Recording with WinDVD Player

[thebiomed]

Hey everyone,

I will be doing some basic capturing with the Plextor PX-M402U. I will not require to edit the captured video in any way.

Do I need the winDVD creator? Or can I just capture with WinDVD player and store the movies on my HD until I want to burn?

I will be capturing clips that are maximum 2 min. in length.

Thanks for your input

WinDVD Player is just that, a player. You can use any dvd creation software you choose, ULead DVD, WinDVD Creator, Sonic's MyDVD and DVDit, etc.

You use Creator2 to capture mpeg2/divx or vcd clips and WinDVD to playback the MPEG2/DIVX files or DVD. Plextor bundles WinDVD 5 with M402U so buyers can also play DVD on PC.

Use Creator2's DVD high quality presets if you just want to capture a few sets of 2 minute clips. Then author the clips and set them as chapters.
