Photo Story 3 - burning to DVDs

B

brad

Hi all,

I'm running Photo Story 3 with the Sonic addon that helps PS3 burn
DVD's. I told it to burn 10 copies of my video to DVD. I noticed
that after each DVD is burned, I have to wait through the long
rendering step (i.e. it says "converting files..."). And then it
starts physically burning the next DVD. Why does it have to go
through the "converting file" step *every* time? That step takes a
long time to complete - seems like it should only have to do that step
once and then burn the converted file 10 times to DVD's.

Or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks,
Brad

====================================
AFAIK...that's just what it does.

Maybe the following alternative would be worth
a try:

Download and install the freeware ImgBurn and
use it to create an image of your DVD. Once you
have the image you can burn as many DVDs as
you wish.
