    What kind of file would you be burning to a dvd?
    you can also burn an avi or a wmv or such and then it would just be like burning an audio cd :)

    I'm assuming they are trying to burn video_ts files. And I have no help because I'm having probs burning too but I think it has to do with my drive.

    no experience with that file format, but google is your friend

    I do know DVD-shrink can handle some of those formats

    yea but if you shrink it there wont be any menus, etc. VOB files are standard dvd files.

    if your nero prog is anything like mine....

    choose "make data dvd" , and up pops a window. Locate the dvd files in the column to the right....if the files are not already inside a folder called VIDEO_TS, you make a folder called that and put all the files in there. Then you drag that folder into the second left column called "name". Once you´ve placed the VIDEO_TS folder there, you make a new empty folder inside the same column called AUDIO_TS (capital letters only)
    Then you click "burn compliation" ...

    Does that play in dvd players?

    That's interesting because I thought a data dvd just held the files - for archiving or transferring files for example. :confused:

    yeah, I was puzzeled at first too when I started using it, but I guess it´s just a case of the nero prog having misleading names on the different choises. If I burn a data dvd on my Roxio Toast, it´ll only be readable on a computer....but the ones I burn with my nero ( it´s called "nero start smart") works just fine on the dvd player.

    Using DVD Shrink keeps the menus. Unless you use the Reauthor feature.
