Burn a dvd in the dvd vr format help how to??

[Halfhuman 2004]

Does anyone know how to burn in the new dvdrvr format.
I want to burn in this format ,so that my dvd recorder(+harddisc) can read the dvd i recorded on my pc.
I have home made movies in the normal Dvdr+ format ,but my recorder reads only dvdrvr if i want to change something to my dvd.

The vr is a new standard so that you can change things recorded on a dvdr+

Normal you get a VIDEO_TS map and a AUDIO_TS map
But i want the new format VIDEO_TS and a VIDEO_RM map.

In the VIDEO_RM map are 3 files stored video_rm video_rm.bup and video_rm.ifo.

The video _ts is the same as any normal dvd .

In the video_rm is extra info stored.

So for example i want to rip a dvd to my harddisc and burn it back to dvd in the dvdr vr format.

Thanks for the help in advanced

2 things

1) what standalone are you using?

2) it should read regular DVDs in any case.


Why bother trying to create a DVD -VR on a PC when you can make a DVD+-R? I've got both a standalone (Pioneer DVR-220) and an IDE DVD-RW and authored disks play fine on the standalone.

I don't know much about the VR specs, or of any utilities for VR. I'm curious though, have you tried simply renaming the VIDEO_RM to VIDEO_TS?

I have a philips recorder(harddisc and dvd in one)
Yes try to rename it didnot help

I have made a copy on my pc from an audio dvd (format R+ or r- doesnt matter.)

I want to copy it to my harddisc on my recorder.
But the recorder only reads the new format.

So thats why i have to change it to dvd vr

I dug this up on the net.


It is good to know that it's perfectly well possible to make a duplicate of a DVD+R disc on a DVD+RW disc using a DVD+RW PC drive and some copy tool. Since the original DVD+R disc was also made according to the +VR format, you can now perform all of the special features on the DVD+RW duplicate, such as making the chapter stops compatible, or partially overwrite recordings.


[/URL] A disc recorded in the DVD+VR format will be 100% compatible with the DVD-Video specification on a logical basis. That is, the locations of video and menu files will be according to this standard, and also the format and naming of the files will be exactly the same as on a pre-recorded DVD-Video disc. Recorded programs will be stored in the VIDEO_TS directory using the normal .VOB-file format. All standard DVD-Video playback software and editing or ripping utilities on a PC can be used with DVD+RW recordings.


This is different from the VR format as employed by DVD-RW recorders, which is completely different from the DVD-Video specification and hence such a disc cannot be played on a normal DVD player.



Are you using DVD-VR or DVD+VR?

I am using a DVD+VR recorder.

I give the example what i know can do

Dvd+vr(from recorder philips) copy to pc harddisc = ok
Dvd+r (from pc) copy to pc harddisc = ok
Dvd+vr (from pc) copy to harddisc recorder philips = ok

Dvd+r (from pc) copy to harddisc recorder philips = NOT OKE
Dvd-r (from pc) copy to harddisc recorder philips = NOT OKE
On a liteon harddisc recorder its oke (made in same faktory different firmware)

So how do i get the last 2 to oke
I want to burn a Dvdr+ into DvdR+VR

Your solution is Nero Vision Express 3.
Create a DVD-Video +VR Projekt and import your DVD. Nero creates the VIDEO_RM folder.
On Tab Video Options enable SmartEncoding. So you can edit and it encodes only new parts.

And the best: Nero works with AC-3 tracks! Any other programs like Cyberlink's Power Producer 3 decode(!) AC-3 to WAV and are very slow.

I have nero ve 3 .
So far no luck
Smart encoding shall try it today.
Hope that it works
