Disc format
A DVD must be formatted in the following cases.
- When the DVD-RAM to be used for recording data is not formatted in the UDF 2.5 format, or is new.
- When you want to record data onto a used DVD-RAM/RW.
(However, data can be additionally recorded to DVD-RAM if the content already recorded is in the AVCHD standard.)
Important
●
Formatting will delete all existing data on the disc. Since the format process cannot be canceled, be careful and confirm the contents of the disc.
●
When recording the data in AVCHD standard to a DVD with this software, the disc must be formatted by this software. The format tool that comes
with the DVD drive may not support the AVCHD standard.
●
If you cannot format the disc, change the auto protect setting to on or cancel the setting with the device that set the protection. (If a disc has the Auto
protect setting enabled, format will clear the Auto protect setting.)
