on the

Disc Layout Window

toolbar to open the

dialog box. Here is where you can define the

environment by which your audience can monitor and switch tracks. Set screen

NTSC

is generally used in

North America and Asia while

defines the boundaries within which your track titles will

automatically fit. Parts of the background image that fall outside the margins may
be truncated when viewed on a TV screen.

folder in the Music DVD-Video disc.
