Clip Conversion: (Default is Don't convert) When this option is selected, all media files are converted into the selected format when they are stored on the CD. The original media files are not converted, only the copies stored on the data CD are converted. Select the conversion format from the drop-down menu.

Note: When media files are converted, RealOne Player uses the best comparable bit-rate so that the quality of the new files is as close as possible to that of the original files. If you wish to change the quality of the files saved on the data CD, you will have to manually convert the files before saving them. (See Converting Clips for details.)
