Burning DivX Swap Disk:

Burning the DIVX DC disk with the movies on it is quite easy, just use any program, even windows xp, and just burn it as regular files. It does not matter how you burn it as long as its regular files, any mode etc will work. Consult your CD Burner Software manual if you need help on burning any files.
