I am in the market for my first DVD (stand-alone) recorder. Because I
do not have one yet, I cannot get the answers to the following questions
by reading the manual or just experimenting. I am aware that a
stand-alone machine supports only *simple* editing, but please elaborate
on what "simple" means.
I want to play videos from a separate stand-alone VHS player and record
them in a certain sequence onto a DVD.
1) After recording from the first tape, can I press *pause* on the
recorder, load and play my second tape, then release *pause* at the
appropriate time to have a continuous glitch-free edit? The results
with DVD+R vs. DVD-R?
2) After recording, if I press *stop* (not pause) and then decide to
copy another tape at a later time, can I elect to append the second one
to the first without getting either a glitch or a pause between the two
resulting segments on the DVD, or must each recording be done as a
separate "file"? The results with DVD+R vs. DVD-R?
3) If the answers to either of the above is "no," will a DVD recorder
containing a hard drive allow me to accomplish glitch-free assemble
edits?
4) Once a disc is finalized, can it be reopened to accept additional
recording? DVD+R vs. DVD-R?
