Copying a DVD or CD
Sonic DigitalMedia Plus enables you to make copies of an existing music or data
disc. You can configure Sonic DigitalMedia Plus to verify that:
• Data files have been copied without errors by performing the procedure
described in “Verifying data disc recorded without errors” on page 61.
• Music files have been copied without errors by performing the procedure
described in “Verifying audio disc recorded without errors” on page 59.
To make a copy of an existing music or data disc using Sonic DigitalMedia Plus:
1 Open the DigitalMedia Plus program by clicking Start, All Programs,
Sonic, and then DigitalMedia Home.
2 Click the Copy tab, and then Disc Copy.
3 Insert the CD or DVD you want to copy.
4 Insert a blank DVD or CD into the drive.
5 Click the Copy icon.
6 Click Done when the recording is complete.
NOTE: An appendable disc can have additional files added to it, if there is disc
space available. Recorded audio CDs are closed-session discs that are not
appendable.
NOTE: You can rename your files in the file selection window by selecting and
typing over the current name. This does not affect the original files on your hard
disk drive.
NOTE: DVD discs can store significantly more files than a CD.
