Saving a CD Layout
You can create a CD layout, save it, then use it at a later time to add
more files and create your CD.
To save a CD layout, follow these steps:
1 Select Save As from the File menu.
2 Type in a file name for the CD layout.
3 Select the location where you want to store the CD layout and
click Save.
Opening an Existing CD Layout
To open a CD layout you have previously saved:
■ Select Open CD Layout from the File menu.
Easy CD Creator displays the contents of the CD layout. You can
make further modifications to the CD layout, or create the CD from
the layout. See Defining CD Layout Properties (Optional) on page 4-3.
Advanced Options
The following sections describe the advanced options available in
Easy CD Creator.
Using File Ordering Priorities
Easy CD Creator allows you to specify the file ordering priorities—the
order in which files are physically written to the CD. To optimize CD
access, you may want to specify that some files be written to the CD
before other files. This does not affect the logical directory structure,
but may improve the access time when reading the CD.
The three different default file ordering options are:
■
Normal—files are recorded in the order in which they appear
in the CD layout (this is the default setting)
■
Faster Access—specifies that files are written to CD before files
that are assigned a Normal priority
■
Fastest Access—specifies that files are written to CD first,
before Normal and Faster Access files, to optimize CD access
