setup’ from the Home Menu.

2

Select ‘Optimize HDD’ then ‘Start’.

A progress bar indicates how long there is left to go. If no
actions are carried out for more than 20 minutes after the
optimization process is completed, the unit turns itself
off.

Initialize HDD

When your HDD/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 can initialize the HDD to fix the
problem. Note that initializing the HDD will erase all the
data on it.

1

Select ‘Disc Setup’ from the Home Menu.

2

Select ‘Initialize HDD’ then ‘Start’.
