Working with Data DVDs and CDs

Unlike audio CDs and jukebox DVDs, data DVDs and CDs can be recorded in multiple sessions.

1Open the DigitalMedia Plus program by clicking Start, All Programs, Sonic, and then DigitalMedia Home.

2Click the Tools menu and then click Options.

3In the Options window, click Data.

Data disc tips

When storing data files on a disc, it is important to note that:

•You can add new data files to a CD-R, DVD+R or DVD-R in a later recording session, until the disc is full. With DVD+R or DVD-R discs, insert your partially recorded DVD, click the Wrench icon to display the Options window, click Data, select the first Write-Once DVD Compatibility option, and then click OK.

•When you record files that have the same name as previously recorded files, Sonic DigitalMedia Plus updates the file, and the previous version is overwritten.

•Sonic DigitalMedia Plus allows you to change the names of files you want to record and files that were previously recorded.
