Disc information
: Can do, ×: Cannot do
• We recommend using Panasonic discs. We also recommend using DVD-RAM discs with cartridges to protect them from scratches and dirt.
• You may not be able to record depending on the condition of the discs and you may not be able to play due to the condition of the recording.
• For the recording time, refer to “Recording modes and approximate recording times” on page 17.
• You cannot record programmes that allow “One time only recording” to CPRM compatible DVD-R and DVD-RW on this unit. You can record
other programmes as DVD-Video format.
1 You cannot continue a recording from the first layer to the second layer on dual- or double-layer discs. To record onto the second layer, you
must first close the first layer using the “Close First Layer” item in DVD Management (Ô page 37). You will no longer be able to record to the
first layer after you do this (Ô page 16).
When playing a title recorded on both layers, video and audio may momentarily cut out when the unit is switching layers.
2 You may not be able to use +R recorded on this unit in another Panasonic DVD recorder and vice versa. Once the disc is finalized, however,
it can be played in the other unit.
3 The amount of the recordable disc space doesn’t increase even if the programme is deleted when you use a one time recording disc.
4CPRM (Ô page 49) compatible discs only.
