The MyDVD Wizard
The MyDVD Wizard displays when you open
MyDVD. The Wizard guides you through setting up
the MyDVD software to:
• Record directly to a DVD or a VCD
• Create a new project*
• Edit an existing project
• View the tutorial
* If you want to download videos from a digital camcorder
and edit them later, click New MyDVD Project from the
Wizard or New Project from the toolbar.
Note: Once you start a DVD or VCD project, you can not
change it to the other format; for example, if you
choose to create a DVD project, you can not save it as a
VCD project or create VCD discs from it.
Click Cancel to close the MyDVD
Wizard - you will see the MyDVD
toolbar and Menu Editor. You
can then use the buttons on
the toolbar to record to DVD or
create a project.
