Correct?

Damn you're on top of this stuff!! Thanks! One last thing, I can't seem to find that guide on here about creating the dual layer project, can you link me to it?

Hi all, getting closer to doing this DL project. Adobe Encore tells me that I need to have +R DL DVDs to burn the project to. Can anyone recommend the best +R DVD (brand, media code) to burn to submit for replication?

It does, it helps a lot actually!

Hello and welcome.

I fell asleep after reading the first paragraph of that seemingly endless diatribe. Right after he said "Another very good reason for +R DL discs to be NFG is that they are NOT DVD-Video format, and as such tend to expect the layers 0 and 1 to be of equal size." The fact that layer 0 (the top layer) *MUST* contain more information than layer 1 (the lower layer) in order to be playable in a standard DVD player seems to have been overlooked by our knowledgeable friend. I honestly don't understand the need to go through all the outlined steps just to create a DVD. ImgBurn will happily preserve the layerbreak from the original or adjust it as you wish.

 

Thank you for confirming what I thought. Was I also correct in stating that I can use the Verify feature to ensure that the disc I burn is identical to the ISO that is created by my authoring software? It seems to me that if the burned disc is exactly the same as the unburned image, there should be no problems submitting it for replication.

I'm in the middle of a discussion on the Adobe Encore DVD forum about what should be used to submit an acceptable Master to a replication house. One of the more respected members of that forum says he would never in a million years submit a DL DVD even if they accept them. He says that one should use a $400 program called Gear Pro Mastering Edition to create two single layer DDP DVDs and IFOedit in this long drawn out process to create the layer break in the right spot.

 

I just wrote him a reply stating that ImgBurn has a feature where I can verify bit for bit that my ISO file matches my burned DVD.

 

In addition, I posted the link to the guide about creating a double layer ISO, or double layer DVD with ImgBurn's built in layer break calculator.

 

Here is his post about using Gear Pro and IFOedit to create these DDP discs (it's so long)

Wanting to get your input on if ImgBurn can handle all this and I can feel confident after creating a double layer disc to submit for replication and/or create these DDP DVDs (one layer on each DVD)

 

Thanks for creating such a great program!
