You can’t cancel the finalization of a VR
mode DVD-R disc.
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 one hour to finalize. Video
mode DVD-R/-RW and DVD+R/+RW
discs can take up to 20 minutes.
Initializing recordable DVD
discs
DVD-R/-RW discs can be initialized for either
Video mode recording or VR mode recording.
1
When you first load a blank DVD-RW or
DVD+RW disc, the recorder initializes it for
recording automatically. By default, blank
DVD-RW discs are initialized for VR mode
recording. See
DVD-RW Auto Init.
on
page 115 if you want to change the default to
Video mode.
DVD-R discs are ready for Video mode
recordings out of the box; if you want to use
a DVD-R for VR mode recording, you must
initialize it before recording anything on the
disc.
DVD+RW and DVD-RAM discs can also be
initialized in order to erase the contents of
the disc.
Important
Initializing a DVD-RW, DVD+RW or
DVD-RAM 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
DVD-RW disc in a different format if it
was originally initialized on an older DVD
recorder.
Once initialized for VR mode recording,
you can’t re-initialize a DVD-R back to
Video mode.
1 Select ‘Disc Setup’ from the
Home Menu.
2 Select ‘Initialize’ > ‘Video
Mode’, ‘VR Mode’ or ‘Initialize
DVD+RW’.
3 Select ‘Start’.
It takes about 30 seconds to initialize the
disc (except DVD-RAM discs, which can take
up to 1 hour).
Note
1 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.
