Written by

in

AVS Disc Creator is a comprehensive tool used to burn data, audio, and video files directly onto CD, DVD, and Blu-ray discs. Depending on what you want to achieve, there are two primary ways to burn standard DVDs and Blu-rays: burning prepared movie folders/data directly using AVS Disc Creator, or converting and authoring media using the integrated AVS Video Converter workflow.

The step-by-step processes to complete these tasks are detailed below. Method 1: Burning Existing Blu-ray or DVD Video Folders

If you already have structured movie files on your hard drive (like a VIDEO_TS folder for DVD or BDMV / CERTIFICATE folders for Blu-ray), you can burn them directly. AVS4YOU >> AVS Disc Creator >> Overview

Launch the software: Open AVS Disc Creator from your Windows Start Menu. Select the disc type:

Click DVD Video on the main toolbar to burn a playable home DVD.

Click Blu-ray or Data Disc if you are writing high-capacity data files to a BD-R or BD-RE disc.

Insert media: Put a blank compatible disc into your optical drive. If you have multiple drives, select the target drive from the dropdown list. Add your files:

For DVDs, click Add DVD Video… and select the VIDEO_TS folder from your computer.

For Blu-rays, drag and drop the BDMV and CERTIFICATE directories into the file area.

Check capacity: Look at the Disc Size Meter at the bottom to ensure your data fits perfectly on the disc.

Adjust configuration: Click Settings to set your preferred burning speed and choose the number of copies. Check Verify Disc to ensure the laser records data without errors.

Start burning: Click the Start Burning! button. The drive will automatically eject the completed disc once finalized. Method 2: Creating Playable Discs from Raw Video Files

If you have raw video files (like .mp4, .mkv, or .avi) and want them to play in a standard home theater player, you must convert and author them first using AVS Video Converter.

Import video: Open AVS Video Converter and click Browse to load your movie files.

Choose format: Select To DVD or To Blu-ray from the Formats tab on the top menu toolbar. Choose a profile that matches your geographic television standard (NTSC or PAL).

Design menus (Optional): Click Edit or Menu to split your video into chapters and pick a stylized interactive disc menu.

Convert the video: Set your destination directory and click Convert Now!.

Bridge to burner: Once processing finishes, a pop-up window will appear. Click Burn to Disc… to automatically launch the AVS Video Burner wizard tool.

Finalize: Insert your physical disc, choose your writing options, and hit Start Burning!. Quick Tips for Successful Burning

Erase rewriteable media: If you are reusing a DVD-RW or BD-RE, use the Erase Disc feature. Choose Quick Erase to wipe the index table or Full Format to completely erase confidential data.

Watch your burn speeds: Burning a disc at maximum speed can cause read errors on older physical players. Consider dropping the burn speed down to a medium setting in the software options for better hardware compatibility.

Create ISO backups instead: If you do not have physical discs on hand, you can select the output directory to Create an ISO Image. This saves an exact copy of the media structure right onto your computer hard drive to burn later. If you would like, let me know:

What format your source video files are in (e.g., MP4, MKV, ISO, etc.)

Whether you want to make a playable home movie with menus or a simple data backup
