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.
