The General tab is divided into the Video mode and Nero SmartEncoding areas.
In the Video mode area, the color transmission system is defined specifically. This guarantees that videos can be displayed on the existing playback devices. The following entries are available in the drop-down menu:
|
PAL
|
Selects the PAL video mode, which is used in Europe, as also in Australia, South America, and many African and Asian countries.
|
|
NTSC
|
Selects the NTSC video mode, which is used in extensive parts of America and some East Asian countries.
|
|
[Country]
|
Automatically sets the correct video mode for the selected country.
If you are unsure about the video mode that is used in your country, select your country from the country list.

The following options are available in the drop-down menu in the Nero SmartEncoding area:
|
Disable
|
Deactivates SmartEncoding. Video and audio material which is already compatible with the target format is still re-encoded.
|
|
Automatic
|
Determines automatically whether video and audio material is re-encoded. Nero Vision checks, among other things, how much space is available for the project and then determines which compatible segments are re-encoded. This entry is selected by default.
|
|
Enable
|
Activates SmartEncoding. Video and audio material which is compatible with the target format is not re-encoded. This saves a lot of time for large-scale projects, so that you achieve your goal much faster.
