Save One Compression To Speed Burning On Multiple Discs?

[h2ohaus]

Is there a way to save the Toast-compressed file so the program can just burn the same thing onto multiple discs? Going through the same compress, then burn steps for multiple copies of the same video seems really inefficient.

 

I'm burning several copies of the same video via "DVD-Video from VIDEO-TS", with "Fit-to-DVD video compression" option. Each time I do this, there's almost an hour of time occupied by Toast 7 doing the compression, followed by about 45 minutes of actually burning the disc.

 

Thanks for any suggestions!

When you click the big red button you can tell it how many copies you want to burn and it only compresses once.

When I click on the big red button, the only choice I'm given is to insert a blank disc. Tried right- and left-clicking. I sure appreciate the help. Any more guidance?

Choose Save as Disc Image from the File menu instead of clicking the burn button. You then can use the Image File setting in the Toast Copy window to burn discs from that disc image whenever you like.

Excellent! I'll give that a try. Thanks again for your promp help.
