iMovie HD 6 and iDVD 6 for Mac OS X
| When the burning process is complete, iDVD spits out the DVD disc and asks if you'd like to make another copy (Figure 23.17). If so, insert a new disc; otherwise, click Done. Figure 23.17. If you're creating multiple copies of the same disc, burn them in succession so you don't have to go through the encoding stage each time.
Here are a few other suggested things to do while you're in your cooling down period. Test your project
Just because you have a shiny disc in hand doesn't guarantee that it works. Test it on your own machine using DVD Player. Test it on friends' Macs and PCs, and insert it in your consumer DVD player. Test, test, test, or you may find yourself singing, "To every season, burn, burn, burn...". Delete encoded assets
If you don't need to burn another disc, you can free up some hard disk space by deleting the project's encoded assets, which are stored in the project file. Create an archive of the project for offline storage to make sure you have all of the original footage. To delete encoded assets:
Make duplicates
If you want to make copies of the DVD without going through the iDVD burning process, use Disk Utility or other software such as Roxio's Toast (www.roxio.com). |
