I am trying to burn my very first DVD - I converted it from MPEG to VOB and is now sitting in my hard drive at around 2.2 gig. When I am following this information from this link: http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/burning_dvd_with_nero.cfm I dont have any .ifo or .BUP files in my TS_Video folder. Where can I get these and how do I apply them in my Nero6 Thank-you for taking the time to read this thread - even if you don't reply. Jamie
Dear Herrlip/Jamie, There are actually many ways to burn to DVD. With Nero, most of the time you can actually burn directly from mpegs or VOBs: At Nero StartSmart, clik 'DVD', then 'Make your own DVD video', then 'add video files', then select the mpegs or vobs. You may take a peep under 'all supported video files' to see what kind of files are supported by Nero. Anyway, then click 'next' and follow the lead. Try to do some experimentation yourself with a RW. Good luck!
Nah - when I add the VOB file into the Video folder - I am getting a pop up box saying internal error - then I get "Nero has caused an error in KERNEL32.DLL Nero will now close If you continue to experience problems, try restarting your computer. I ve tried re-booting several times and still get the same error. Can anyone answer the question that I asked in the first place? As I am sure the error has something to do with that Thanks for your help anyway
Just before I get to the point of burning - I get this: Required file 'VIDEO_TS.IFO' is not present 'VIDEO_TS.BUP'is not present DVD-Video files compliance test failed Then the pop up box DVD-Video files compliance test failed. The resulting DVD-Video might be unplayable. Do you want to continue? I feel this is very important to have these files Any Idea's?
I've never seen a VOB larger than 1GB. If the movie is longer than that, multiple VOB files are created. So if you have 2.2GB VOB file, that's odd, and could be the problem. What Nero application are you using? Were I you, I would be using NeroVision Express. I'd add the [bold]original[/b] mpeg file to the project. It may be okay if that file is larger than 1GB -- though I'm not sure about that. NeroVision Express will transcode all the files in your project into the necessary format and size for a dvd, including the IFO and BUP files.
