Burn virtual Blu-ray disc with Nero Express 8 and Phantom Burner

Create a new Blu-ray image

Start Phantom Burner

Switch to the "Operations" tab.

Click on the "Create" button.

Phantom Burner will prompt you for the location of the disc image file.

Make sure the "disc type" is set to "BD-RE".

The "Convert data disc to ISO format" option tells Phantom Burner to use ISO as data disc image format. ISO is a standard format which is supported by many software. For this tutorial, uncheck this option. Phantom Burner will create the image as its own "VDD" format.

Enter the disc image file name and click "Save".

Launch Nero Express

Install and Nero Express.

Select "Data" on the left, and "Blu-ray Data Disc" on the right.

Add Files

You will be given the Disc Content window, showing a blank list right now.

Click "Add..." button.

Browse to the files you want to burn.

Click Add to add the files to the CD layout.

Burn Blu-ray Disc

Click the "Next" button at the lower right corner.

Select "PHANTOM BURNER" as the burner on the next dialog.

Click the "Burn" button. Nero Express will start burning.

And the burning will soon complete.

Mount virtual Blu-ray data disc

As the disc is burned successfully, now we can mount the virtual disc in Windows Explorer, like a regular Blu-ray disc.

Go to Phantom Burner dialog again.

If you used a real burner, you will have to eject the disc first, then mount it. It is the same with Phantom Burner.

First, click the "Eject" button to eject the "disc".

Then click "Mount Last Image" to mount the image we juse created.

Now, when you go back to Windows Explorer, you will see the Blu-ray disc available. You can double-click to see its content.
