performed correctly before deleting the movies

the screen, insert another disc into the DVD
writer and perform the DISC BURN operation
again.
The created high definition (HD) image quality
disc can be played back only on AVCHD format
compatible devices. You can also play back the
disc with a DVD writer connecting with your
camcorder.
The high definition image quality (HD) disc
that you created should not be used in DVD
players/recorders. Because DVD players/
recorders are not compatible with the AVCHD
format, DVD players/recorders may fail to eject
the disc.
Tips
If the total memory size of movies to be burnt
by the DISC BURN operation exceeds that of
the disc, disc creation stops when the limit is
reached. The last movie on the disc may be
cut off.
Disc creation time to dub movies to the limit
of the disc is about 20 to 60 minutes. It may
take more time depending on the recording
mode or the number of scenes. Also, if high
definition image quality (HD) is converted to
standard definition image quality (SD), image
quality conversion takes longer than the actual
recording.
You can play back created standard definition
(SD) image quality discs on any DVD player. If
playback is not possible for any reason, connect
the camcorder to the DVD writer, and then
play back.
The disc mark appears on the camcorder
screen.
