Creating Discs

  15 

Recommend for: Situations where you are having compatibility 

problems with the formatting created by the DVD/Blu-ray 

authoring software or with the media type of the master disc. This 

method removes some potentially complicating variables from the 

DVD/Blu-ray Video creation process. This method eliminates the 

need for a master disc. Error or incompatibilities can be introduced 

into your master by the drive burning the master, the disc the master 

is burned on or the software burning the master. Instead masters can 

be stored on a large hard drive. This allows you to burn additional 

copies at any time without locating the master. If a backup strategy 

is employed, hard drive storage is more reliable over the long term 

since it is not susceptible to scratching like a master disc.

Image Project

The Image Project allows you to copy any CD, DVD, or BDR master. 

A disc image is an exact copy of your disc that you can save on your 

hard drive for later use. You can use an existing image or create an 

image and then use it in the project.  The master disc is read from 

the specified drive to the hard drive of your computer. The master is 

stored in the Global Image format (*.gi) in a user specified location 

on your computer. PTPublisher uses this file to make all subsequent 

copies that are requested. The master disc is read only once to create 

the initial file.
Recommended for: All CD, DVD or Blu-ray content or disc types 

(Audio CD, Data CD, Software Install Disc, Video CD, DVD Video, 

Blu-ray Video: CDR, DVD-R, DVD+R, DVD-ROM, DVD+DL, DVD-

DL, BDR, BDR-DL, etc.). This is best used for jobs that are repeated 

on a regular basis where you will need  

to make additional copies of the master disc at a later time. This 

project type stores the master on your hard drive. This saves the 

time it takes to read in the master and reduces the possibility of 

defects being introduced into the master disc.

B2. Steps to any Project.

Step 1: Add Data
Depending on your job type this step will be different.  You may 

choose your master, choose data on your hard drive, choose tracks 

to your audio CD, choose your disc image or DVD or BDR video 

folders.  
On most job types a volume label can also be created at this step.
