Using the Bundled Software
Use the bundled software to create or play back CDs and DVDs on your
computer with the DVDirect.
Using “Nero StartSmart,” your central starting point for all your audio, video,
data, backup, and recording tasks, you can choose a task from several
categories, launch Nero applications, use tools, and view manuals. (Refer to
the manuals or the online help for each application for details on their
operation.)
To launch “Nero StartSmart,” double-click the “Nero StartSmart” icon, or
start [Nero StartSmart] from the program menu.
Move the cursor onto each icon or application to display a summary in a pop-
up window. Click any of the icons or applications that you intend to use.
• Using software other than the bundled software (such as commercially
available software, shareware, or freeware) to write data to disc with the
DVDirect is not under warranty, and Sony provides no customer service for
such use.
• Make sure that the bundled writing software and other writing software do
not coexist on your computer. In particular, if another packet writing
software
*
exists in your computer, the software and/or computer may operate
erratically.

Such as Drag-to-Disc (ROXIO), Direct CD (ROXIO), B’s CLIP (BHA), or DLA (Sonic).
