non play dvd revisited

[Shack_Mon]

I saw the posts from 27 April on the same subject, apparently the same issue. I've used past imgburn to make playing DVDs (can't figure out terminology for video discs or files or iso's) successfully and brainlessly. Now there seems to be a problem. I make an iso disk, of course that doesn't play in a DVD player. Imgburn says uhoh you ain't got no video_ts folder, fixee for you - yeah sure, so now I have a DVD with an audio ts folder and a video ts folder that contains the movie, but it doesn't play. And yeah, I'm using the old program that will not be named to read the disk into either an iso or file mode saving the main movie... which I can then use Imgburn to make an iso DVD (which doesn't help) or another non-playing DVD with the video ts folder containing the movie. Along the way Imgburn complains no video BUP file IFO files etc. so the easy question is just tell what effing files need to be there so I can make a DVD that will play?

I also still have a 4.0.3.8 working 321DVDcopy that will make a copy of many DVD (these too) that I can use to get the original DVD down to a single layer size, which I can then read in multiple ways that should enable to me leave OUT the DVD backup notice, but again besides the movie files (which will play indivually in windows media player 9) are required to make a DVD that will play in a run of the mill DVD player?

Welcome to the forum

 

Do you have all the .vob, .ifo, .bup etc files from your source disk ? If you are not reading off the complete collection you are bound to see errors.

 

Next can you post a copy of the ImgBurn log for us ? I am guessing that you should see on your HDD that you have all the DVD files in a VIDEO folder, you can then use ImgBurn in Build mode to turn these into an .iso file that will (assuming all the files were there to begin with and that you have either reduced the size of the files to fit a single layer disc or have Dual Layer media) then play in your standalone player.

 

Problem is from your first post there are way too many unknowns so we need to start crossing them off before we are going to get anywhere.
