Step 4: Setting DVD Video Parameters

Before you start editing your DVD menu you should set the DVD parameters so that the created disc could be played correctly. You

can set the following parameters:

System - use this option to select a the TV system used in your country (PAL or NTSC). You should select a PAL (for Europe)

or NTSC (for Japan and Americas). Please make sure that your DVD player and TV set support the selected DVD system.

Quality - use this option to select a correct preset that will help you record a DVD with good quality, depending on the total

length of all video files you would like to include into your DVD. Normally you should select a High Quality DVD if its total

duration will be no more than 60 minutes for a single layer DVD (108 minutes for a double layer DVD). Selecting a Long Play

DVD cannot be really recommended and should be used only in case you really need to use it as the quality of the output DVD

will be not optimal.

Aspect - select it from the drop-down box depending on the display type (4:3 (LCD or CRT) or 16:9 LCD) and the video files

type loaded into AVS DVD Authoring.

Disc Type - the type of the disc (single or double layer) that will be used to record your created DVD.

Note: if you select a double layer DVD, make sure that your DVD drive supports writing onto such

discs.

Click the Finish button to end the wizard and start the DVD menu editing, or use the << Back button to return to the previous

steps and change some parameters. You can also use the Cancel button to discard all the changes and close the wizard.
