≥ It is recommended that you use Panasonic

able to record or playback normally. (The
message “RECOMMENDED TO USE
PANASONIC DISC” appears.)

ª About recording formats in
conventional standard picture
quality
≥ Refer to P14 about the recording format of high
definition picture quality.
ª About DVD-R DL (dual layer on
single side)
DVD-R DL (dual layer on single side) discs have
two layers of recording and playback surface on
one side. If the recording does not fit on the first
layer (L0), it continues on the second layer (L1).
In this case, the recording continues across two
layers.
In STD mode, the recording is divided into two
scenes at the point where the layers switch.
This unit automatically switches layers during
disc playback so you can play back the whole of
the disc continuously like a normal disc.
However, the picture or the sound may
momentarily stop at the point where the layers
switch.
