About DVD recording
This recorder can record to DVD-R, DVD-
RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM, DVD-R
DL and DVD+R DL media.
DVD-R and DVD-RW discs can be initialized
for
Video mode
or
VR mode
recording. Each
has its advantages, and it depends on what
you want to do with the recording which
mode you choose.
If you want to edit your recordings in any
significant way, VR mode offers greater
possibilities for cutting, copying, and
changing the way the video is presented.
Video mode is less flexible when it comes to
editing, but it has the advantage that it is
compatible with standard DVD players
(many of which won’t play VR mode discs
1
).
Once a disc is initialized for a particular
mode, all recording on that disc will be in
that mode.
DVD+RW discs can be initialized for
+VR
mode
recording.
DVD-RAM discs can be initialized for VR
mode recording.
DVD+R discs do not require initializing.
