[It is NOT recommended to use DVD-R DL Discs for Video.]

Thank you very much, these reasons are very well understandable. So, I won't ask further and use DVD+R DL with booktype set to DVD-ROM to be on the safe side. And will use ImgBurn of course

 

Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot for your fast answer - and for your fantastic software!

[Sectors (media type) and file system for CD-iso's?]

Hi there,

 

did not found the answer in guides, faq and after searching. Probably I am blind:

 

 

When creating an CD-ISO with ImgBurn, what media type do I choose? CD-ROM is not listed, so I choose "Custom" - but how many sectors does a normal 700MB CD-ROM have?

 

What file system I should choose for normal data CD-ROMs? In the guides for DVD-Video "ISO9660+UDF" is recommended. Is "ISO9660+Joliet" fine for CD-ROMs?

 

Thanks for your answers,

Pyro

Ok, this is an argument

So it's not a matter of compatibility with standalone players?! IF they would burn fine, then everything would be ok with DVD-R DL.

But I was confused because of the end of the sentence "for Video.". I would have expected "DVD-R DL are garbage in all means" or so...

 

Thanks for your input!

I forgot the most important: I just found ImgBurn at weekend, used Copy2DVD till now, and must say: wonderful prog!

Hi there,

 

I know, this is not a DVD-authoring or a general DVD maker forum but I found this sentence in the guide of cornholio7 -> Creating a double layer ISO on your hard drive using ImgBurn

 

It is NOT recommended to use DVD-R DL Discs for Video.

 

Why not, please? Because it cannot be set to booktype DVD-ROM or what else? I have no clue and just want to clearify here. I favorite DVD-R for all my selfmade videos, I always used Ritek G04 4x or TY 8x only. I need most compatible DVD video disks and the question is now: why not DVD-R DL

 

Thanks a lot,

yours
