Sossity Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 I am burning back up data discs from my hard drive onto DVD-Rs of my photos & .mpg movie files from my Sony point & shoot camera. I would like to have the most universal/compatable discs, that can be read on older & newer Macs & PCs. I am using the write files from folders to disc in build mode. What should I choose from the options tab? data type, file system & UDF revision. There are also some default check boxes listed as well on the options tab, which of those should be checked? or should I just keep what the default settings have chosen for me? there is also an advanced tab, should I do anything with it? or just keep the default settings?

mmalves Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 The only thing you could do to make it a bit more compatible is to use ISO9660 + Joliet + UDF filesystems. No other changes necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I notice in the drop down list of data type there are 2 options & in the drop down for UDF revision there are some choices, which of these should I choose?

mmalves Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 On DVDs you can only burn MODE1/2048 data and UDF 1.02 is the most compatible revision, both of which are the default values for those reasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
