Howdy,
I've decided to copy my library of DVD's I've built over the past 15 years to a portable hard drive so I can easily play them on a laptop or TV, back them up and share them easier...whatever. I just do NOT trust my 80 DVD's on DVD's. I want to cut out the entire Bluray player and DVD from the equation.
I am using IMGBurn and easily made ISO files for the first 40. The files are sorted by year 1 - 40 and I have the menus. Everything works great! Even when I use a TV as a monitor. I use VLC as a player...life is good.
Well, until I hit disk #41. I now get an ISO file and a side kicker MDS file. I really do not care, but the ISO file does not play. I can go back and make MP4 files but I lose the front menus. I WANT the front menus.
Yes, this is a dual layer DVD issue that is causing the problem but I think I am burning them AOK. Maybe it is a media player problem? That is the answer I want. Maybe dual layer simply cannot hold the menu screens? Blah...hope not.
Any advice is appreciated. I am officially stuck...and I have 40 DVD's to go...
Thanks,
PPH
