3.3 Burning data using an external program
Just burn the data using exactly the same data structure the MediaDistribution has built up
before. Neither delete any folder/file nor rename one of them nor move any file into another
folder. In case you decide not to transmit some files to a final customer, you will have to
delete these before starting the distribution software.
The Mediadistribution is creating folders with the media name defined before followed by a
serial number e.g. DVD1, DVD2, ...).
IMPORTANT: Burn the CONTENT of the folder DVD1* on the first DVD then burn the CON-
TENT of the folder DVD2* on the second DVD etc. The data distributed on the hard disk
must be visible finally in the root directory of the DVD as show in the graphic below!); oth-
erwise the WinCan8 Viewer will NOT start automatically after sliding in the DVD in the drive.
HINT: Always check if the data are readable after burning before you forward the DVDs to
your customer.
