MYDVD 3.5 USER GUIDE

Video Capture from Instant DVD

This application allows you to capture and burn either VCD (CD-ROM) or DVD (CD-ROM or DVD disk) movies. You select the type of video you wish to publish, select the background template and either import video or capture video from Instant DVD. Once you have updated the template and button text to customize your movie, click “Make Disc” and you will step through the process to burn your movie to disc.

When capturing video, MyDVD will check for a CD or DVD burner installed on your system and it will determine how many minutes of VCD or DVD video (depending upon your selection) will fit on the disk.

If you want to make a DVD on a CD disc (sometimes called “mini-DVD”), a software DVD player will automatically be burned to the disk so you can distribute to any Windows PC with a CD player. The DVD player will automatically load so the DVD movie can be played. This is a great way to distribute high quality DVD video to people who may not have a DVD-ROM on their PC.

If you have a DVD recorder (burner) you can produce DVD videos that will play in most home DVD players.

With a CD burner you can produce a VCD (MPEG-1)movie that will play in many home DVD players.
