Hi there,

 

Long time user of DVDD to burn video DVDs, and other apps to burn data, mixed content etc. Having read the available info on the Build mode, I just want make sure I'm not missing something ....

 

With something like Roxio, you have to tell it what DVD type you want to burn, ie, you can't just copy the VIDEO_TS folder using a data-type burn, you must say that it's a video, etc. How does ImgBurn deal with this?

 

For instance, if I burn a folder of mixed content (VIDEO_TS & data) using the Build mode, will the DVD be seen as a video DVD on a set-top player and (effectively) both types on a PC?

 

This is quite important to me as I want to use ImgBurn on my work PC to burn DVDs of any type …. I’m not allowed to install Roxio and the like, but I can get away with ImgBurn :)

 

Cheers,

 

Mark

A DVD-Video disc is a data disc with a particular structure: it must have a VIDEO_TS folder at the root of the disc with the *.IFO/*.VOB files inside it, and it must have the UDF 1.02 filesystem. In other burning programs, these requirements are only enforced when you select the DVD-Video compilation/profile.

 

ImgBurn, on the other hand, recognizes DVD-Video content by the presence of VIDEO_TS.IFO/VTS_xx_nn.IFO/VTS_xx_nn.VOB files and asks/makes the appropriate changes, if any are needed.
