Preview Your Project
It's a good idea to see how your VCD project will look before you
burn it to the disc. To preview your project, press Preview at the
bottom of your Main project window, then Click the thumbnail clip
you want to look at.
When you have previewed your project, press Stop.
If playback appears fuzzy and unclear (for example, the edges
of objects, especially objects in motion, are feathered) it is
because of a difference between how televisions and computer
monitors display video. This effect is not noticeable when you
play back the finished VCD disc on your TV.
If your computer's processing speed is less than 800 MHz or if
you are using a slower video card, your preview video in the
MyDVD Preview window may appear choppy. However, the
finished VCD, played back on your TV, will be fine. Updating
the drivers for your computer's video and/or audio card may
minimize this problem. Check your video or sound card
manufacturer's website for driver updates.
Burn Your VCD
When you are satisfied with how your VCD project looks, you are
ready to burn it onto a recordable CD.
1 Insert a recordable CD into your computer's CD or DVD
recorder.
2 On the Main project window, click Burn.
3 Follow the on-screen instructions.
You will be notified when your VCD is successfully completed.
On average, a 30 minute VCD can take from 1 to 2 hours to burn
(depending on the speed of your computer).
