making a disk from the disk image ISO file

[Selwyn Berg]

i HAVE VIDEO STUDIO 12.
I HAVE AN ASUS MOTHERBOARD AND XP PRO PROGRAM
THE VIDEO CARD IS AN XFX
THE PROBLEM IS SIMPLE- I THINK.
CORAL SUGGESTS MAKING A DISK IMAGE WITH EACH FINAL DVD VIDEO DISK
I would like to make another DVD using the disk image I produced and is stored in the DISK IMAGE file. However, the SHARE option does not recogize any of the files in the"12/disk image" folder.
HOW DO I PRODUCE A DISK FROM THE DISK IMAGE FILE?

THE INSRUCTION MANUAL DOES NOT TELL YOU HOW TO DO IT AND CORAL IS NOT MUCH HELP IN ANYTHING.

Selwyn -- first of all you must learn some net etiquette (netiquette!)... Typing in capital letters is regarded as screaming and is not appreciated at all. So any future posts should be done in normal lower case with upper case only when necessary.

Next, I am surprised that Corel (Corel not Coral) seems to suggest that. Though I can understand that it could be handy in situations such as yours. However, there is no way that Video Studio itself can burn a disk image (ISO) file to disk. With some very much earlier versions of the program, they used to include a little program which would burn image files, but that was discontinued about three versions ago. Now you have to use third party software like Nero to burn ISO files -- or even DVD Folders -- to disk.

Hello Selwyn Berg,

If you have a created a disc image (.iso) then you may want will need to use a burning program that can recognize the disc image that you created. I would suggest that you use the DVD Movie Factory 7 Pro, since it include the Corel Burn.Now 4.5 application that supports disc image and duplicate that to a real disc.

You can download the trial of DVD Movie Factory 7 Pro from http://www.corel.com/trials, once you have downloaded the trial version, here's the steps on how to duplicate the disc image that you created.

If you created a disc image file from a source disc, or if you previously saved a disc image file for a data, MP3, or audio disc created in Burn.Now, you can easily burn multiple disc copies using the image file.

To burn a disc from a disc image file:

1. Insert a blank disc in your disc burner.
2. In the Select a Task dialog box, select Copy Disc.
3. Under Source, select Disc image file then click Browse to open an image file.
4. Under Destination, choose your burner drive.
5. Click Advanced to see more burning options.
6. Set the Write speed. If there is a disc inserted in the burner drive, the program will check the write speed of the burner and the disc, and by default, will choose the highest speed that both can handle.
7. Specify the number of disc Copies to burn.
8. Select Buffer underrun protection to prevent interruptions in the flow of data from the hard disk to the burner and ensure a safe burn.
9. Click Copy to start the burning process.
