Burning Page - Burn DVD Wizard

Use the Burning page of the Burn DVD Wizard to view information about the current burning process, and control further burning processes.

When this page is first displayed, the burning process will take place right away. If the target device is not loaded with a disc yet, the burning process will wait until you insert the required type of disc (the Waiting for disc Dialog will be shown). If you specified an ISO Image Writer as your target, the wizard may ask you if you want to overwrite the target file if the same file name was found on disk.

If the target device is not loaded with a disc yet, the burning process will wait until you insert the required type of disc (the Waiting for disc Dialog will be displayed).

If you specified the ISO Image An ISO image (.iso) is a disk image of a file system. It includes data files that are contained in the ISO image along with filesystem metadata. ISO images are an alternative to physical media for distribution of a "DVD" over the Internet. Most operating systems allow ISO images images to be "played" as if they were physical discs. See also: DVD Image. Writer as your target, the wizard may ask you if you want to overwrite the target file if the same file name was found on disk.
