FINALIZING DVD-RW/DVD-R/+RW (FINALIZE DVD)

If you want to play back a DVD-RW/DVD-R recorded/dubbed on this DVD video camera/
recorder, using a device conforming to 8 cm DVD disc – such as a DVD recorder/player, etc. – you
must finalize the disc on this DVD video camera/recorder.
If you wish to display the DVD video menu when playing back a +RW on a DVD player or DVD
recorder, finalize it using the Disc Navigation menu.
No further recording/dubbing can be done on a finalized DVD-RW (VF-mode)/DVD-R/+RW. You can,
however, unfinalize the DVD-RW (VF-mode)/+RW so that other scenes can be recorded/dubbed on it.
Additional recording/dubbing is possible on a finalized DVD-RW (VR-mode): Unfinalizing is not necessary.

2

Press the MENU button.

Use the f/e/d/c/A buttons to
choose “Finalize DVD” on the “DVD Setting”
menu screen, and then press the A button.

The disc will be finalized.

Choose “YES”, and then
press the A button.
The message showing

Note

:

• Do not use any other device to finalize a disc

recorded/dubbed on this DVD video camera/recorder.

• If the disc in the DVD video camera/recorder has

already been finalized, you cannot choose “Finalize
DVD”.

• The time required to finalize disc that appears on the

“Finalize DVD” screen is only for reference.

• The shorter the recording time on disc, the longer it

will take to finalize it.

• The second and later finalization will be faster with a

disc which has previously been finalized.

●Using FINALIZE button to finalize

a disc

Press the FINALIZE button during recording
pause: The screen shown in step 4 above will
appear. Choose “YES”, and then press the A
button: Finalizing will start.

Before You Begin

• Be sure to use the AC adapter/charger to power the DVD video camera/

recorder when finalizing a DVD-RW/DVD-R/+RW. Finalization cannot be
executed using a battery. If the DVD video camera/recorder is turned off
during finalization and the finalization is interrupted, incorrect
finalization will result, and at worst, the disc may be damaged.
