!
Remember, your recording is not complete on a DVD+R disc
until the disc is FINALIZED. Until a DVD+R disc is finalized, it
can be recorded to, played back and edited on the DVD
Recorder, but it will not be compatible with any other DVD
Player. Finalization makes the disc compatible for playback
on standard DVD Players. Once a disc is finalized, no more
recordings can be added.
For more on Finalization, see EDITING YOUR RECORDINGS.
DVD+R Discs must be FINALIZED
!
Title Limit
A DVD+R/RW disc may contain up to 48 titles. Attempting to
add additional title after this limit has been reached will result
in an error.

You can select titles to overwrite by pressing REC from the
Title Screen. In the example below, the recorder is in DVD
mode with the Title Screen displayed and TITLE 2 selected.
When the recording is started from this location by pressing
REC twice, a new title will replace TITLE 2 - and TITLE 3 if the
recording is of sufficient length. TITLE 1 will be preserved
because of it’s position in front of the title that was selected
when REC was pressed.
