![]() ![]() Toast keeps a copy of the HD video you burn to disc, so you can preview it on your Mac.Ĭopying discs is simple with just a click – Toast is an easy program to use for the simple task of copying discs and it is super-quick with multiple drives. This way you can get more video onto the disc. As well as burning to regular CD and DVD, you can fit HD video onto DVD for viewing on a Blu-ray player. For example, it’s quick to get video direct from an AVCHD camcorder direct to standard DVD, and you can stream video from the internet and burn it straight to DVD for playing in your DVD player. One way Toast makes it easier to get your images, movies and music on disc is by streamlining the capture process. It handles AVCHD, AVI, DV, MJPEG, MOV, FLV, F4V, VIDEO_TS folder, EyeTV recordings, TiVoToGo transfers, BMP, JPG, GIF, PSD, PDF, PNG, and TIFF. Toast supports MP3, MP4, WAV, AAC, AIFF, and FLAC. Once you click on an option it takes you through to the next stage of the process where you can configure the settings and ultimately burn to your selected disc. You choose a main option - Data, Audio, Video, Copy or Convert - and from those options come a variety of choices, for example to create an audio CD, a music DVD, or an MP3 disc. Roxio Toast Titanium provides you with fast, effective, efficient disc burning capabilities whether you want to transfer data to DVD, VCD, HD DVD, Blu-ray, or CD.
