Q: How do you make CD’s for the CP-100 PRO?
A: The simplest way is to use the Datavideo VDR-3000 as a recorder for your
already produced video tracks. Just record your tracks one after the other and
you’re done.
Of course you may use a computer with a CD burner and software that creates
Video CD’s.
If you don’t own a VDR-3000 they are available for rental or purchase from
Datavideo or through many of our dealers.

Q: How do I turn off/on the (OSD) On Screen Display?

Q: Must I use Datavideo’s VDR-3000 when making CD-s for the CP-100 PRO?
A: No…But here are three good reasons why you should consider using it.
(1) The VDR-3000 is a stand alone system that automatically encodes
incoming video and burns a CD without tying up your computer or risking
system failures if you chose to do something else (like check your e-mail) with
an internal CD burner.
(2) Every CD made on the VDR-3000 includes an auto run file that will let it
play back on your pc, without having to manually turn on the Microsoft
viewers.
(3) The CD-DVD format is easily available on the VDR-3000. This format is
equal to the average compression rate of a DVD.
