Can I record from a commercially 
purchased video cassette or DVD?
Most commercially sold video cassettes and DVDs are copy protected; 
therefore, recording is usually not possible.

DVD-RW (DVD-Video format), 
+R, +R DL, and +RW recorded 
on the unit be played on other 
equipment?
You can play these discs on compatible equipment such as DVD players after 
finalising the disc on this unit.

player.
