3. Prepare Your Video:
- Convert to a compatible format: Ensure your video is in a format supported by the chosen disc type. Common formats include MP4, AVI, and MKV.
- Adjust video quality: If necessary, compress the video to fit the disc's storage capacity.
4. Burn the Video to Disc:
- Insert the disc: Place the blank disc into your computer's optical drive.
- Start the burning process: Open your burning software and follow the on-screen instructions.
- Select the video file: Choose the video file you want to burn.
