Product Description
Ahead Software's Nero program is the most popular CD and DVD burning
software in the world. While it seems like it should be easy to burn CDs and DVDs, doing so can be much more complicated than it appears, and many users reach high frustration levels after burning multiple coasters that don't work.
This simple, task-oriented, step-by-step book covers the entire Nero program suite, including audio CD burning, data backup, managing photos, DVD video burning, designing CD/DVD labels, editing sound, creating a virtual drive and CD/DVD data disk, and playing audio and video. This updated revision to the bestseller (nearly 20,000 copies sold), has been completely rewritten to focus on the tasks that most people perform with Nero 7.
Back Cover Copy
Nero 7 Ultra Edition is one of the most powerful CD and DVD burning programs on the market and if you've installed a CD/DVD drive recently, chances are that Nero came with it. But, while Nero is quite an impressive suite of tools, those tools aren't always intuitive to use and several aren't always well documented.
Combining the best parts of a media player, a design program, a sound editor, and a video editor, Nero lets you create CDs and DVDs that will knock your socks off.
This plain English, step-by-step guide to Nero 7 Ultra Edition by best-selling author Wallace Wang takes you through all of Nero's capabilities. You'll learn how to:
Copy music onto a CD, whether to archive your favorite tunes or make the ultimate mix CD
Burn music with the highest sound quality, remove unnecessary pauses, and balance tracks like a pro
Back up your data to free up space on your hard drive and save yourself a lot of grief if your computer crashes
Save your vacation photographs as a slide show to share with friends and family, or make that important presentation really pop with photographs accompanied by music
Burn a DVD of your favorite video moments
Design fantastic labels and disc covers for your CDs and DVDs, turning that mix CD into a perfect gift, and making those home movies look store-bought
Edit sound, including removing the hisses and pops from songs recorded off cassettes and vinyl LPs
Turn your PC into a multimedia entertainment center so you can play MP3 files, video files, and even watch TV on your computer
You'll learn how to get the most out of Nero with the least amount of hassle with
The Book of Nero 7.
Reader ReviewsI have to admit I'm disappointed in this title. I was hoping to get acquainted with the more complex capabilities of this software, but the book doesn't go any further than the free download help files from Nero. The Nero Vision (DVD video burning) material amounts to a little over a dozen pages, with most of the space taken up with screen shots - not really that useful, or, at least, not worth laying out the money for a book. Even the part of "trimming" a video file was wrong based on what I found by trial and error using the real product. If I had it to do over, I'd save my money and pass on this title.
