5) ("DirectCD"): Enter a disk label if
desired, and click [Start Format].
Tip: Disk labels identify the CD when browsing for
drives in Windows Explorer.
6) Wait for a "CD Ready" screen to
appear. (Your CD will now be
available to the housekeeping
feature.)
--------------------------------------------------
7) After copying files / When you try to
eject the CD: For a newly formatted
CD (or after copying files), you will be
prompted with some choices when
you try to eject the CD. If you want
the disk to be readable by other PCs,
be sure to select "Close to Read on
Any PC...".
Tip: DirectCD will typically re-enable the CD the
next time you insert it into the CD 'burner' drive (if
not, you will need to repeat steps 1-6 if you need
to place more files on the CD).
Warning
: Choosing to protect the CD so it cannot
be written to again is a permanent operation that
will turn the CD into a 'read-only' CD-ROM.
10.5
Filekeeping (v2.3 SP2)
10.5.1
Introduction to Filekeeping
Filekeeping provides a convenient way to
manage video files. Filekeeping provides new
functionality including:
• Copying files to any desired location
• Adding and viewing remarks
• Accessibility directly from the file list (after
searching for video files).
Note: Filekeeping applies to the current/last
search-results file-list. Marks applied within
previous search results can be processed by
performing a new search that covers the
collective/overall time frame. Marks will be
removed from files once they have been processed
through Filekeeping.
10.5.2
