Frequently asked questions
• What’s the difference between DVD-R and DVD-RW?
The most important difference between DVD-R and
DVD-RW is that DVD-R is a record-once medium,
while DVD-RW is a re-recordable/erasable medium.
You can re-record/erase a DVD-RW disc
approximately 1,000 times.
For more information, see
About DVD recording
on
page 37.
• What’s VR mode?
VR (Video Recording) mode is a special mode
designed for home DVD recording. It allows flexible
editing of recorded material compared to ‘Video
mode’. On the other hand, Video mode discs are
more compatible with other DVD players.
• How do I change the format of a disc?
Both DVD-R and DVD-RW discs can be initialized for
Video mode or VR mode recording. DVD-R discs are
ready for Video mode recording when you first load
them into the recorder. You can, however, initialize
them for VR mode recording from the Disc Setup
menu.
DVD-RW discs can be initialized and re-initialized for
either mode at any time (although initializing will
erase all the data on the disc).
• Can I play my recordable discs in a regular DVD player?
Generally, DVD-R discs and DVD-RW discs recorded
in Video mode* are playable in a standard DVD
player, but they must be ‘finalized’ first. This process
fixes the contents of the disc to make them readable
to other DVD players as DVD-Video discs.
DVD-R discs recorded in VR mode are not playable in
standard DVD players, but may be playable in other
DVD recorders and DVD-ROM drives (in the case of
DVD-ROM drives, the disc will need to be finalized
first).
DVD-RW discs recorded in VR mode are playable in
some players and other recorders.
Note that discs may not play due to recording or disc
characteristics, scratches or dirt on the disc or pickup
lens, etc.
This label indicates playback compatibility with
DVD-RW discs recorded in VR mode (Video
Recording format). However, for discs recorded with
a record-only-once encrypted program, playback can
only be achieved using a CPRM compatible device.
Note that Pioneer cannot guarantee that discs
recorded using this recorder will play on other players.
