Storing Data Files on Disc

When storing data files on a disc, it is important to note that:
•
You can add new data files to a CD-R and a DVD+R in a later
recording session, until the disc is full. With DVD+R discs, you need to
select the correct setting in RecordNow! to record files in a later
session. To do this, insert your recorded DVD, open RecordNow!, click the
Options icon (wrench), click Data, select the recording option you want, and
then click OK.
•
When you record files that have the same name as previously recorded files,
RecordNow! updates the file and the previous version is overwritten.
•
RecordNow! allows you to change file names and titles of files you want to
record and names of files that were previously recorded.
•
As you select data files to record to your disc, RecordNow! calculates and
displays the amount of recording space used on your disc.
