	Use this button to get an exact copy of the input CD or DVD onto the other disc.  No compression will be used to record the files onto the target disc, so you should bear in mind that it is necessary to use the same disc type and capacity for the recording to be performed correctly.

The Main Area is the central part of the AVS DVD Copy program window that lets the user select the main burning parameters or add files. It looks different depending on the program work mode. For instance, for the Copy DVD work mode it will look the following way:

Here one can select the Source and Target drive or HDD folder, Copy mode for the DVD, check or uncheck the Languages that will be included into the output DVD, set the folder for the temporary files and the target DVD size. See the Copy DVD section for more on all these parameters.

If you select Burn DVD, Burn DATA or Burn ISO work mode, the Main Area will look the following way:

Here you can select the target disc drive or ISO-image to record your data to (please, note, that using ISO-image as target is disabled in Burn ISO work mode) and the files to record to your compilation. You can use the buttons below to add files, ISO-images or folders, erase the inserted disc, set the burning parameters and start disc burning or ISO-image creation. Please see the respective chapters for more details on these actions.

Disc Size Meter is available in the Burn DVD, Burn DATA and Burn ISO work modes. It shows the size of the current disc inserted into the CD/DVD/BD drive and the size of the data that is going to be written onto the disc. Thus, depending on the disc type and its capacity the Disc Size Meter will look differently for a CD, DVD Single Layer or DVD Double Layer and Blu-Ray discs of different capacities.

For instance, for a Double Layer Blu-Ray disc it will look like this:

For a DVD Single Layer it will look like this:

For a CD the Disc Size Meter appearance will change like this:

The Marker shows the standard capacity of a CD-R or a CD-RW - about 700 Megabytes.

When you add data to your compilation the Disc Size Meter will show whether your added data is going to fit your CD/DVD/BD or if it exceeds its capacity.

If the data size is greater than the capacity of a CD/DVD/BD you should either split your data into parts and record these parts onto several CDs/DVDs/BDs or select another disc type with a larger capacity.
