Movie . From these functions, you can import and edit your own video and audio files; then save them
into any of the following supported formats: MPEG-1, MPEG-2, ASF, WMV, and AVI.
When you have prepared your video and audio files, by going through the Capture and Edit steps, you
can then add a customized menu from within the Author function. You can import your own still images
to use as menu backgrounds or select one of the sample images. When your movie is ready, proceed to
Make Movie where you can select the output format and video standard used in creating your movie.
Write your movie to disc or save it to the hard disk drive for writing later. If you use WinDVD Creator
Plus to create a DVD image on your hard disk drive, you can select Load Image to Burn from the Project

menu. Your movie can be created in +VR or -VR video formats. Through Disk Manager, you can edit
your movie at any time, adding or deleting video segments or changing your customized menu.
Note: +/-VR formatted disks have limited compatibility in older set-top DVD players.
