Encoding 1 pass CBR

[Keith Aronowitz]

Out of curiosity,
I noticed that besides the video/audio TS folders, there was other media as well, and that in total, it was more than the sum of what was on the dvd, about 7 gigs in total, so I had to put in on a 8.5 gig disc. Is this normal/standard?

Thanks Michael,
sorry, I ‘m being a little dense here, but I just want to confirm, there are 4 folders that were created with the export: Audio TS, Video TS, Layer 0, and Layer 1 (layer 1 & 0 also having media). In order to replicate a glass master, the replication house only needs to use the Audio & Video TS folders? And I’m assuming if I tell them not to just make a direct copy, they would already know this, i.e., how to construct the dvd from those 2 folders.

thanks again,

Keith

Only give the replicator your Layer 0 and Layer 1 files – these are your DDP images used to create your glass master. Best to deliver on HDD but you can give them burned discs too – check with them.

Is your project a DVD-9 or a DVD-5? What does your Meter within DVDSP say?

[Keith Aronowitz]

DVD-5. (about 4.3 gigs total) Just curious when you output to DDS2.0 as a 1 layer DVD5 do you only get one layer folder (being layer 0) That’s what happened when I output as a dvd5. Thanks.

p.s. They said my standard burned dvd5 passed inspection.

I thought you were talking about doing a DVD5, why did you have 2 layer folders as posted above, I wanted to make sure you didn’t accidentally click on the dual layer button in the disc inspector.

Glad you have a good master.

The reason I originally thought I had to do a double layer (I have double layer dvds, not dual layer) is because I thought you had to put all the folders on the dvd (i.e. Video TS, Audio TS, Layer 0 and Layer 1), which added up to more than 4.7 gigs. Then I was led to believe that you only need to put the O & 1 layer level on and not the video and audio ts folders. I was just asking for clarification for the future if you do a dvd-5 do you only get one layer – layer 0, because that is what’s coming up when I output to DDL2.0
