Once Produce your recording is selected and the OK button is clicked
users will then be prompted to select from various video formats.
After clicking selecting AVI video file, select Next and users
will be presented with the AVI Encoding Options.

For best results for DVD-saved videos, produce
your video as an AVI file using the TSCC video codec and uncompressed
PCM audio.
Note: These are the default settings so users don’t need
to make any adjustments. Click Next.

Select the 720X480 (TV/DVD) video size and Stretch
to Fit setting.
Click Next.

Users will then be presented with the additional wizard steps
for customizing their video further, such as adding a watermark,
copyrighting the content and adding an author name, creating HTML
output, and a SCORM output option for packaging an e-learning lesson.
None of this is required for making your AVI file DVD-ready.
After clicking Next, the Marker Options appears
where users can accept or edit the name of each slide which will
appear later as
DVD chapters. If the presentation already had a name associated
with each slide they are automatically carried over. If not, users
can click on the Change Marker Name… button
and create their own titles. The preview window gives the user
a reference for naming
the slide.

Name and save your file to its desired location. Click Finish and Camtasia Studio will render the file as a lossless AVI source
video file.

That’s it. In most cases users will
only need to select the Camtasia Studio AVI file when adding
media using their DVD
authoring software. So, depending on which DVD-authoring software
you have, the entire process takes only a few minutes. And while
Camtasia Studio has many advanced options for technical users,
most will find they only need to follow the publishing wizard to
achieve great results. Now you can archive your Camtasia Studio
rich media PowerPoint videos so your knowledge, your voice, and
your hard work can be shared for years to come.
