These are the minimum system requirements for installing and using the DVD Creator:
- A PC or laptop running on Windows XP or Windows Vista.
- A single-core 1.8 GHz Intel Pentium or single-core 2.4 GHz Celeron/AMD processor and 128 MB memory.
A dual-core 2.4 GHz processor and 512 MB memory is recommended for uninterrupted playback on the PC.
- A display monitor card with at least 1024x768 display size and 16-bit color resolution.
24- or 32-bit color resolution is recommended for best possible DVD-video quality.
- A sound card.
- 29 MB of free disk space to install the program files,
plus at least 10 GB of free disk space to be able to create 1 single-layer 4.7 GB DVD,
plus any additional disk space required for capturing video from capture devices,
plus another 4.7 GB free disk space in case of use of material (importing) from existing DVD's.
- A DVD-burning device to be able to actually burn the DVD's.
If you are unsure if your system meets these requirements, then just
download the DVD Creator and give it a try. The software is fully functional during a 7 day evaluation period.
And recommended, but not required:
- A video device connector (also known as Firewire, iLink (Sony) or 1394 adapter), or USB port on the PC, to connect video capture devices or digital camcorders for external video input.
- A digital camcorder to import your own video's.
- A video capture card, to be able to also use analogue video material on VHS tapes for example.
Some digital camcorders can also act as a capture device, if it has an analogue video input connection.
Most times the camcorder can simply acts as the "loop-through" from the analogue input to the digital output, or else you first record on camera-tape, after which you can play the tape back to capture this on the PC.
