From the Layers pop-up menu, choose whether to burn a single-layer or dual-layer disc.
Important:
Selecting “Dual-layer” when using a single-layer disc can result in an error during
burning, depending on the project’s length.
4
Choose an available template from the “Disc template” pop-up menu.
5
Enter the name of the disc in the Title field.
By default, the name of the disc is the project name.

To specify the DVD player’s action when the disc is inserted, choose an item from the “When disc
loads” pop-up menu.
Choose Show Menu to have a main menu appear. Choose Play Movie to begin playing the
movie immediately.

In the Options pane, do one of the following:
•
If you’re burning to a disc (instead of creating a disk image): Click the eject button at the right
of the Output device pop-up menu, insert a blank disk into your disc-burning device, then
click Burn.
Important:
If you click Burn before inserting a dual-layer destination disc, Motion assumes it is
a single-layer disc, resulting in only half the disc being used, and poorer-quality video.
•
If you’re creating a disk image file: Choose Hard Drive from the Output device pop-up menu,
click Next, enter a name for the file, choose a location, then click Save.
Important:
By default, the Share feature assumes single-layer media for disk images and
adjusts the bit rate accordingly.
To monitor the render progress, use Share Monitor. For more information, see
on page 1044.
Burn a Blu-ray or AVCHD disc, or to create a disk image Blu-ray file

In the window that appears, choose a file destination from the “Output device” pop-up menu.
The pop-up menu displays your system’s suitable output devices, including optical drives and
the computer’s hard disk. Each device is identified by the type of output it supports (Blu-ray or
AVCHD). To create a disk image (.img) file that you can copy to an external drive or burn to Blu-
ray media later, choose Hard Drive.
