Alex,
1 Use EyeTV to edit away the stuff before, after, and in (adverts)
the material you want to keep.
2 Save and close edited material.
3 Open Toast and compose DVD, Don't worry if it indicates you will
need more than one DVD. Create DVDs up to 3 hrs, but note that the
final product will have quality reduced if the total content is more
than about 90 min.
4 Save you new DVD as a Disk image, using the menu File/Save as Disk Image...
5 Swich to Copy/Image File in Toast, or double click on the image
file that you recently saved
6 Make sure that you have enabled 'Fit to DVD video compresson'
7 Hit the burn button. You should then see Toast first compressing
the content, then burning it.
8 The above results in just enough compression to produce a totally
full normal DVD.
9 Phone if you still have problems.
I have been burning shows recorded with EyeTV by hitting the Toast
button (using Toast Titanium 7.1.3). This only works for shows
under 1.5 hrs in duration. I believe I have to export to another
format to be able to fit the longer shows onto a DVD.
Can someone please inform as to the best format to use so that it
can play on a standard DVD player? Also, do I export and save to
hard drive and then burn in a second step? Does this take an
extraordinarily long time?
Many thanks for your assistance,
Cheers, Alex
