Making a DVD without DVDA?

Steve672 wrote on 5/9/2003, 2:47 PM

If I already made a DVD disc with DVDA can I just burn another one without having to go thorough the Prepare DVD step. i.e. if my project is already saved and Prepared then how can I just burn it again the second time without going through the Prepataion phase?

Can I use Nero and copy the Video_TS folder to a new DVD?
Also, on my DVD disc under the Audio_TS folder there are no files, is this OK? I do have audio with my project.

Yes, you can use Nero.

However, you can also use DVDA - instead of "Prepare and Burn", just choose "Burn" and you can use the previously created folders.

Thanks jetdv.

Would you be able to shed some light as to why I don't have any files under the Audio_TS folder? As I have mentioned before, I do have audio with my project.

That is normal. That folder SHOULD be empty but is needed to exist for compatibility purposes. It is not there to hold the audio of your video (even though that sounds logical).

Am I correct in thinking that the AUDIO_TS folder is intended for DVD Audio discs (ie high quality music discs like supercharged CDs), as opposed to DVD Video discs that of course contain audio as part of the video?
