DVD+R recording
From now on it is also possible to record on write-once DVD+R discs. Recording on
DVD+R works the same like DVD+RW but with the following differences:
l New recordings are automatically made in the free space after any existing
recordings. Overwriting and append recording are not possible.
l Erasing titles is possible, but the space occupied cannot be re-used.
l Erasing an entire disc is not possible.
l Editing with Favorite Scene Selection (inserting chapter markers, hiding chapters) is
still possible, but the resulting edit cannot be made compatible with regular DVD
players.
