wiltshiretom Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Hi, I am trying to setup batch creation of VOB folders to ISO files. I seem to be making progress but keep coming up against the "Layer break position" window popping up which requires user intervention to proceed. I understand the implication of this that it is best for the user to choose where the break is to fall but would like to find some way round it as currently I cannot leave my script running unattended. Ultimately I will be streaming there ISO files to a UPnP player and probably won't ever be burning them to actual discs. I found this thread that describes making imgburn think it is burning a large single layer DVD rather than dual layer DVD so there is no requirement for choosing the layer break point but I don't understand and can't find how to choose the setting ("Select 'Custom' for the single layer bit and enter a large number for 'maximum sectors' (perhaps copy it from the dl disc). ") http://forum.imgburn.com/index.php?showtopic=13338 This is the script I am current ly using in the batch file: for /F "usebackq delims=;" %%I in (file_list.txt) do "C:\Program Files\ImgBurn\ImgBurn.exe" /MODE BUILD /BUILDMODE IMAGEFILE /SRC "%%I\" /DEST "F:\ISO\%%I.iso" /FILESYSTEM "ISO9660 + UDF" /UDFREVISION "1.02" /VOLUMELABEL "%%I" /rootfolder yes /start /close /noimagedetails My questions are: 1) What is the best approach for automating this process without needing user intervention? 2) do the settings in my script look OK or does anyone have any suggested improvements?

LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Go into Build mode, make sure 'Image File' output mode is selected. On the 'Advanced' tab you'll find a sub tab called 'Media'. That's where you make the adjustment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiltshiretom Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 Thanks for the tip! Out of interest what are the implications of creating ISO files like this if I at some point would want to burn to a DL DVD? Presumably it wouldn't work. How would I go about re-authoring the ISO to suit a DL DVD? Great software BTW Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cynthia Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 The day you want to burn them do discs, then just mount the ISO and do a new build were you set the layer break position as desired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
