Recording And Finalizing Discs - Pioneer PDRF10 Bedienungsanleitung

Broadcast programs, CDs, other recorded
media (cassettes, vinyl records, etc.) and
musical performances are all protected by
copyright laws. You must get permission from
the copyright owner if you sell, transfer,
distribute or lease a disc recorded from the
above mentioned sources, or if you use it as
part of a business (such as for background
music in a store).

Recording and finalizing discs

Unlike other recording media, recordable CDs
have a number of distinct states, and what
you can do with a disc depends on the current
state of the disc. The figure below shows the
three states—blank, partially recorded, and
finalized—and what's possible ( ) in each.

1 Before You Start
1 Once the CD-RW has been erased, it
becomes recordable again.
2 In general, current CD players cannot
play CD-RW discs. However, this
situation may change.
The process of finalization fixes the contents
of a CD-R in place for good by creating a
Table of Contents (TOC, for short) at the
beginning of the disc. This tells a CD player
exactly what's on the disc and where to find it.
Once a CD-R is finalized, further recording
and other changes become impossible. The
CD recorder and other CD players treat a
finalized disc as an ordinary playback-only
CD. (See page 21 for more information on
finalizing CD-Rs.)
CD-rewritable discs can be finalized in the
same way as CD-R discs, but even after
finalization, the disc can still be erased and
used over again. Remember that CD-RW discs
can only be played on players that are
specifically designed to play CD-RW discs:
most home CD players will not play these
discs, even after the disc has been finalized.
(See page 21 for more information on
finalizing CD-RWs.)
