NOTES
In order to play the disc on a computer
you need to have DVD playback software
installed and running. Also, in order to play
back a DVD-R DL you must have a DVD
drive capable of reading dual-layered DVD
discs.
Unfinalizing the Disc - Additional
Recordings on a Finalized Disc
Unfinalize a disc to allow recording
additional movies on the disc even after
it was finalized.
IMPORTANT
• Be sure to unfinalize the disc in
normal room temperatures. If the
procedure was not completed
correctly due to high temperature, let
the camcorder cool off before
resuming operation.
• Place the camcorder on a table or
other stable surface before starting
the procedure. Subjecting the
camcorder even to slight impacts (for
example to place it on a table or to
disconnect a cable) after the
unfinalization process started may
result in permanent data loss.
• Only discs that were finalized using this
camcorder can be unfinalized with it.
POINTS TO CHECK
Disc type: DVD-RW, finalized
Disc quality: HD or SD (VIDEO mode
only)
* During the disc unfinalization a progress bar
is displayed. Close the menu only after the
screen display returns to the [DISC
OPERATIONS] menu.
NOTES
We recommend powering the camcorder
using the compact power adapter.
