• Unfinalised discs from other DVD/CD recorders.
• It is not guaranteed that all ‘R’ or ‘RW’ discs are supported due

DVD±RW (rewritable DVD discs)
DVD±RW is an erasable format using discs that may be rewritten
more than 1,000 times.
DVD±R (write-once DVD discs)
DVD±R (write-once DVD discs) DVD±R discs can only be written
once. Several recordings can be made on the same disc as long as the
disc is not finalised or full.
If the disc is finalised, you can not edit or record on the disc,
even though unused capacity may still be available. If you
want to play a DVD±R created with your Smart TV32 on
another player, please make sure it has been finalised. Like-
wise, you must use the "make compatible" option if you
want to play a DVD±RW disc on another player.
Dual-layer DVD (DVDR9)
Dual Layer DVDs are high-capacity DVD discs (with 8.5GB of
storage, compared to the 4.7GB capacity on a standard DVD).
