Here, you make all the additional settings that you can use for creating a DVD, a Video CD or an S-Video CD.
If you are copying a video DVD, the amount of data is reduced to the storage capacity of a recordable blank DVD (4.7 GByte) by means of the Automatic Resize option.
If you choose the Customized Resize Option, you can define the size of the video and the quantity of audio data.You can see the quality in each case by means of the Preview tab.
Direct creates a 1:1 copy.The prerequisite for this is that the source DVD is smaller than the target DVD.
The Automatic option creates a DVD. This has important repercussions on the ô Customized Resizeö dialogue, as the DVD copying process is fundamentally different from the DVD to (S)VCD copying process.
This setting only applies for copies from DVD to (S)VCD. With the Automatic option, you can create a letterbox copy with a side ratio of 4:3.A video CD is unable to display a video in widescreen format (16:9); a DVD player basically reproduces video with a side ratio of 4:3, which means that videos that have been recorded in 16:9 format are distorted when played back.The 16:9 option is suitable for playing back on televisions that can be set manually to this format.
Using the "Advanced" button, you can gain access to four additional tabs, which you can use to set up your DVD individually.
NOTE: Which of the four options provided are possible depends on the disk used and on your computer.
