Video_ts Audio_ts question

This may sound like a silly question, but I am very confused.....
I understand my DVDA2 will not properly burn with my pioneer 109 burner. So I want to use a different program to burn, but yet use DVDA's great menu and "fit to disc" abilities. How do you get the "Prepared" only file that creates in the audio and video_ts folders to burn with another program. Those folders have all kinds of created folders/icons etc. It seems like I am looking for an MPEG to drag into a different burning software, but nothing seems to open, or I'm not going through the correct process.
I can find the files I created under "Prepare Only" under local settings/temp/my DVD... but where from there???
Thank you for someones help..... Dukerss

PS I sure wich my DVDA2 would just burn it itself

You've already found them. The VIDEO_TS directory you are finding is the prepared video. Inside you should see a collection of VOB files with a few BUP and IFO files. If you're using Nero to burn the DVD, select "DVD Video" which will create a project with AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS folders, then drag the files from the VIDEO_TS folder on your hard drive into the VIDEO_TS folder in Nero. The AUDIO_TS folder is empty.

If it makes it any easier for you, when you prepare in DVDA you may specify a directory of your own choosing instead of the default local settings/temp/my DVD directory.

Just use Nero. Create a "DVD Video" project and then drag all the files from the VIDEO_TS folder that DVDA prepared into the VIDEO_TS folder in Nero. There's nothing in the AUDIO_TS folder, so you can ignore it).

Even easier, using Nero, create a DVD Video project, and drag the VIDEO_TS folder to the Nero pane containing the VIDEO-TS folder, the individual files in the folder will be transferred that way.
