The problem will probably be with the laser lens being dirty or slightly out of adjustment. A good cleaning of the lens could fix the problem, otherwise the unit will have to be serviced. Take it into a local camera repair shop, or contact Panasonic for an authorized repair center: http://www2.panasonic.com/consumer-electronics/support
Get an estimate before having it repaired, since the cost of repair can be considerable, and sometimes it's better to just buy a new camcorder.
Good luck, and hope this helps.
Look for a firmware upgrade for your player. They exist for sole purpose of increasing compatibility with newer blu ray releases. If that does not do the trick it appears that your player's laser assembly is losing its ability to focus on the disk(s). Repair is not cost effective and you will have to go shopping.
Good news.. you should be able to put the disc back in to the device that you recorded in on... and go to the menu to do the finalize... in fact, you may be able to add more to you disc prior to the finalize process if you want... once it's finalized you should be able to view on other equipment... your files should all be there as well.
I mainly use my DVR to record TV shows on DVD-RAM discs (Panasonic brand or Maxell). I've had no problems with the DVD-RAM discs. However, today when I put a DVD-R disc in the recorder, I got an "Incompatible Disc" error message. I tried a second disc from the same set, and got the same message. I tried out some of the DVD-Rs that I recorded last year and I could read them. Tried a DVD-RAM. That was OK. So, I tried another DVD-R disc. That one is OK. I don't know if the problem is that these DVD-Rs are getting a little old (2 years??) or if the recorder is developing its own problems reading discs.
You need to do formatting on the disc when using it for the first time. Remember, formatting needs to be done by camcorder. If you used the disc before and formatted it on different machine - it won't work.
