Use fixed destination folder
When this option is enabled, the folder in the textbox below will be used as output folder. This folder can be selected by clicking on the Select button.
When this option is disabled, DVD2one will display a directory requester to select the output folder before processing is started.
Disable automatic resize of table columns
Most of the screens in DVD2one use a tableviews to display data like audio tracks, subtitles and chapters. Unfortunately the automatic resize function of the Operation System not always resizes the columns of a tableview conveniently. With this option you can disable the automatic resizing, and all tableviews will use a predefined column width.
Burning
Output type
DVD2one will output a dvd-video compliant fileset; a set of IFO, VOB and BUP files. This is the same set of files that DVD2one takes as input.
DVD2one will output only 1 file; a ready to burn dvd imagefile. This file contains the same dvd-video compliant fileset as mentioned above, plus ISO9660 and UDF1.02 directory structures.
DVD2one will create an imagefile as mentioned above and will burn it automatically to a dvd recordable or rewritable disk after processing.
DVD2one will bring up this screen as you click the process button. You can then select what kind of output you want.
DVD name
This is the name that is given to the output.
When the output is a fileset, it will be the name of the directory in which the fileset is stored.
When the output is an image, it will be the name of the imagefile itself as well as the volume name of the dvd when the image is burned on a recordable or rewritable.
Image location
This option is only used when the output type is set to burn.
DVD2one will put the imagefile in the temporary folder and will delete it after burning is completed.
DVD2one will ask you where you want to put the imagefile, just like it will do when the output type is set to image. After burning the imagefile is not deleted, so that you can burn it again.
DVD recorder
Here you can select which dvd recorder DVD2one has to use for burning in case you have more than 1 recorder.
Erase RW-media
When you insert a rewritable disk, DVD2one will detect whether the disk is empty or already used before.
The disk will be overwritten without asking, even when it already contains data.
When the disk is not empty, DVD2one will ask whether the data on this disk may be overwritten.
DVD name from source
When this option is enabled, the DVD name will be deducted from the pathname of the source. This will be the name the last subdirectory, or the name of its parent directory when the last subdirectory is called VIDEO_TS.

When this option is enabled, DVD2one will eject the disk automatically after a successful burn.

Audio Remaster
Decode Artist and Album names
Artist and album names are not automatically filled in for an album.
The artist and album names are extracted from the directory path of the filenames of the songs. This is possible because iTunes organises its files in subdirectories per artist and subdirectories per album. Also on the PC you can instruct audiograbbers like CDeX and ExactAudioCopy to organise the music this way. DVD2one supports the following 2 formats (# is an optional song index):
Artist/Album/# Song : This is the format iTunes uses, with 2 subdirectories.
Artist - Album/# Song : This format has only 1 subdirectory.
Example for the Mac:
~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Music/Madonna/Ray of Light/09 Frozen.m4a
