What Wondershare DVD Creator is

Wondershare DVD Creator is a DVD and Blu-ray authoring tool for burning videos and photos, creating DVD menus, and editing movies. It supports video burning in 150 formats to DVD, folders, ISO files, and Blu-ray discs. Supported media include DVD-9, DVD-5, DVD-R/RW, DVD+R/RW, DVD+R DL, DVD-R DL, DVD-RAM, BD-R, BD-RE, BD-25, BD-50, and BD-100; Blu-ray output is available only on Windows. Its editor can trim and crop clips, adjust brightness, contrast, and saturation, apply effects, add watermarks, and use .srt, .ass, and .ssa subtitles. For DVD menus, it provides over 100 static and dynamic templates and customization for background images, music, and title thumbnails. A slideshow maker includes transitions, background music or text, photo duration controls, and ordering. Other utilities cover data and CD burning, ISO-to-DVD, DVD-to-video conversion, DVD copying, Blu-ray burning, and chapter creation. Wondershare lists Windows 10/8/7/Vista/XP and Mac OS X 10.10 or later. A free trial is available, with three templates and watermarks on several trial tools. Paid options include a yearly subscription, a perpetual license, and multi-user licenses.

Who it suits

It suits Windows or Mac users who want to author DVDs, create menus, edit video, or assemble photo slideshows. Windows users who need Blu-ray output are the ones who can use that capability.

Limits

The trial offers three menu templates; its video editor, slideshow maker, DVD-to-video converter, and DVD-to-DVD converter add a watermark, while the data disc and CD burner show ads. The 1 Year Subscription costs $39.95 a year and renews automatically; the Perpetual License costs 55.95 USD once, and the Multi-User License costs 124.95 USD once.

Getting started

1. Open the Wondershare DVD Creator website.
2. Choose Windows or macOS; the download page lists supported system versions.
3. Start with the free trial or select a paid license.
4. Install the application and use its disc, menu, editing, or slideshow tools.

Verdict

Choose Wondershare DVD Creator if you want disc authoring alongside video editing, DVD menus, and slideshow tools. Look elsewhere if Blu-ray authoring on macOS is essential, or if you want to avoid the trial's tool restrictions before paying.
