AVS Video Converter allows to burn a DVD video. While creating a DVD you might need to split it into chapters for more convenience. Dividing into chapters lets you easily find the necessary video file or part of the video.

First you select the input files. Then you set chapters, which will allow you to navigate through your DVD quickly and easily.

Step 1.  Launch AVS Video Converter. Click the "Browse..." button. Select video files and click Open.





You can use +/- buttons to add or remove files from the list, and use arrows buttons to change the positions of files in the list.


Step 2.  Click the "Formats" tab, then click "To DVD" button. Select Profile Preset from the drop-down list.





Step 3.  Click the second "Browse..." button and select a temporary folder on your hard disk for the output video file.


Step 4.  Click the "Edit" button to start the edit mode.





Step 5.  In the opened window click the "Chapters" central button. If you are burning several files to a DVD, click the "Auto Set Chapters" button on the Timeline Toolbar and choose one of the following options:

At the Beginning of Each Clip - if you want chapters to be placed at the beginning of each video;

At a Time Interval - if you want to assign an interval at which the chapters will be added over a duration of all the added videos;

As in Input File(s) - if you want chapters to be set as in your input file.





Step 6.  You can add chapters manually -- click on the timeline where a chapter should start. Press F8 on the keyboard or click the "Add Chapter" button. Navigate the timeline this way and add as many chapters, as you wish. To set chapters more precisely use the Zoom slider to zoom in/out the timeline.





Step 7.  Click the "Disc Menu" central button to start editing your DVD Menu. Select one of the Disc Menu Styles by double-clicking it. Switch between the Main Page and the Chapters page in the Preview Area. To assign your own background pictures left-click the Working Areas at the bottom of the main window and choose the desired image or video file.





In the Settings section of the main window you can change the Disc Menu Title, assign your own Background Music or set the Number of chapters on page using the appropriate controls.

Click the Ok button in the bottom right corner of the window to switch back to the conversion mode.

Now your files are ready to be converted and burnt to a DVD. Next:
