INFORMATION ON DVD-R DISC

You cannot record a still on DVD-R disc, or delete
any recorded images or data.
For optimum recording on DVD-R disc, this DVD
video camera/recorder writes control data to the
disc in order to automatically make adjustments
when it is inserted and ejected accompanying
recording. If the disc has no area to be written for
adjustment, recording may not be possible. To
prevent this, do not insert or eject a DVD-R disc
accompanying recording more than 100 times.

DVD video camera/recorder on a DVD player or

DVD-R Disc (finalize disc)” (P. 137).
