DVD Burning Problems?

[roggae94]

I've recently downloaded a Soulive DVD but I'm unsure what I need to do to convert the .vob files so I can burn onto a DVD-R disc. Is there some freeware that I need or any tips that someone can pass along?

Thanks in advance.

don't convert them

create an emty folder called AUDIO_TS and also add the VIDEO_TS folder, then burn. this should work in a standalone DVD player. Use Nero or whatever. Also backup the original data files and info included with the show on another disc.

I've used a ISO program along with DVD decrypter that said the same thing to use a video_ts and an audio_ts folder but when I burned the disc my player says it cannot play this type of DVD.

If I create the video_ts and audio_ts folders where do I put the files that I've downloaded? Should I create a folder that contains both of the files mentioned with the downloaded files in the video_ts folder?

This is my first DVD download and I just need a little direction.

Thanks again.

the files you downloaded should be in a folder. open that folder, inside is a VIDEO_TS folder. the stuff in this VIDEO_TS folder should go in the VIDEO_TS folder that you burn. just add the empty AUDIO_TS folder. when you burn the disc just make it with the AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS folders, no others.

the stuff in the VIDEO_TS folder is a bunch of .vob files and a couple .ifo and .bup files.

Ok, so this is what is the problem I know to make audio_ts & video_ts folders. The thing is this I am trying to burn these VOB files with NERO but what mode do I burn them in? I have the files on my harddrive , so obviously need to get em to the DVD! D o I burn the image to a disc??? I would appreciate it so much if someone could point me in the direction I need to go! Much thx!

to burn a "watchable" copy for yer DVD player:
Open Nero Burning ROM
Select DVD-Video
Drag ALL of the contents of the show's VIDEO_TS folder [.ifo, .bup, and .vob files] to the red VIDEO_TS folder in the project window.
Burn disc.

some DVD player will also play "data discs", which you would select DVD-ROM (UDF/ISO), and then drag the shows VIDEO_TS folder *and* AUDIO_TS folder to the project window.

for archiving and trading, you might wanna burn it as a data disc and include the info texts and checksums

I downloaded a dmb dvd from here and when I click disc 1 or disc 2 there is video_ts folder. Using Nero 6, do I need to burn this entire folder or just the files contained within? Im quite confused as this will be the first dvd that I burn. Sorry if this has been asked or is stupid, but I just dont want to make a coaster. THX

Yes, the Video_TS folder is the one you want to burn.

In Nero, select the watchable/playable DVD option. This should give you an Audio_TS and Video_TS folder in the image window.

Drag all the files from the downloaded Video_TS folder into the "image" Video_TS folder. The Audio_TS folder will stay empty. Burn away...

Using the same software as u

1 Open/select dvd-video
2 Drag video_TS folder into left hand box of nero
3 Follow nero wizard to burn

Only thing I have not sussed is making menus work. Just need more practice

Downloaded my first dvd, and now that it is complete, im not sure how to burn it on to dvd-r. I assume the files i downloaded needed to be converted and that i will need software to do it. Short story long, i was just wondering what i need to do to burn my dave and tim show onto dvd-r. Thanks...

do you have Nero or a similar DVD burning program?

the downloaded show does not need to be converted...they are in dvd format already [.bup, .ifo, .vob files]

I've gotten great results with Burn at Once, which is available for free at http://www.burnatonce.com

This is a long post but I tried to be as specific as possible.

I downloaded the Phish Video Montage DVD. I was able to view it on my pc (Dell, XP prof.OS) using VLC media player. I recently bought a DVD burner - NEC DVD RW ND-3540A and Nero 6 software. I burned (?burnt?) all of the files from the torrent (except the MD5 checks). I used a Verbatim 16 x DVD+R disc (review in cdfreaks.com gave this media a high rating with this burner). When I tried to watch the video on my pc using Nero Showtime, the audio worked but the video didn't - black screen. I was able to watch the video from the DVD when I opened it with VLC. The biggest problem is that when I put the disc in my DVD player (Samsung P-231) all I saw was an FBI warning followed by a title saying "TeamHood production". The disc itself wouldn't play. I kept on getting the stop logo (red circle with a line in the middle). I previously emailed Samsung and they said the player could play both DVD+R and DVD-R.
Anyone have any ideas
Thanks for your help

what kind of disc did you burn: DVD-ROM (ISO) or DVD-VIDEO?

to burn a watchable copy, choose DVD-Video as the disc type, drag *all* of the files in the show's VIDEO_TS folder [.iso, .bup, & .vob files] tot he *red VIDEO_TS folder* in the project window...then burn.

i would back up show for trading/archiving on a data disc [DVD-ROM (UDF/ISO)] and simply drag the entire show's folder to the project window and burn [including md5, infotext, etc]

Thanks. I did use the DVD video tool and also dragged over all of the files. I dragged the files over, not the whole folder, if that makes a difference.
