Disc Finalization
Preparing your Disc for Playing on a
DVD Player
In order to play the disc you recorded on a DVD player, a computer’s DVD drive or other
digital device, you need to finalize it first. Refer also to the instruction manual of the DVD
player/recorder or the computer’s DVD drive.
When finalizing a disc, always power the camcorder directly from a power
outlet. The finalization process cannot be started if the camcorder is powered
only with the battery pack.
Do not disconnect the power adapter while the disc finalization is in progress.
Doing so can interrupt the process and result in lost data.
Depending on the type of disc and the disc specification, after finalizing the disc
you may not be able to initialize the disc, edit your recordings or add new
recordings to the disc.
Do not finalize with the camcorder discs that were not recorded using this
camcorder.
A finalized DVD-RW in VIDEO mode can be unfinalized to allow recording
additional scenes and other limited editing options (
101).
Once finalized, you cannot add recordings to a DVD-R disc.
The time required to complete the disc finalization will vary depending on the
scene recording conditions and the amount of free space remaining on the disc.
