Introduction
Available features depend on the DVD disc used
1
Disc initialization clears all the recordings on the disc and restores the free space on the disc to its
initial value so you can use the same disc again. DVD-R and DVD-R DL discs cannot be initialized.
2
Disc finalization is the processing of the free space (the unrecorded area) on the disc in order to
make it playable on external DVD devices ( 61). To finalize a DVD-R DL disc, the camcorder has
to process both layers. Therefore, and depending on the amount of free space on the disc, this
process may be lengthy.
3
Playback cannot be guaranteed with all external DVD devices.
4
You will need to unfinalize the disc first.
