Finalizing CDR & CDRW discs
During finalizing, an index is written to the disc.
Finalizing is a simple procedure that is necessary in order
to:
- be able to play recordings on a CD PLAYER
- avoid further unwanted recordings on a disc,
- avoid erasure of tracks on a CDRW,
- write CD text on a CDR(W).
Note:When a CDR has been finalized, no more recordings can
be added.
Auto finalizing
The CDR(W) is automatically finalized when using the MAKE
CD recording function.

of scratches and dust particles.
