Compilation Screen
The compilation area is named after the relevant compilation. Files and folders are compiled
here for burning. In the browser area (File Browser) you can find the elements that you want
to burn.
The bottom margin of the screen contains a capacity scale in MB for data discs or minutes
(min) for Audio CDs. The exact size of the scale will depend on which disc type you have se-
lected.
You can switch the units of the capacity scale by double-clicking on the scale.
If the Browser area is hidden, you can show it again using the
button.
When you are compiling files, a capacity bar indicates how much space the files need on the
disc. The color of the capacity bar indicates whether the data will fit on the disc or not:
Green capacity bar
The data will fit on the disc.
Yellow capacity bar
(from the yellow mark
on the scale)
The data might fit on the disc. The size of the disc that has
been inserted will determine whether the data will fit or not.
Red capacity bar
(from the red mark on
the scale)
The data will not fit on the disc.
(Unless you have inserted an oversize disc.)
The yellow and red marks are set by default for discs that are commercially available. The
disc type you have selected will determine the exact scale value.
Capacity of the CD recordable disc
For example, blank CDs are available with a capacity of 650 MB or 700 MB.
Therefore the yellow mark is set for CDs at 650 MB and the red at 700 MB.
Display the Capacity Bar
If the capacity scale is hidden you can display it again by clicking the File > Op-
tions > Compilation menu and by selecting the check box Show the compila-
tion size in the Nero status bar.
