Changing Recorder Settings
You can view or change your recorder settings, such as which recorder to
use, the number of copies to record, and what Toast does after recording is
complete.
To change Recorder Settings:
1 Click the Recording Options button and choose Recorder Settings.
The recorder settings also appear when you click the red Record
button.
2 Click the Basic tab to change basic recording settings, including:
■
Recorder: Select the recorder you want to use.
■
Write Speed: Select the recording speed. By default, Toast will
use the best speed, which is the fastest speed that your recorder
and the blank media both support. For example, if your DVD
recorder supports 1x, 2x, 4x, and 8x, and the blank disc only
supports 1x and 2x, then Toast will record at 2x speeds. To choose
a specific write speed, first insert the blank disc into your
recorder. After a few seconds, the pop-up will list all speeds
available for your recorder and the current blank media.
■
Number of Copies: Enter the number of copies of the disc you
want to make. Toast will prompt you for blank discs after each
copy.
