An Introduction to DVDs You have probably heard of DVD discs and they come in various types and in two sizes the more common 12 cm DVDs and 8 cm Mini DVDs. This camcorder uses 8 cm DVD-R discs (like the supplied one) or DVD-RW discs (commercially available). So... what disc to choose? DVD-R Can be recorded only once. You cannot edit or delete the recordings. DVD-RW You can record on it many times. You can delete scenes or initialize the disc and start recording again. Now that I have the disc... What disc standard do I choose to initialize it? VIDEO mode Once finalized, a disc recorded in VIDEO mode will play in most common DVD players. However, you cannot edit the recordings. VR* mode You can easily edit the recordings. However, the disc can only be played back with DVD players compatible with DVD-RW discs in VR mode. * Video Recording 6
