Can I Recover a DVD that is now "Not Formatted"?
Posted by nishali4@gmail.com on January 13th, 2006


Okay, so I just finished recording on a DVD-RAM on my Panasonic DVR
(which I love) but when I was editing the disc the machine froze, so I
had to unplug the machine. When I restarted it and put the disc back
in, it says that the disc is now 'not formatted' and that if I format
it through the machine I will lose all the data on the DVD. Is there
any way for me to recover what is on my DVD?? Any help is appreciated.

Thanks!

You could try isobuster but I don't hold out much hope.

If he has a PC that will read DVD-RAM then isobuster will probably
work. I've sucked things off disks that everything else
said was 'blank disk'.
