Aten Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 Now i kinda know that films when stored on your HD are either DVD Files or an ISO Image. Ive burnt both to TY DVD-R with no hassle. So far so good. However when i used DD to do a 1:1 but left the DVD File as the whole 8gb rather then compress, noticed that theres no Audio Folder in the TS. Just the Video Folder. example Usually when u open an original dvd in your drive, you can see the Audio (which is empty) and Video Folders Contained withing the TS. But in this case the above image seems to only have video files. As a result when i used ImgBurn to Build SS into an ISO at some point during the setup i get this message: I dont recall seeing this when i first started out using IMB but in each case ive always said yes when it prompted me. Is this the correct choice and what would be the alternative if i selected no. Representative or Visible. Whats the Difference??? 2) When u burn a DL disks with imgburn u use the mds file as it has the Laybeak Info. Whats the deal when u do the same but with the TS folder. How does Imb know where to set the LB? 3) Also (rather than start a seperate post for this question can i ask) why when i try to transfer an ISO image with its MDS file to my Ipod It simply wont let me. I restored the ipod to be sure but in both cases an 8gb ISO+MDS wont transfer from my PC. It says that theres no space left but it has 20gb of storage. When i transfer the TS Folder equivalent (identical) it zips over in no time. Look forward to a reply...
cornholio7 Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 looks like you are a little confused there, you have files on your hdd , not an iso, so an mds is meaningless for those files, imgburn is asking you are you making a dvd video disc and will make the necessary folders on the disc, if its dual layer then you will get a layerbreak window to choose which is the best. if you are burning an iso , you use the .mds file
Aten Posted February 23, 2007 Author Posted February 23, 2007 Hey Corny. I thought i was the only one awake at this ungodly hour. imgburn is asking you are you making a dvd video disc and will make the necessary folders on the disc, if its dual layer then you will get a layerbreak window to choose which is the best. if you are burning an iso , you use the .mds file that answers part of my question but what about, What would happen if i chose NO instead of yes. Any difference in playback? thanks bro.
cornholio7 Posted February 23, 2007 Posted February 23, 2007 it will just burn the files and they wont play
Aten Posted February 24, 2007 Author Posted February 24, 2007 (edited) Any ideas on.... 3) Also (rather than start a seperate post for this question can i ask) why when i try to transfer an ISO image with its MDS file to my IpodIt simply wont let me.

When i transfer the TS Folder equivalent (identical) it zips over in no time. Trying to transfer the ISo+mds to som1 elses mac. Rather the ISO then the TS folder. Edited March 8, 2007 by RushOrDie
LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 24, 2007 Posted February 24, 2007 Probably file system limitations. i.e. FAT32 won't support files > 4GB in size.
