Need help with DVD camcorders

[RedRocket1647545505]

Long story short, I had to do a group project interview for school, and tape it. A girl in our group brought in a Sony DVD camcorder for us to use. Now, I've never used one of these, so I'm not 100% on how it works.

 

We film it a few days ago, and go to watch it today, but the DVD player says it's an invalid format disk, or some shit like that.

 

She's not really savy on how the thing works either. My thought was that the DVD disk is probably like a music CD disk, in that, it has to be finalized or closed before you can actually use it. Is this correct?

 

Any idea why it wouldn't be working? I'm going to kill somebody if I have to do this project over again.

yes before you can view it on anything but the camera you have to close out the disk or at least thats how my cannon works

That's the answer I was hoping for. Much thanks, brotato.

Nope. You're off the hook.
