Depending on the content being recorded, the recording times may 
become shorter than indicated.
This unit uses variable bit rate (VBR) recording which varies the 
amount of data recorded to suit the images, so actual recording 
times and remaining recording times shown by the unit will be 
different. (The difference will be especially noticeable with DVD-
R DL and +R DL.)
Use a disc with plenty of remaining time to be sure.
