2. Installation / Starting the program
Your Casablanca system must be equipped with at least 1 GB
RAM to install Arabesk 5.
In order to install and use Arabesk 5, you need at least version
Bogart SE 4.1, or an older version (3.6 / 2.11 / 1.14) of Bogart
SE which has been updated with the Bogart SE 4.1 installation
software.
Leave your system switched on and click the Install Product
button in the system settings. The relevant window will open.
Insert the product CD/DVD containing the Arabesk 5 software
into the DVD/Blu-ray drive of your Casablanca system.
A moment later (if you are installing from CD/DVD, you will
probably hear noises from the drive while the CD/DVD is being
read by the system), you will see that Arabesk 5 is listed in the
Install Product window.
Until now, the product was called DVD Arabesk. Because the
new version can also create Blu-ray disks, we have changed
the name of the product into Arabesk from version 5 onwards.
As a result, you will find the product listed under “A” in the
product installation.
Select it from the list and click on Activate. After a short time,
a numerical keypad will appear. You can use it to enter the
activation code you received from your dealer. The product will
then be activated.
Should you want to install Arabesk 5 as a demo version, you
should select it from the list and click on Activate.
You will notice that the word Demo has appeared after the
program name. Close the installation menu with OK and then
remove the CD/DVD.
Note: When the program is running in Demo mode, you will
have no more than 200 MB at your disposal to add a film, from
a total DVD capacity of 4.7 GB or 8.5 GB. This means that only
very short projects are possible in DVD Demo mode. Addition-
ally, a Demo label will be added to your Arabesk project at
regular time intervals.
The Arabesk program can be started in the main menu of
Bogart SE. You will see the Arabesk program in the area at the
bottom right. Start the program by clicking on it with the left
mouse button.
Note: Should a message appear in this location, indicating that
more recent firmware has been found for your burner, you will
now be able to update the firmware for your DVD/BD burner.
This will enable you to have the totality of the functionality of
your unit at your disposal, and Arabesk will therefore also be
able to make use of it.
