8.1 Burn Options Screen
The Burn Options screen is e.g. displayed after you have added the desired media items to your project (Content screen), created and edited the menu of your project (Edit Menu screen), and previewed your project (Preview screen). In that case, it is a follow-up screen of the Preview screen. The Burn Options screen is also displayed when you select the
Burn Disc Image entry of the Tools menu on the Home screen and open a disc image.
In the Burn Options screen you can burn a project as a disc, a disc image or write it to the hard disc drive (or save it to memory stick or SD card) as a folder. Depending on the type of project you are working on and the burner connected to the system, a number of different options are available in the Set the parameters for burning selection list on the right side of the screen. The Project summary area on the left side displays information about the set- tings and content of the project.
Even if you do not have a drive that is capable of burning DVDs, Blu-ray Discs or CDs, you can still use the Image Recorder to burn a disc image and save it for future use on your hard drive. Once you have connected an appropriate disc burner to the system, you can burn disc images on real discs at any time using Nero Video.
A project file (*.nvc) saves the project data – information about file paths and layout – after you have started work on your project. This means that you can interrupt your work at any time and resume the project at a later point or burn it on disc. The contents of a project file can only be opened with Nero Video. The file size of a saved project is significantly smaller than a disc image.
A Disc image (image file) is the precise picture of the project data to be burned. You can burn the finished image as often as you like at a later stage, but it re- quires just as much space on the hard drive as the project to be burned. As well as being burned to disc or as a disc image, some projects can also be captured to hard drive folders, memory stick or SD card, provided there is enough space.
