Original thread:

Hello,
I would be eternally grateful if someone could help me. I have 2 folders generated to burn a DVD DL which are LAYER 0 and LAYER 1. Inside them I have the files CONTROL.DAT, DDPID and IMAGE.DAT.
How can I extract them to generate an .iso or burn them in ImgBurn so that they run as DVDs?
Is it possible to convert .DAT to VIDEO_TS and then write as files in a Disc or mount a .iso?
Thank you.

The DDP files are what get's sent to a disc replicator as previously mentioned. They Contain the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders saved per layer to represent the physical disc.
As there are are two layers it means that your original master is a DVD 9. A DVD 5 will only have Layer0.
You can play the .dat files in VLC albeit with limited control but it is at least useful to check what is there. You will also see the DVD menus if there are any.
If you need help converting back to the original files I can help if you like. feel free to reply or message me.. Thanks.
