It should.  My does.  But I have an older version.   I was not  
pleased with a recent version that [1] pasted a "Freemake"  
watermark over the recording, and [2] disabled converting the  
audio from a video file (such as a typical YT music video) to  
mp3.

Officially, I forget which ones are problematic. But if you  
DON'T see a thumbnail image from the video after loading it in  
the Freemake panel (instead, Freemake uses something that looks  
like a nebula), then you know that it will NOT transfer to DVD  
very well.  Eventually you will learn to avoid particular .MKV  
versions.

I told it was a little gem.

I can't imagine reading for the longterm on a standard  
smartphone or tablet. For one thing, the battery would deplete  
too often and the screen display would tire the eyes.  Instead,  
I have a new Kobo now. It's the Clara HD.  It was $149, but I  
got it for $125 after I qualified for a discount simply by  
inquiring about the ereader recycle program for my old ereader.
