Creating a standard
definition image
quality (SD) disc that
can be played on
ordinary DVD players
You can create a standard definition image
quality (SD) disc by selecting movies
and photos previously imported to your
computer (p. 33).
You may select high definition image quality
(HD) movies as sources. However, image
quality is converted from high definition
(HD) to standard definition (SD). It will take a
longer time for converting the image quality of
the movies than it took to actually record the
movies.
