Chapter 3:
Right-to-Disc
You can burn video content from a DV camcorder, HDV camcorder, TV, webcam
or VCR directly onto a DVD or Blu-ray Disc without the intermediary step of first
writing to your hard drive. This can save you a lot of time when you want to store
video on a disc.
Note: Some camcorders are recognized as external disk drives on your PC,
and therefore the Right-to-Disc feature is not available. In this case you
should use the Import Video Files function to import the files directly from
the external drive (camcorder) to your hard drive.
In the simplest scenario, you could burn video content straight onto a DVD or
Blu-ray Disc, then immediately play your video on a DVD player, Blu-ray Disc
player or save the content for future projects.
This chapter contains the following sections:
