Recordings cannot be edited or deleted. • Finalization: Once finalized, additional recordings cannot be made. • Compatibility: A finalized DVD-R can be played back on most DVD devices. DVD-R discs recorded in VIDEO mode offer the best compatibility with external DVD devices. DVD-R DL Best for Recording Time Dual-layered discs allow writing up to 80% more data (2.6 GB) on a single recording side according to DVD Forum specifications. Dual layered discs have two recording layers on a single recording side. The camcorder will record on the first layer until it is full and then continue on the second layer (as a separate scene). • Available disc specifications: VIDEO mode only. • Reusability: Disc can be used only once. Recordings cannot be edited or deleted. • Finalization: Once finalized, additional recordings cannot be made. To finalize a dual layered 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. • Compatibility: A finalized DVD-R DL can only be played back on DVD devices compatible with dual layered discs. • During the playback of a recording spanning both layers, you may notice a brief stop at the point where the camcorder switches from Layer 1 to Layer 2.

The way to do it depends on the disc specification used. [VIDEO]: You will need to unfinalize the disc first. [VR]: You can record additional scenes even without unfinalizing the disc. • Compatibility: The compatibility of the disc depends on the disc specification used.
