WinDVD Creator Plus also offers the capability to record video directly to DVD
recordable media using “Disk Manager.” This is done without using any additional
space on your hard disk. With Disk Manager, you can capture new video or use
video files you already have, and then finish your movie by creating a customized
menu. Your movie can be created in either +VR or –VR video formats. Through
Disk Manager, you can edit your movie at any time, adding or deleting video
segments or changing your customized menu.
