Burn DVDs for both MAC & PC
Posted by Paolomart on September 22, 2005 at 5:24 pmHi,
I need to create a DVD compatible on both systems.
I can compile it on PC (using DVDit Pro), and then?
Should I burn it on a Mac or I need to compile it also on Mac?
I tried to burn on PC but it won’t be read on Mac.Any suggestion?
Thanks,

The problem may well be with DVDit Pro, because I use Nero and ReelDVD on the PC, and I can play DVDs just fine on my MAC G5.

for cross-platform compatibility.
HTH,

September 24, 2005 at 4:49 pmI’m using Toast 6.05, (I think the latest version has a new Video_TS files to DVD-Video setting, or something to that effect).
The recommended way to do it in 6.05 is to use DVD-ROM (UDF), drag the Audio & Video TS folders (but take out the .lay, or any layout files, as well as any data files first, they could interfere with playback on some players), and burn at 1x.

Paolo started this thread and he’s using Nero, not Toast, just as I am. So, your settings in Toast won’t really help him. Let’s try to compare apples to apples and oranges to oranges…

September 24, 2005 at 6:06 pmYeah, I know David. Didn’t mean to confuse the issue. Nobody responded to his ISO/UDF question for a couple of days, so I tried to help specifically with the ISO/UDF answer. Glad you chimed in
with the actual Nero answer.

September 26, 2005 at 12:36 pmYes, I think actually the problem is:
do I need to burn as UDF or ISO/UDF?I tried as UDF but I had some problem on DVD players…
thanks a lot,
Paolo
