ok.. im completely done.. project is trancoded, shrunk, and burnt..
I have a question about the postgame...
after the burn, nero offers to save the project to the hardrive
(so i can burn later i assume if need be)
Can i delete the original video_ts folder? or does this saved project still need that folder as a reference?
Lame question , i know.. but if the project saved doesn't need the 3-4 gig folder any longer.. that would be sweet.
I could just delete the folder and test on my own,
but i dont wanna waste a disc
So basically, Does a saved completed project still need the video_ts folders on the computer?
well if i am able to burn the project later on..without the video_ts folder.. that'd be great.. for when my dvds start getting scratched up.. all i have to do is burn em again quick.. instead of this whole prcess.
Altho i suppose i could just rip em easily back off these new discs
that sounds like the information file that tells the working folder to burn and how to burn (same as last time)
you need the .nrg file, if its not there then you still need the working folder and the nrd is what you click to burn the the working folder, there is no image as such. the working folder is actually the image.
-----------------
i always save as .nrg or iso, 1 single file - (folders/files wrapped up)
by clicking your nrd it will probably load nero up and you'll see all settings for modification etc then click burn
nrg/iso just go straight to burn stage, then click go/burn
both ways very simarlar really, your way has a few files, mine has 1 file, but both do the same thing and are same size.
1 large file.. image of the disk/w directory of video_ts
While my .nrd is just a project which points to the video_ts folder on the hard drive
so i need the folder still.. well.. im gonna delete it.. no need to save it.. as the .nrg image would be similar in size as the video_ts folder anyways.
None of this would be an issue if i had a larger hard drive.. heh
