How to Convert Nero Digital
Nero Digital is an MPEG-4 format specifically made for and used in Nero's software. It is useful when converting DVDs or creating special Nero Digital discs, but there is not much you can with the video clips in other software. Thankfully, Nero offers you easy ways to convert Nero Digital files and gives plenty of options for the output files as well. All of this can be done with simple steps in the Nero Vision movie editing software.
