Managing pictures on a Windows computer
26
• Once you have created a Video CD, you cannot add
images to the same CD-R.
• There may be a few second-break about every 10
minutes on the created Video CD. This is due to the
AVI format used to create the Video CD, which
divides a picture every 10 minutes (about 4 GB) to
write it on a CD-R.
• The picture being written onto the CD-R does not
appear on the computer screen.
