Important
• Once you’ve finalized a disc recorded in Video mode,
you can’t edit or record anything else on that disc.
However, the finalization on a DVD-RW disc maybe
‘undone’; see
Undo Finalize
on page 85 for how to do
this.
•A VR mode disc can still be recorded and edited on
this recorder even after finalizing.
1 Load the disc you want to finalize.
Make sure that the recorder is stopped before
proceeding.
2 Press HOME MENU and select ‘Disc Setup’.
3 Select ‘Finalize’.
4 Select ‘Finalize’ from the finalize options, then
‘Start’.
The recorder starts finalizing the disc.
• If the finalization process is going to take more than
around 4 minutes, you can press
ENTER
to cancel.
Around 4 minutes before completion, the option to
cancel disappears.
• How long finalization takes depends on the type of
disc, how much is recorded on the disc and the
number of titles on the disc. A disc recorded in VR
mode can take up to 1 hour to finalize. A disc
recorded in Video mode can take up to 20 minutes.
5 For Video mode discs only, select a title menu
style.
The menu you select will be the one that appears when
the ‘top menu’ is selected on any DVD player.
• Discs recorded partially or fully on the Pioneer
DVR-7000 DVD recorder do not support this feature.
These discs will have only a text title menu when
finalized on this recorder.
Initializing a DVD-RW disc
When you first load a blank disc, the recorder will
initialize it automatically for recording. You can also
manually initialize DVD-RW discs.
You can initialize a disc for either Video mode recording
or VR mode recording.
Important
• Initializing a disc will erase everything recorded on it.
Make sure there is nothing on the disc that you want
to keep!
• You may not be able to re-initialize a disc in a different
format if it was originally initialized on an older DVD
recorder.
1 Press HOME MENU and select ‘Disc Setup’.
2 Select ‘Initialize’
3 Select ‘Video Mode’ or ‘VR Mode’ from the
initialize options.
4 Select ‘Start’.
It takes about 40 seconds to initialize the disc.
Note
• By default, the recorder initializes blank DVD-RW
discs for VR mode recording. See
DVD-RW Auto Init.
on page 97 if you want to change the default to Video
mode.
• If a disc was previously finalized on an older DVD
recorder, you may not be able to re-initialize and/or
initialize it for Video mode recording.
