DVD authoring

DVD authoring is like making a movie into a DVD that you can play on a DVD player. First, you need to gather all the pieces of the movie together, like the pictures and sounds. Then, you need to put them in the right order, like a story.

The DVD authoring software helps you do this. It lets you make menus and buttons so that people can choose which part of the movie they want to watch. The software also lets you add special features, like behind-the-scenes videos or commentaries from the actors.

Once you have everything put together, the software will help you burn the movie onto a DVD disc. This means that you turn the digital movie into a physical DVD that you can hold in your hand.

Now, you can watch your movie on a TV using a DVD player. You just need to pop the DVD disc into the player and use the remote to press play. And voila! Your movie will start playing on the TV.
