Discs you can use  
≥In order to play a DVD-R recorded using this unit on another  
playback source, the disc must first be finalized (➜page 34).  
≥Once a DVD-R is finalized, it becomes DVD-Video.  
≥You can record onto the available space on the disc and perform  
editing functions, such as giving titles to discs and programs and  
erasing programs before finalizing.  
≥When programming is erased from a DVD-R, that space does not  
become available. Once an area on a DVD-R is recorded on, that  
area is no longer available for recording, whether the recording is  
erased or not.  
The features you can use with the different types of discs are  
indicated as follows.

Glossary  
Bitstream  
Interlace and progressive output  
This is the digital form of multi-channel audio data (e.g., 5.1 chan-  
nel) before it is decoded into its various channels.  
NTSC, the video signal standard, has 480 interlaced (i) scan lines,  
whereas progressive scanning uses twice the number of scan  
lines. This is called 480p. The video signals output from this unit’s  
COMPONENT VIDEO OUT terminals (Y, PB, PR) allow you to enjoy  
higher quality pictures than if the signals were output from the  
VIDEO OUT terminal or S-VIDEO OUT terminal.  
CPRM (Content Protection for Recordable Media)  
CPRM is the copyright protection technology that is used to protect  
broadcasts that are allowed to be recorded only once (e.g. some  
CATV broadcasts).  
I/P/B  
Decoder  
MPEG 2, the video compression standard adopted for use with  
DVD-Video, codes frames using these 3 picture types.  
I: Intra coded picture  
A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVDs to normal.  
This is called decoding.  
This picture has the best quality and is the best to use when  
adjusting the picture.  
P: Predictive coded picture  
This picture is calculated based on past I- or P-pictures.  
B: Bidirectionally-predictive coded picture  
This picture is calculated by comparing past and future I- and  
P-pictures so it has the lowest volume of information.  
Dolby Digital  
This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Lab-  
oratories. Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can  
also be multi-channel audio. A large amount of audio information  
can be recorded on one disc using this method.  
This unit is set to record using Dolby Digital in all recording modes.  
Dolby Pro Logic  
Linear PCM (pulse code modulation)  
These are uncompressed digital signals. This unit outputs linear  
PCM sound in 2 channels from the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminals.  
A surround system where a 4-channel audio track is recorded as 2  
channels and then is restored to 4 channels for play. The surround  
channel is monaural and can reproduce up to 7 kHz.  
Playback control (PBC)  
DTS (Digital Theater Systems)  
If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and  
information with menus.  
This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the  
world. There is good separation between the channels, so realistic  
sound effects are possible.  
Pan&Scan/Letterbox  
In general, DVD-Video are produced with the intention that they be  
viewed on a widescreen television with an aspect ratio of 16:9. This  
means you can view most material with the intended aspect ratio  
on a widescreen television.  
Film and video  
DVD-Videos are recorded using either film or video. Usually, film is  
recorded at 24 frames per second, the rate movies are filmed at,  
while video is recorded at 30 frames per second.  
Material with this ratio will not fit onto a standard television with an  
aspect ratio of 4:3. Two styles of picture, “Pan&Scan” and “Letter-  
box”, deal with this problem.  
Frame still and field still  
Frames are the still pictures that go together to make a moving  
picture. There are about 30 frames shown each second.  
One frame is made up of two fields. A regular television shows  
these fields one after the other to create frames.  
Pan&Scan: The sides are cut off so the  
picture fills the screen.  
A still is shown when you pause a moving picture. A frame still is  
made up of two alternating fields, so the picture may appear  
blurred, but overall quality is high.  
A field still is not blurred, but it has only half the information of a  
frame still so picture quality is lower.  
Letterbox: Black bands appear at the top  
and bottom of the picture so  
the picture itself appears in an  
aspect ratio of 16:9.  
Disc handling  
Do not use irregularly shaped discs, such as heart-shaped.  
(These can damage the unit.)  
DVD-Video, Video CD, CD  
Wipe with a damp cloth and then wipe dry.  
∫ Handling precautions  
∫ How to hold a disc  
≥Do not write on the label side with a ball-point pen or other writing  
instrument.  
Do not touch the recorded surface.  
≥Do not use record cleaning sprays, benzine, thinner, static  
electricity prevention liquids or any other solvent.  
≥Do not attach labels or stickers to discs. (Do not use discs with  
exposed adhesive from tape or left over peeled-off stickers.)  
≥Do not use scratch-proof protectors or covers.  
≥Do not use discs printed with label printers available on the  
market.  
∫ If there is dirt or condensation on the disc  
Moisture may condense on discs after they are brought inside from  
the cold.  
≥Do not use discs that are badly warped or cracked.  
DVD-RAM and DVD-R  
Clean only with the DVD-RAM/PD disc cleaner available.  
Do not use cleaners or cloths for CDs to clean DVD-RAM and  
DVD-R.
