Can I move my "mydvd" project to another drive?

The folder that DVD-A creates is called mydvd (not the sonic software). I suppose I can, but don't want to move the _ts to another drive if it will mess up the creation of additional dvds from the new drive.

The folder can actually be named whatever you want it to be named. However, the Video_TS and Audio_TS folders can be moved to another folder or drive.

simple. I moved mine to an external drive... no problem. Make sure to : in 'Preferences' make your temporary folder points to (for example) D\DVDA Prepair Folder. Then when you prepair your DVD make sure the folder is D\DVDA Prepair\My DVD. And that is where your _TS folders will be.

Actually that isn't good enough unless you preload ALL the files for your project in the folder you move or rename. Been there, done that. DVD-A needs ALL files you used in your project. That means not only the MPEG files that are the videos, also any images you use as backgrounds, background audio etc.. Since I keep all my music files on a seperate disk and I burn DVD's on a seperate PC, I got to remind myself to make copies of such files before I shut down, pull a drive drawer, boot up the 2nd computer, then actually burn the DV, otherwise its shut down the 2nd, PC, pull the drawer, reboot the 1st PC, shutdown, reboot the 2nd again. <wink>

This isn't a "compliant" just a reminder.
