Creating A Movie:


Once we have all of your settings done the rest of the program is very easy to use.

First we need to add the video files, which we want to convert. This can be done by using the File menu or by clicking on the add button on the right hand side of the screen. Alternatively, we can also just drag and drop the files into the main window.

One click onto the add button will open the following window. If we have more than one media file in the same location the program will allow us to add them all in one go. Here we are adding one XviD rip from a DVD.

Now the file has been added, its details can be viewed on the main screen and we can also see that ConvertXtoDVD has automatically added a menu section. If you don't wish to have a menu on your DVD, then you can simply delete it by clicking the red button on the left. At the bottom of the user interface, we can see how much space the movie will take up on the final DVD.

When we decide to have a menu, then the software offers all necessary features, which are needed for a nice looking menu. We can change title, background image, font type, size and also a few other features.

By clicking on the plus symbols in the main window, we will get some additional information about the file properties.

In case the input file includes more audio streams, we can also choose if we want to have all the options on the resulting DVD or not.

If there are no subtitles in the file, then of course, we can also add one from another source. We just need to highlight the subtitle area in the main window and then we chose the 'Add Subtitle Channel" option from the file menu. Another very simple way to add subtitle streams is a right click when the subtitle area is selected.

This will then take you to a window where you can choose your subtitle channel file to load. Generally this will only be available from a ripped DVD.

A click onto the added subtitle file will open a quick info box with the content of the file.

Now we are also able to edit how the files are shown in our final movie. We can define the following things:

  • Language of the subtitle stream
  • Font type and size
  • Font colour and style
  • Code Page setting

Well, that is about it for the program. Now let's see how it performs.

Now let's convert the movie
