Storing data files on disc
When storing data files on a disc, it is important to
note that:
■ You can add new data files to a CD-R and
a DVD+R in a later recording session, until
the disc is full. With DVD+R discs, you
need to select the correct setting in
RecordNow! to record files in a later session. To do
this, insert your recorded DVD, open RecordNow!,
click the Options icon (wrench), click Data, select
the recording option you want, and then click OK.
■ When you record files that have the same name
as previously recorded files, RecordNow! updates
the file and the previous version is overwritten.
■ RecordNow! allows you to change the names of files
you want to record and the files that were previously
recorded.
■ As you select data files to record to your disc,
RecordNow! calculates and displays the amount of
recording space used on your disc.
Copying a DVD or CD
RecordNow! allows you to make a copy of a music
or data disc from your collection.
To make a copy of a music or data disc from your
collection:
1 Using the trackball, click Start, choose All
Programs, Sonic RecordNow!, and then click
RecordNow! again.
2 Select the Data Projects tab.
3 Select Exact Copy.
4 Insert the CD or DVD you want to copy.
5 Click the Copy icon.
6 Insert a blank DVD or CD into the drive, and then
click OK.
7 Click Done when the recording is complete.
