Burn to Disc
After you have acquired your media, assembled your story, edited your
clips, added audio and visual effects, and customized the layout and
look of your disc, then it’s time to finalize your production.
CyberLink PowerDirector offers several methods to finalize your
production, which are useful under different circumstances. You can
burn your production to disc as the last step in your movie production
process, save your production as a disc image for later burning, or
create a DVD folder to organize your media files on your hard drive.
Depending on your burning drive and disc type, one or more of these
options may be available simultaneously.
CyberLink PowerDirector supports the following DISC formats for
burning:
• DVD: DVD-R, DVD-RW, DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD-RAM
• VCD/SVCD: CD-R, CD-RW
Note: See "Modify Your Create Disc Preference" on page 224 for information
on selecting your disc burning type.
Set Your Burning Configuration
Before you burn to disc for the first time, set your burning configuration
on the Burn window. After you set this configuration, CyberLink
PowerDirector uses the same configuration each time you burn until
you change the settings.
