Compiling a DVD

Nero Recode

Unless you possess the copyright yourself, or at least have the permission of the

national or international law and may lead to severe penalties!

To compile a DVD, proceed as follows:

1. Choose the Compile a DVD task from the Nero Recode main window.

 The My Own DVD Compilation screen is displayed.

2. Insert the DVD you want to recode in the disc drive on your PC.

Keep in mind that the Fit to target check box is enabled so that the content of the

source DVD can be recoded during the subsequent process in such a way that it

fits the selected target format.

If the check box is disabled, the DVD-Video will be imported in its original size. In

this case, it is possible that the data volume will be so large that you will only be

able to store it on a double-layer DVD or on the hard drive.

3. Select the required import profile in the Title import profile area.

4. Click the Import Titles button.

 The Import Titles window is opened.

5. Select the video titles that you want to recode and click the Add titles button.

 The selected video titles are imported and shown on the content area. If the source files

are larger than the target media, you can also see how the files are recoded according to

the selected profile here.

Underneath, the capacity bar shows how much disk space is taken up by the imported

files on the disc graphically.

6. If you want to delete a single video title:

1. Select the required video title.

2. Click the Erase button.

 The video title is removed from the compilation.

7. If you want to lock an individual video title to protect it from loss of quality during recoding:

1. Select the required video title.

2. Click the Lock Ratio button.

 The video title is locked.

8. If you want to unlock a locked video title in order to adjust the quality proportionally to the

quality of the other titles while recoding:

1. Select the required video title.

2. Click the Unlock Ratio button.

 The video title is unlocked.
