PC-created disc compatibility
If you record a disc using a personal
computer, even if it is recorded in a
“compatible format” as listed above, there
will be cases in which the disc may not be
playable in this machine due to the
setting of the application software used to
create the disc. In these particular
instances, check with the software
publisher for more detailed information.
Check the DVD-R/RW or CD-R/RW
software disc boxes for additional
compatibility information.
