I want to make video DVD to be able to play presentation of photos and videos made by Windows Movie Maker and converted to DVD video files, but I want also include some photos. I have already one DVD from my teacher, which has been done this fashion - DVD player plays the presentation and if I insert the DVD in my computer and select open directory, I can find HD photos inside DVD video TS_VIDEO folder in appreciate folder grouping the photos...

 

However everytime I try to include both presentation and photos the same fashion to make ISO image (just to make sure it works as expected), ImgBurn discards the photos and include only the video. I need to make DVD boot as DVD video, but also want to include photos to maximize use of available space (the video has only 6 minutes while it's possible to have up to 2 hours of film included...

 

I know it's possible, just don't know, how to make ImgBurn accept also the photos, not only video :( Any suggestions? :(

 

I have about 300 photos in the addition to the video, but only 5 files for the DVD video play is being written in the ISO file, check out log:

Yeah, I was going to say if you put the photos in VIDEO_TS, wouldn't ImgBurn be ignoring those files for input into the job?

 

 

I don't see why you need advanced root settings.  I just create a new folder in the job and put things like DVD cover art in them without having to change any settings.

That's strange. I hid it actualy in the VIDEO_TS folder and it works just fine. DVD player plays the presentation and booting in PC asks me whetever to play the disc or open it in Windows Explorer, which will reveal the photos when going to the VIDEO_TS folder. Also that same technique used my teacher to make memoral movie with bucket of photos in addition. And it works...

 

From your advice I can figure out that it's not important where it is placed, if in root or inside of the TS folders as boot format tells exactly what format the DVD will be. Sadly I already burned it and it was last empty DVD I had. Anyway thank you for your advice, will take a care on it later :)

Yeah, only .VOB, .IFO, and .BUP files should be put in VIDEO_TS.  I've never seen anything ever in any AUDIO_TS folder so I'd say leave it alone.  :)  I don't know what would happen if you put a folder in VIDEO_TS but I wouldn't recommend it.

 

 

I thought ImgBurn ignored adding files and folders to VIDEO_TS that weren't standard DVD Video compliant, but I've never tested it to be sure.  I know some DVD ripping utilities couldn't properly handle a VIDEO_TS if it had something other VOB, IFO, and BUP files or extra folders.  DVD players and software probably wouldn't have an issue, though.

 

 

You could also just place all the photos in the root directory.  That way, you don't have to navigate to a sub folder in Windows Explorer.  That, too, is something I wouldn't recommend and just suggest you continue using a sub-folder you create in the root directory on the disc for storing photos.  However, it's something that should still work.

Later if I will need to make another photo bucket DVD, I will place the photos folder in the root. Also WMP amd VLC play the DVD well with photos in the VIDEO_TS folder, they just ingnore it. Anyway thank you for suggestions :)
