![]() Toast has been the standard for burning and ease of use for over 10 years. Toast Titanium for Mac can also be called 'Toast 6 Titanium', 'Toast 9 Basic', 'Toast 6 Lite'. Toast Titanium was developed to work on Mac OS X 10.5.0 or later. It is also relatively easy to use, even without referring to the integrated tutorials. The most popular versions of the software are 12.0, 11.2 and 10.0. While it's quite expensive, it provides a good amount of new features that are not natively built into Mac OS X. Toast Titanium for Mac is one of the most feature-rich CD/DVD/Blu-Ray-writing applications available. Large installer: If you plan to get this application online, be sure that you have a fast connection - the installer is a whopping 380.96MB file. ![]() That includes sharing videos online, VideoBoost for faster H.264 codec conversion, and support for multiple disc burners. More than what your Mac offers: Getting Toast Titanium for $99.99 - or significantly less, for those upgrading from a previous version - is justified, because this application offers a good number of features not available on a Mac. In-app updates: Updates are handled in the same way an antivirus software updates its database, which means you don't have to download a humongous new installer. The interface is divided into Tutorials, Data, Audio, Video, Copy, and Convert tabs, and you can hop quickly between tabs and use the different functions without delay.īuilt-in tutorials: If you don't find the interface easy enough to learn, you'll be glad to know that the app comes with integrated video tutorials, which show you how to do file conversions, data backup, video sharing, video editing, and related tasks. Snappy operation: Toast Titanium for Mac proves to be speedy. It's a powerful - albeit expensive - application. Just like the rest of Toast, the Roxio Streamer feature is very simple to set and use.Īdditional bundled software (together with the Streamer software) includes automatic back up software Get backup RE, CD Spin Doctor (for digitising old vinyl records), DiscCatalogMaker RE, TiVo Transfer and Disc Cover 2 RE for creating and printing labels onto compatible CDs and DVDs, plus you also get Toast Video Player thrown in too.Īdd in the more usual features such as disc copy functionality and simple data burning for back-up purposes for example plus cross-platform photo disk creation, using full-resolution images and with fully featured slideshow creation, all makes Toast 9 Titanium pretty much a must-have software item for all Mac users.More than just a CD/DVD/Blu-Ray-burning application, Toast Titanium for Mac includes functions like online media capture, media format conversion, and the ability to directly share your videos on Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, and Vimeo. A separate – floating – media browser allows easy searching and inclusion of your media to be burned be it video, audio or still image content for inclusion in a burning task.Īnd even funkier is the new Roxio Streamer feature that can stream video from your Mac over a Wi-Fi network to another suitably connected Mac or iPhone. Other cool kit includes video conversion for an Apple TV or iPhone and when used, it’ll quickly drop the converted files into iTunes for you if you wish. Natty fit-to-DVD video compression is in there that helps to squeeze larger video or media files onto a DVD that would not normally fit. Duplication of unprotected DVDs you own is possible now to boot, so you can easily back-up old iMovie projects that you might have littering your hard drive or rip unprotected DVDs for playback on a PSP or iPhone. You get an easy visual confirmation across the bottom of Toast’s window for how much room (or not) you have left on a disk you’ve got inserted to burn. In use Toast is very user-friendly since the interface provides a large content area, add or subtract buttons for, adding or subtracting content from, say, your hard disk you want to burn by clicking Toast’s signature big red button. However a downside to this is you can only burn clips like this of around 20-minutes since that’s all you can fit on a standard DVD. ![]() Although Macs don’t currently have Blu-ray disc burning hardware, Roxio are anticipating its introduction in to future models and that aforementioned additional £14.99 Blu-ray plug-in lets Toast 9 Titanium burn DVDs in a format suitable for playback through a Blu-ray player.
