burning some DVD Video Files....

[ahmadka2]

I have the VIDEO_TS folder of a DVD Movie which i want to burn...i have used a DVD Burner b4 :P....gonna get one soon....but for the time being,...when i burn it to a DVD-R, do i just dump the VIDEO_TS folder on the DVD-R as it is ??? or is there some formally to complete, to make it playable as a DVD Movie in the PS2 and DVD Player ??

No youll need a program like img_tool Classic to create the Iso file for teh dvd. Then you can burn it as usuall

[ahmadka2]

i tried making an ISO of it with CDGenPS2 3.0, and put the image in a a Daemon CD drive emulator....the DVD played fine with PowerDVD....is img_tool necessary ??

well if it works then I guess not. ..................

you need to use nero burning rom. when you pick th type of disc you are burning(far left) you will choose dvd video then click new.(far right). now you will come to a screed that has a video folder highlighted go to the far left and you will see files that are on your computer go to the directory or folder that has the video files you have of the move and open the folder up. select all files and click copy to compilation and burn disc.

last time i read this post the img tool idea was here......so this is what i did....i just the computers in my uni, cuz i dont have a DVD writer at home (yet).....since the PC there in our lab that had a writer that students cud use had hardly any space in (filled with counter strike mods)...i had to dump the main image on another computer and burn the image by browsing the ISO on LAN........the second problem was that the image had some other PS2 bootable related stuff in it as well, and i didnt want this to be burnt...so here is a flowchart of what i did :P :-

My PC (not DVD Video format ISO) --(LAN)-> DVD Burner PC --> Daemon Tools (dumped the image(which is on share network) on a virtual DVD drive) --->Img tool (Browsed VIDEO_TS from the virtual drive) (Nero 7 API version with Nero 7 Demo) --->Burnt the DVD at 4x....

a pretty long process that was...the admin got comfused :P....

anyway, half way through the burning process, the burn failed ....i dont know why ??

anyway, i brought the corrupt burnt DVDR home and tried playing it....it seems that half the DVD is working, and half is not :P...

Use Nero. They'll probably give you a "lite" version of it with whatever drive you buy anyway.

Yeah...use Nero as described above...
Easy peasy, lemon squeezy...
