With Click to DVD you can use the following file formats. For details, refer to the Click to DVD software online help.

Video files: DV-AVI, MPEG1, MPEG2, DVR-MS

Picture files: Bitmap, JPEG, TIFF

To display “Click to DVD” online help, click “Start”, point to “All Programs” and select “Click to DVD Help” from “Click to DVD”.

Because data is temporarily stored on your computer's hard disk when using “Click to DVD” to create a DVD video, there must be enough free space on the hard disk. When using only a video, the amount of hard disk space required varies according to the length of the video and the video bit rate, as listed below. (The values listed are not applicable to “Click to DVD Automatic Mode”.)
