Conversion Process
 Now that all the settings are out of the way you are ready to begin encoding. To start the conversion simply click the Convert button.
Encoding
 The first thing in the conversion process will be the encoding process. The program gives you the information on the estimated time remaining but it might not show up at the beginning of the process. On the status bar of the program you will see information on the current frame being encoded (although this number should be increasing very quickly).
You also see the speed at which you are encoding. In this picture its encoding at 36.8fps (1.53x) so it is encoding the movie just a small bit slower than if you were playing it back. You also see the average bitrate.
Burning
Depending on whether you selected it to automatically happen or not, you may be prompted to insert blank DVD media. As you can see you once again have the option to select the proper burner. You can select the speed at which you will burn (speed should automatically be selected based on the maximum write speed of your media). Delete folder after successful burn does exactly as it says, and should be selected if you are running on low disk space. The Volume Name of the DVD can be set to whatever you desire.
The burning will automatically begin a number of seconds after you insert blank media but you can also click Burn to start it quicker or Cancel to finish the entire process without burning (folder wont be deleted).
Success?
This is the message you should receive if the process was successful. If you didn't burn it during the process then you can simply click Action --> Burn DVD now. Of course, you can burn it with other software too if you wish
Finally
Well that's pretty much all of ConvertXtoDVD covered. This guide will be updated with future updates of the software. If you have any questions or problems, please visit our Discussion Forums and seek help there.
