"Absolute Beginner's Guide to Creating CDs and DVDs is the best choice for people who are completely new to compiling and burning CDs and DVDs. Starting with the basics, this book explains the differences in CD formats, including CD, CD-R, CD-ROM, CD-RW, VCD, and Video-CD. It then teaches you the basics of CD burning, including coverage of Roxio Easy CD Creator as well as Windows XP's built-in CD burning function and a few MP3 encoding programs. Audio-related coverage includes projects such as burning an Audio CD, burning a data CD with MP3 files, and burning an MP3 CD that can be played in certain MP3 players. There are also video-related projects, which include burning Video CDs with Ulead's DVD Movie Factory, which includes the ability to encode and prepare discs for the Video CD format. Unlike an audio or data CD, a DVD authoring program is required to combine video, audio and graphics, and create/encode the interactive experience to create a DVD. This book focuses on Ulead's affordable yet powerful DVD Movie Factory, as well as projects that use Sonic's similar DVD software.
