  • If you experience difficulty getting started, refer to the Help, manual, or the Important Information for information.

 

  • To update information for your operation system, it is recommended to refresh disc by clicking Show Disc Details from time to time after burning, erasing, or formatting disc.

 

  • If you encounter the message "Drive Not Ready" after video/audio multiplexing during disc burning, try to create a DVD disc image first, then burn the disc image to your disc.

 

  • If you have other DVD data burning applications installed on your computer, and found problems in completing disc burning, try to close or uninstall other DVD data burning applications.

 

  • While using Edit Disc, Copy Disc, and Copy Movie, if you have problems in reading the source disc from a disc drive, contact the disc drive vender and update the drive firmware to the latest version.

 

  • If you want to read files from a device that is currently doing formatting or erasing task, sometimes it may take longer to complete the task. It is recommended to do other tasks after formatting or erasing is complete.

 

  • Microsoft Vista supports UDF 2.5 and UDF 2.6.

 

  • In Windows XP, the file format that can be supported is only up to UDF 2.0. If your file format is above this, you will need to install other UDF file system drivers to read the data.

  • At the time of publication, on Windows Vista or XP, only the first session can be read from a multi-session DVD with more than 4GB data. Please install the latest patches from Microsoft to update your Windows system.

 

  • When using an AMD64 computer, upgrade the IDE driver to the latest version if disc burning is not stable.
