Burning a CD
Instead of burning this project onto a DVD, you’ll burn it onto a blank CD-ROM. CDs
created in Adobe Encore DVD play only in computer-based DVD-compatible drives. The
capacity of a CD is typically 650-700 MB, significantly less than that of a DVD. However,
when you’re distributing small projects that are not intended for television viewing, you
may prefer to write DVD-compliant files to a CD. The quality will equal that of a DVD.
1
In the Disc tab, choose 650 MB or 700 MB from the disc size pop-up menu, depending
on the capacity of your blank CD.
2
Click Build Project. If prompted to save your project, click Save and Continue.
3
In the Make DVD Disc dialog box, choose Current Project from the Create Using pop-
up menu, and then choose your recorder.
4
Insert a blank CD in the recorder, and click Next.
5
Click Build in the Make DVD Disc Summary dialog box.
Burning the disc may take several minutes, depending on the recorder, the computer
system, and the size of the media.
