Welcome
Welcome to the CyberLink family of digital video tools! CyberLink
Power2Go is a disc-burning program, which is a handy utility for
burning discs containing movies made using CyberLink’s movie-
making software, or when you want to make music discs, data discs,
and even bootable discs.
Power2Go’s main features include the following:
burns data, music, movie, and mixed media discs
converts audio files to and from the .MP3, .WAV, and .WMA
formats as well as different qualities
erases discs that contain unwanted content
copies entire discs
creates slideshows from individual photo files
Power2Go Express mode supports drag-and-drop to desktop
icons for burning in the fewest number of steps
burns DVD folders to disc
supports CD text for additional textual information (such as a
description of the artist or song) with audio tracks
Chapter 1: Introduction

The Power2Go Program
The CyberLink Power2Go program can run in either of two modes:
Power2Go Express mode or Power2Go mode. Power2Go Express
mode is the simpler of the two modes, allowing you to burn discs in
two steps. Power2Go mode, on the other hand, offers you access to
more options and disc utilities.
Power2Go Express Mode
Power2Go Express mode uses the following icons, placed on your
desktop:
Note: You can click and drag the entire column of icons to a
different location on your desktop, or right-click on a single icon
to move it individually.
Drag data files to this icon to burn a data disc. (See Burn a
Data Disc in Power2Go Express Mode on p.26.)
Drag music files to this icon to burn an Audio CD music
disc. (See Burn an Audio CD Music Disc in Power2Go
Express Mode on p.30.)
Drag video files to this icon to burn a movie disc. (See

Disc Capacity Bar
At the bottom of the program window is the disc capacity bar, which
displays a graph of the current and maximum capacity of the disc.
(The capacity bar appears after you have selected a burning task.)
Below the graph is detailed information about the disc, such as the
number of folders and files in the current project and on the disc, as
well as the disc’s free and used space. Use this bar to keep track of the
amount of content you add to the disc.
The capacity bar may display a certain amount of used space even
before you add files to be burned to your disc. This is because more
data gets burned to the disc than just the files you select. This extra
data includes the disc's file system, data specific to the file format you
choose, as well as fixed spaces that must be retained between files,
sessions, and audio tracks. The real used space is displayed on the
capacity bar to give you an accurate indication of how much data can
be burned to a disc, instead of relying on trial and error when filling a
disc to capacity.

Burning Discs
The fastest way to burn any kind of disc is to drag and drop files from
Windows Explorer onto the appropriate icon on the desktop. This
method of burning is called Power2Go Express mode. This method is
presented first in each of the following sections, as you may be able to
accomplish your burning task without even opening the Power2Go
program.
If you need to select more detailed options, or if you are already
working in the Power2Go program, you can perform the same
burning tasks within the program itself. This method of burning is
called Power2Go mode, and is described after the Power2Go Express
procedure, being the slightly longer and more complex process.
Multisession Discs
Multisession discs allow you to append additional data after the
original burning session. Power2Go creates a multisession disc
whenever you burn a CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-R, or DVD+R disc and
choose not to close the disc. Therefore, you can continue to add
content to a multisession disc until the disc is full or closed, at which
point you can no longer append any further data.
CyberLink Power2Go
26

Burn a Mixed Disc
The Mixed Disc option allows you to burn mixed content to CD. The
different disc formats (CD Extra, Mixed Mode CD, and HighMAT)
allow you to burn different types of media to the same disc. Each of
the formats is slightly different, so the different formats are presented
seperately below.
CD Extra
The CD Extra format allows you to burn audio files (in .CDA, .MP3,
.WAV, or .WMA format) in Audio CD format followed by data files
and folders on the same CD-R/RW disc. You can play the music on
your computer with the proper playback software or in a normal CD
player, and view the data files like a normal data disc.

1. Open Power2Go. In the Select a Burning Task window, click the
Mixed Disc icon, then select CD Extra. The CD Extra window
opens.
2. Select your burning drive from the drop-down box.

any format. However, you must copy the disc contents onto a blank
disc of the same format. (You cannot, for example, copy content from
a CD onto a DVD.)
Note: Some discs may not be copied if they are copy-protected
or contain errors.
The procedures for copying a disc from inside the Power2Go
program or in Power2Go Express mode are very similar. Only the
first step for opening the Copy Disc window is slightly different.
To copy a disc, do this:
1. Open Power2Go.
2. Open the Copy Disc window.
Power2Go mode: In the Select a Burning Task window, click
the Copy Disc icon , then click OK.

CD vs. DVD
CDs and DVDs look the same and do pretty much the same thing:
store data. Both can be used to record data, music, or video files.
However, CDs and DVDs are incompatible, bringing different
advantages and disadvantages. Therefore, the decision of which to
use is left up to you. You can avoid any confusion over which disc
type to use by asking yourself two simple questions:
What disc type is supported by my disc burner?
What disc type is supported by my disc player?
Knowing the answers to these questions goes a long way towards
deciding on a disc type: after all, you want to be able to play your disc
after burning it, and of course, your burner must support the disc
type you want to create.
In broad terms, discs are divided into CD (which, being the earlier
technology, is more widely supported) and DVD (which holds seven
times the amount of content, but requires a special drive). Following
is a brief description of the different disc types supported by
CyberLink Power2Go.
Chapter 4: Appendix
59
CD Types
CDs contain up to 74/80 minutes of high quality video or 650/700
MB of data.
CD-R
CD-R is a once-writable format. CD-RW burners and
most new DVD burners can write in CD-R, and most
DVD players can also read this format. The CD-R
format is commonly used for distribution of
computer data and digital audio.
CD-RW
CD-RW is a rewritable CD format. CD-RW burners
and most new DVD burners can write in CD-RW,
and most DVD players can also read this format.
The CD-RW format is best suited for storage of
computer data and digital audio.
CyberLink Power2Go
60
DVD Types
DVD is a high capacity disc that holds anywhere from 4.7-17 GB of
data, or from roughly 2-8 hours of video (depending on the type of
DVD). Using the High Quality setting, you can expect to be able to
record 1-2 hours of video.)
DVDs can be played on DVD players and computers equipped with
DVD drives. For more detailed information on DVD-R/RW formats,
see www.dvdrhelp.com/dvd or other web sources. For more detailed
information on DVD+R/RW formats, see www.dvdrw.com or other
web sources.
DVD-R
DVD-R is a once-writable DVD format. It is a
competitor product to DVD+R, and is therefore not
compatible with that format. Some new DVD burners
can write in both DVD-R and DVD+R, and most
DVD players can read both formats.
DVD-RW
DVD-RW is a DVD format that can be written to
about 1,000 times. It is a competitor product to
DVD+RW, and is therefore not compatible with that
format. Some new DVD burners can write in both
DVD-RW and DVD+RW, and most DVD players can
read both formats.
DVD+R
DVD+R is a once-writable DVD format. It is a
competitor product to DVD-R, and is therefore not
compatible with that format. Some new DVD burners
can write in both DVD-R and DVD+R, and most
DVD players can read both formats.
DVD+RW
DVD+RW is a rewritable DVD format that can be
written to about 1,000 times. It is a competitor
product to DVD-RW, and is therefore not compatible
with that format. Some new DVD burners can write
in both DVD-RW and DVD+RW, and most DVD
players can read both formats.
Chapter 4: Appendix
61
DVD-RAM
DVD-RAM is a DVD format that can be written/
rewritten to about 100,000 times. While DVD-RAM’s
boasts technological advances, it is incompatible with
many DVD burners and players.
