Burning DVD-Video

Burning DVD-Video

SwiftDisc Burning Wizard allows you to configure the burning settings for your project. In case you selected multiple devices (available only for the Premium edition), you can access each device from the drop-down list at the top of the window. 

 

Parameters: 

 

Speed 

 

Choose the recording speed from the "Recording speed" drop-down list. The recording speeds available depend on the drive capabilities and the media inserted in the drive. 

 

Hint: We suggest that you select a lower-than-maximum speed. 

 

Simulation 

 

Check the "Simulate" check box to perform a simulated burn. Make sure that you have inserted the DVD media into the drive to be used for the actual recording process. After the burning simulation you will be asked whether to perform the actual burning. 

 

Note: Some devices or media types (e. g. DVD+RW) do not support Simulation. Where applicable, this option is disabled. 

 

Optional: 

 

Closing the disc 

 

SwiftDisc Burning Wizard closes the disc by default. Once the disc is closed you will not be able to append additional sessions to it. If you would like to add more sessions to the disc, uncheck the “Close Disc” check box. 

 

Eject the CD after burning 

 

Check the "Eject when done" check box to eject the DVD after the burning is completed. The device tray will be ejected after the actual burning. 

 

Erase disc if not blank 

 

Check the "Eject when done" check box to eject the disc after the burning is completed. The device tray will be ejected after the actual burning. 

 

Note: SwiftDisc Burning Wizard selects automatically the best settings for your project. If you are not sure which options to choose, please leave the default values. 

 

 

Setting Up A Device:

 

If you have selected multiple devices (available only for the Premium Edition), you can choose to configure the burning settings either for each device separately or for all of them at once. 

 

 

• Set up burning setting for an individual device

 

 

Choose the device from the drop-down list at the top of the “Burning Setting” screen and configure the settings only referring to it. If you would like to configure the setting for another device, please choose it from the drop-down list at the top of the “Burning Setting” screen and repeat the steps. 

 

Note: All the settings entered will be saved for the device referred. SwiftDisc Burning Wizard keeps the settings entered separately for each device (chosen in the drop-down list). This means that each device may have different values for different settings. 

 

 

• Set up burning setting for multiple devices

 

 

Choose “All” from the drop-down list at the top of the “Burning Setting” screen to configure the settings for all devices. 

 

Note: If you would like to configure the setting for an individual device after setting them all at once (selecting the “All devices” view), the device settings will be re-selected to configuration before the “All devices” view. 

 

Additional: 

 

- To change the DVD you have inserted for the recording, please press the “Eject” button. 

- To close the device tray, press the “Close” button. 

 

Before continuing, please make sure that there is enough space on the target DVD to record your video files. 

 

=> To set up a session type for the recording, check the “Edit Advanced Settings” check box at the bottom of the screen. Press the “Next” button. The program will take you to an additional “Advanced Burning Settings” screen. (For more information, please read the section: Advanced Burning Settings) or 

 

=> To start the burning, press the “Finish” button. This will initiate the actual burning process.
