A DVD-ROM is normally stamped, not burnt. However, with DVD+R media, you can specify the booktype on the DVD during the burning process with some burners; if you specify a booktype of DVD-ROM, any DVD player will then think the DVD+R is in fact a DVD-ROM - be aware though that you've not really created a DVD-ROM (because DVD-ROM's are stamped), you've only fooled the player into thinking it's a DVD-ROM; all of the other characteristics are still that of +R media.

Changing the booktype isn't a function of DVDA, it depends on the ability of the burner you are using and usually requires a little utility to tell the burner to change the booktype.

Are you asking about placing content other than video and audio?

Games, PDF files for business, etc can be burned using other programs
such as NERO.

I use my burner also to keep a restore disc of my computer using
Norton Ghost.
