You can perform simple edits. Since Video mode
titles are actual recordings on the disc, you cannot
undo any edits you make. The edit functions
available for Video mode titles are:
–Setting protection against erasure (page 58).
–Labelling a title (page 58).
–Erasing a title (page 58).
–Erasing multiple titles (page 60).
–Erasing a section of a title (A-B Erase)
(DVD+RWs only) (page 59).
–Erasing all titles on the disc (page 60).
–Erasing titles to open up disc space (Disc Map)
(DVD+RWs and DVD-RWs (Video mode)
only) (page 60).
b Notes
• When editing a DVD+R or DVD-R, finish all editing
before finalizing the disc. You cannot edit a finalized
disc.
• The available disc space does not increase even when
you erase titles for DVD+Rs and DVD-Rs.
• If a message appears and indicates that the disc’s
control information is full, erase or edit unnecessary
titles.
