CD DVD Software

SureThing CD/DVD Labeler v5 Deluxe Edition is the simplest way to create superb, professional-looking labels. Supports all main label brands, LightScribe and direct-to-disc inkjet printers. Whether you make music CDs, burn home videos to DVD, or simply create backup discs, SureThing CD/DVD Labeler v5 Deluxe Edition makes it easy to design, create and print disc labels and case inserts like the expert.

ST v5 Deluxe Edition Supports LightScribe Direct-to-Disc Labeling. LightScribe is HP's newest media technology for labeling discs, called "Direct Disc Labeling," and it's fully supported in SureThing CD/DVD Labeler Deluxe. This exciting technology uses your LightScribe-enabled CD/DVD drive to create silkscreen quality, iridescent labels burned directly to the disc surface, and SureThing is the first dedicated CD/DVD software package to support it. New to SureThing v5 is the ability to print to multiple drives simultaneously and better performance when burning LightScribe discs.

The Deluxe Edition presents almost limitless design variations, all of which can be customized and personalized or you can create your own one. The SureThing v5 even lets you coordinate your designs into project files, letting you apply your CD designs, for example, to cases or inserts without having to create separate designs.

Import song titles, artist & album information directly from your audio CDs or music players into your SureThing designs with a single click! SureThing v5 now supports iTunes (including the ability to grab album art), Windows Media Player, Real Player, WinAmp and others. With SureThing, it no longer matters whether you are importing audio or data playlists–they'll just work for sure.

Now you can set transparency for text, objects, photos and clipart, allowing you to blend them into background images or into each other for cool effects. SureThing v5 has a font for every occasion, whether you're looking for serif, sans serif, decorative or even symbol fonts, we've got you covered. And they're all integrated into the SmartDesign layout assistant, making it easy to choose a perfect font combination for any layout.

You can add your images directly from scanner or digital camera, or use them as backgrounds, create photo collages and more. Photo-editing tools let you crop, rotate and re-size images until you achieve the precise look you want. Enhance photos with built-in tools and effects. Crop or rotate an image for the perfect fit, reduce red eye, or even sharpen and lighten the photo. For a unique look, add a special effect to photos or backgrounds using the Sepia, Colorize, Posterize or Solarize filters.

Circular Text tool lets you easily create text that follows the contour of CD and DVD edges. Works with any font at any size, and lets you scale, position and rotate the text just by moving the mouse. You can even create spiral and spoke text effects, perfect for song/scene titles, copyright text or any text at all. Make text pop off your labels using angles, arches, spirals, drop shadows and more! Just type your own text, select a 3D style, choose a variation, then set colors, outlines, drop shadows, backgrounds, etc.

SureThing's Background Collage feature is a fun, simple and understandable tool that lets you quickly draw together any of your digital photos and images to create a custom collage you can use as a background for your label and jewel case designs.

The DVD-lab PRO version is a next step in DVD-authoring. Multiple audio, multiple subtitle support, play lists, counter and random lists, various levels of scripting even down to the virtual machine script and script debugger--yet it still keeps the clear and accessible interface.

Version 2.5 features: fix chapter skip and splice point; installation update; added HPI file format.

Novices may feel they need a PhD in discology to use DVD-lab Pro, but we think it makes producing professional-quality DVDs as easy and fun as possible. Definitely not for the casual enthusiast, it allows you to master and burn DVDs at any resolution with multiple soundtracks, subtitles, access or region tests, and sophisticated navigation menus.

The app comes with a large library of backgrounds, textures, buttons, animations, and shapes to help you on your way, but designing a menu is as easy as dragging and dropping stock elements. More hardcore users can design new components using the built-in Basic-like language. The Connections panel lets you visually arrange the components of your DVD, however sophisticated it may be. Tabs are prolific and useful in its interface, and a small screen is available for on-the-go previewing.

DVD-lab Pro supports PAL and NTSC, and includes a handful of utilities for adjusting the low-level aspects of your DVD, such as the regional code and the relationship between the audio and video streams. All this power doesn't come cheaply, though, so DVD-lab Pro is recommended only to advanced users who want to design professional-looking DVDs and know what they're doing.

A powerful and easy to use program that makes DVD backups a breeze. With Easy DVD Clone you can make clones of your favorite DVD movies on DVD or hard drive with just a few clicks - either complete with all the extras or just the main movie only, in selected audios and/or subtitles.

You can make DVD backup clones fastely! The cloning engine can shrink any DVD video (up to 9.4GB) on to your DVDR disc (4.7GB or 8.5GB) with no loss of content or quality. It copies the complete DVD with all menus, trailers, language tracks, subtitles, stereo, and 5.1 surround with DTS or Dolby Digital. If desired, you an copy only the main movie (feature film), in selected audios and subtitles. This product also supports splitting the content of a 9GB DVD onto two 4.7GB DVDs and copying episode DVDs (for example: television programs on DVD). The DVD clones can be played on almost any DVD player. The program supports a broad range of DVD-R/RW and DVD+R/RW (including dual/double layer, DL) burner drives. It is easy to use, no special knowledge or skill is required.

Format supported: DVD to DVD, DVD to hard drive, hard drive to DVD, hard drive to hard drive, and burn existing DVD files to recordable DVDR disc directly.

Stop re-purchasing DVDs that have been scratched. Backing up your DVDs makes you a smart collector!
