Sonic MyDVD Video Projects

A Sonic MyDVD video project is a way to group, organize, store, play, and burn related video and still digital files. For example, if you went on a family vacation, you might have digital still and video images, and prints from a film camera. You can transfer all these images onto your PC and organize them into a project. (A scanner is required to transfer printed photos and is not included.)

Projects can remain on your PC for playback and as an archive, and they can be burned to a DVD or VCD disc.

Sonic MyDVD enables you to create video projects using the following interfaces:

•Standard program interface (described beginning in “Creating a Video Project” on page 18).

•Direct-to-Disc Wizards (described beginning in “Creating a Video Project with Direct-to-Disc Wizard” on page 23).

Note that the Direct-to-Disc Wizards do not include the editing features that are available from the standard interface. You can edit a project created with a wizard before burning it to a disc as described in:

•“Editing the style of a video project” on page 21.

•“Editing movie files” on page 21.
