Burning a Data DVD with MC Burner
Be careful when you are selecting a Data DVD creation session, because the Data disc button is divided into two sections. On the top side are CDs and on the bottom DVDs. It’s important which one you pick, because if you don’t select DVD, then you will not be able to add more that 700MB worth of data, which is the space limitation of CDs.
Since we picked a Data DVD all data types are supported and can be added to the compilation. Find the files that you are interested in burning, select them and then simply drag and drop them to the empty space at the bottom, where it says Disk Layout. On the left side under Disk Layout you can set the disk name. By default program will add date and time when disc creation was started.
After you finish with the DVD creation select the Burn disc option, from which the arrow points on the image above, select the burner and write speed, click OK and the disc will be burned. MC Burner is a great free alternative to expensive burning suits, and feature selection isn’t that bad, try it and see how it goes.
