NOTE (DVD±RW)
During a background format operation, the
CLOSE indicator (for DVD+RW) or OPEN
indicator (for DVD-RW) flashes in the upper right
corner of the home screen. When the format op-
eration is complete, the flashing
CLOSE / OPEN
indicator will be turned off.
Start recording after the background format
operation is complete. If you attempt to record
during a background format operation, the
DV-RA1000HD may try to record data in an unfor-
matted area on the disc.
Do not insert a partially formatted disc into a
computer’s disc drive. Otherwise, the back-
ground format operation may resume incorrectly
on a different drive.
Do not insert a disc formatted with a computer
into the DV-RA1000HD disc tray. Format a disc
using the DV-RA1000HD if you plan to use the
disc with the DV-RA1000HD.
Using a non-supported disc
When you insert a disc not supported by the
DV-RA1000HD into the tray and select ODD mode,
the DV-RA1000HD displays a popup message that the
disc type is not supported. Press
ENTER to display a
message that requests confirmation. Press ENTER again
to format the disc (this is not recommended). Using a
disc formatted in this way may cause writing or read-
ing errors more frequently. Do not use such a disc for
recording important materials.
You can view the information of the loaded disc by
pressing the
F3 ( MEDIUM ) key in the check screen. (See
“The check screen” on page 26.)
Using an already recorded disc
When you insert a disc on which multiple project have
already been recorded and select ODD mode, the proj-
ect list screen appears. (See Figure 6.6, Loading a proj-
ect) Select a project you wish to open.
If a disc contains only one project, that project automat-
ically opens.
NOTE
Once you select a project, the project remains
selected until you eject the disc. (Even if you switch
to HDD mode, then switch back to ODD mode, the
same project will open.)
