quick start guide This quick start guide introduces the basic operation and features of your camcorder. See the reference pages for more information. RECORDING VIDEOS ON A DVD DISC YOU CAN RECORD VIDEOS ON A DVD DISC. Videos are recorded in MPEG2 format and are suitable for viewing on most DVD players or computers with DVD drives. STEP1: Selecting a suitable DVD disc Your camcorder uses only the following three types of 3 1/2 inch (8cm) mini DVD discs; DVD-R, DVD-R DL, and DVD-RW. See below to select the disc that best suits your needs. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE DVD DISCS DVD-R: Best for Compatibility, but you CANNOT edit or delete recordings. DVD-R DL: Best for Long Recordings, but you CANNOT edit or delete recordings. DVD-RW: Best for Reusability and you CAN edit or delete recordings. Recording formats for DVD-RW disc DVD-RW discs features two recording formats: Video (Video mode) and VR (VR mode). When you first insert a brand new DVD-RW disc, the camcorder will automatically display the initialization screen where you can select the recording format for the disc. - Video mode : Once finalized, you can play the disc recorded in this mode on most DVD players/recorders/drives, offering the best compatibility. However, recordings cannot be edited. - VR mode: You can easily edit and delete recordings on the camcorder, but playback is possible only on a DVD recorder compatible with DVD-RWs in VR mode. DVD-R and DVD-R DL discs can be recorded in VIDEO mode only. 04_ English
