Finalize
Finalizing ‘fixes’ the recordings in place so that the disc
can be played on a regular DVD player or computer
equipped with a suitable DVD-ROM drive.
Finalizing a Video mode disc creates a menu screen for
navigating the disc. This is accessed by pressing MENU
or TITLE.
Caution
• Once you’ve finalized a disc recording, you can’t
edit or record anything else on that disc. You can
record and edit on this recorder after unfinalizing.
