I am trying to burn some DVD?s (for my own private
use, of course). I have used DVD Backup and saved
the DVD to my harddisk. I can play back the copy, no
problem.

I then burnt a copy with Toast Titanium. When I try to
play back the burnt DVD on my iMac Superdrive
(MAC OS 10.2.3/ Apple DVD 3.2) I get the message :
?System error,could not detect a valid media file?.

Comparing the extracted Video_TS with the burnt
Video_TS, I noticed that 12 out of the 22 files were
each 2 K smaller on the burnt Video_TS than on the
original extracted one.

Trying to play the DVD on my Toshiba DVD-player
gives a ?Disk-Error? message. According to the
manual it is capable of playing DVD-R?s

Surprisingly the burnt disk DOES play on my old
purple iMac (OS 9.2/ Apple DVD 2.7) with no
problems.

Where am I going wrong ? Any tips will be greatly
appreciated.

Nick

Sounds like your doing everything right. I always create a folder, name it what ever the movie is and place the Video_TS folder in it. Then I drag that folder to Toast and burn.

The first couple times I tried this, I had used generic data DVD's. None of my players could read the video. When I changed to media capable of video and data, it worked fine.

Thanks mate, that did the trick!!using a pioneer blank DVD and creating the extra folder fixed it. Thanks
