Page 1 of VR and Video Modes

I just want to know what is the difference between these two modes. Is VR only relevant when using DVD-RW discx?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Yes, VR is a format that allows editing. Even though the industry states that it is compatible with the majority of players the reality seems to be much less.

As a rule of thumb-

if you want to use the DVD-RW on another machine or transferit`s contents to your PC for editing, using VIDEO mode

if you just want to use the discs in the one machine and use them like video tapes (i.e. record-watch-erase-etc..etc.) then go for VR mode. VR mode also allows on disc editing.

A lot of DVd drives in PC`swill read discs created in VR mode, but it`s far from universal
