mattstan Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Hi, When burning a DVD movie to disk in 'Write files/folders to disk' mode you can add a folder or more. It seems to me there are several ways to do this. Lets say on my hard disk I have a DVD movie ready to burn in the following folder: c:\DVD\Crash\ which has 2 sub dirs: c:\DVD\Crash\AUDIO_TS (empty) c:\DVD\Crash\VIDEO_TS When I add the folder(s) to burn this DVD I can add folders in 3 different ways, either: 1) Add just: c:\DVD\Crash\ 2) Add just: c:\DVD\Crash\VIDEO_TS 3) Add both: c:\DVD\Crash\AUDIO_TS and c:\DVD\Crash\VIDEO_TS Is there any difference at all in what gets burned between these 3 different folder adding possibilities? In my tests, but outputting to ISO files, they appear to burn exactly the same folders/files. So am I correct in thinking that if I choose to burn using the 2) option of selecting just the c:\DVD\Crash\VIDEO_TS folder that ImgBurn automatically knows to add an empty AUDIO_TS folder? To put it another way, is it not necessary for me to manually create an empty AUDIO_TS folder on my hard disk because if I am burning a VIDEO_TS folder ImgBurn is smart enough to know to burn an empty AUDIO_TS folder alongside it? Finally as a new user to ImgBurn who will be primarily using it to burn movie DVDs, are there any pitfalls or option settings that I should be aware of? Thanks a lot everyone, regards, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 17, 2008 Share Posted February 17, 2008 Correct, they're all the same. Yes it adds the AUDIO_TS folder automatically. The only time they'd be different is when you have other files/folders you want in the image - in which case you need to use option 1 so it picks those up.
