Creating a Custom

DVD Movie

The software included with your new PC allows you to create custom DVDs by including multiple source videos and slideshows. In this section, you will learn how to:

■Transfer your home video files to your hard disk drive.

■Edit video files, and customize the look and layout of the DVD menu.

■Record your video project file to DVD or CD.

Requirements for Capturing Video

You can copy (capture) video files to your hard disk drive by using the ArcSoft ShowBiz DVD program. To capture video, your PC also needs either a FireWire (IEEE 1394) port to capture video from a digital video (DV) camera or an analog video capture card to capture video from a TV, a VCR, or an analog video camera.
