    I see what you mean! The manual is useless!

    I found this:

    Finalise discs
    To be able to play a DVD+RW/-RW in a different DVD player, it is necessary to finalise it. After this no further editing or recordings can be made to the disc.
     
    > Load the DVD+RW/-RW in DVD 2
    > Press GO then 3 to enter edit mode
    > Use the arrow buttons up or down to highlight 'FINALISE' and press GO
         
      ·
    A message appears:
      ·
    >   press GO to proceed, or
      ·
    >   select 'CANCEL' and press GO to cancel the operation
     
    Finalising a disc may take more than 30 minutes.
     
    While finalising a DVD+RW/-RW, do not open the disc tray or switch off the system, as this may render the disc unusable.

    Hi Doctor,

    Thanks so much for that, as you found, the manual is useless! It was not easy finding my way into the MENU where those instructions came up, but I eventually found it. Anyway, I have now finalised 3 discs and will be trying them at a friends tonight!

    It says they may take more than 30 mins to finalise, but it seemed to be between 2 & 5 mins when I did it so hopefully it went correctly. I will report back tomorrow on my sucess (or lack).

    Many thanks again!

    [Edit] - that worked and the DVD's played im my friend's DVD player.
