repair appears.
Perform repair following the instructions on screen.
Repair is possible when the DVD video camera/recorder is powered

detected an error in part of video file, a battery can also be used for
repair (if the remaining battery level indicator shows more than half
level).
It will take from a few minutes to several hours for repair. If you
wish to start recording immediately, remove the disc, and then
insert another disc: The removed disc can later be repaired by
connecting the AC adapter/charger.
