Edit an Existing Project

You can open and edit any projects that you have
already recorded to your hard drive or DVD disc.
You do not have to store your video, audio, or
graphic files on your hard drive in order to edit
your projects.

For more information on advanced editing, see
“What about advanced editing?” on page 4.

Open a recorded DVD file

1. Insert the DVD disc into the DVD-R/RW and

CD-RW Combo drive.

2. Open the MyDVD software.
3. Choose File, then Edit DVD.
4. Select the DVD-R/RW and CD-RW Combo drive

that contains the files.

5. Click OK.

Note: The MyDVD Wizard screen displays. Click Cancel to
close it.

Make edits to your project

From the menu editor, you can:

Add and edit video clips

Create additional menus

Delete buttons

Change menu styles

Modify menu and buttons labels

Add Video Clips

When creating movie clips, you can use chapter
points to separate your video into one or more
sections that are linked to menu buttons.

If you add chapter points while capturing your
video, MyDVD creates menu buttons for each
chapter point and labels them consecutively with
the project name. For example, if the project name
was “My Hockey Games,” then chapter point menu
buttons would be “My Hockey Games 1,” “My
Hockey Games 2,” and so on.
