This completedness thing also means that you have to add the ROM contents (aka "3rd" folders) separately (usually) AFTER the authoring but before the creation of the ISO so it can be included in the ISO's creation (which you'll have to explicitly design in, unless your authoring app again has a feature for its inclusion). There are differences in that analogy, however (sector ordering, especially). Think of the ISO as a non-compressed version of a ZIP file (which itself can contain the same VIDEO_TS structured files). The thing about the ISO file: it is already a completed thing, so you can't ADD/SUBTRACT to it without first extracting the contents. If you didn't create the menus, etc in the authoring, it won't be there in the ISO file either. If your original authoring included a menu, etc and it was generated in the appropriate VIDEO_TS IFO/VOB structure, it will still be there on disc and still be there in the ISO. Thanks guys, I really appreciate your feedback and ideas.Īn ISO is just a "disc image" or byte-for-byte transcription of what would be burned to a disc (had you done so) but saved to a file (for later burning).Īn ISO has whatever you have provided it when creating it. Hopefully I'm not asking really dumb questions, but as you can tell I have some experimenting to do tonight. I'm planning on looking into Imgburn tonight after I get home, I'm eager to see what options I have with it. I want it to play like a normal DVD would in a DVD player with a menu and options, but have files accessible through a computer. Please let me clarify, I'm not wanting to access the files through a DVD player, in the DVD menu. (As you can tell I've never tried to do anything this custom on a DVD, so I've never looked at any other software). I agree that Wondershare deliberately makes this murky, but that's why I'm interested in other authoring software that may have these options. iso is just the videos, will the VIDEO_TS folder and the AUDIO_TS folder that I burn onto the DVD with the files still play with a menu and options in a DVD player, and how do I access them without burning the DVD? (wondershare will only allow you to save these files onto your hard drive once its been burned onto a dvd.) iso file just the videos without any options or menu? If an. iso will still have all the menus and options then my problem is solved, but isn't an. iso file through wondershare onto my hardrive, will it still have the DVD menu, or will it just be the videos? Any ideas how I can check? If the. The question that I'm asking is if I burn an. I may be really new to all of this, but I realize the difference between authoring software, and software that simply burns a DVD. Imgburn is the best burning software available. This material, of course, will not be accessible through the DVD menus, but it can be read by a computer from the DVD disc. Once wondeshare creates your authored file structure to a DVD folder on your hard drive, you can manually add another folder at the same level as the video_ts and audio_ts folders which contains your slideshows photos and other data. Burning is simply copying the structured folders to a physical disc. Consumer oriented software like wondershare deliberately makes this murky in the hopes of keeping things simple, but you're trying to do something more sophisticated.Ĭreating menus and links and an appropriate file structure are all authoring functions. WIRM, you seem to be conflating burning and authoring.
