Toast 11 ships with a slightly revised user-interface As well as being able to burn videos to disc, they can also be uploaded to the likes of YouTube and Facebook in a few mouse clicks. When converting video, if you are using a system with an nVidia graphics card, you can take advantage of VideoBoost to help speed up[ the process of converting with the H.264 codec. Video can be quickly converted into a number of formats so they can be burned to CD or DVD, or optimised for viewing on a device such as the iPhone or iPad. Toast can be used to create your own video disc using pre-recorded footage, or by transferring recordings from a Tivo device. The interface overhaul is not a major change from previous versions of the suite, but the minor changes that have been made make all the difference to usability. From this offset, Roxio Toast does not disappoint a huge set of features means that the applications has great scope, and a neatly redesigned interface ensure that any project you are working on can be carried out entirely intuitively and clearer labelling means that there is little chance of confusion when looking at various buttons and screen elements. With basic disc burning and the option of working with image files built directly into OS X, any third party disc burning tool has to have plenty to offer in order to justify the cost. The program is a suite of tools all related to the task of burning data onto recordable discs, and includes a number of individual components that can be used to create audio discs, video discs, slideshows, data backups and much more. While this may be the case when creating the most basic of backups, Roxio Toast goes to show that there is so much more that can be achieved with the humble recordable disc. When it comes to disc burning tools, you could be forgiven for believing that there is little more to think about that simply copy files from your hard drive to a CD, DVD or Blu-Ray.
