    HI, I hope that I am posting iin the correct forum. I also hope this question was not answered previously. I tried to search but could find nothing that answered the question..as I could see anyway. I read the instructions and thought I was making progress. I got the info to at least read and copy to my computer. I thought all I had to do was place the empty dvd in the tray and tell it to copy. The instructions said that there may be more than one file with the name of the title that I just copied..so I checked (looked at the files). There were 2 of them. THe directions said to select the one that ended in .dvd but none end in .dvd One ends in .ISO and one in .MDS Can someone help me and tell me which one I select to tell it to write to tedisc and why it did not end in .DVD ,like the instructions said it would. Will it make a DVD that I will be able to view? Thanks ..and again..I apologize if Ive put this in the wrong place. I do appreciate any advice that anyone can give me.

    Burn the .mds file, that's what it makes when you use the FAT/FAT32 file system.

    No problem. You're actually better of burning at 1x, it helps reduce the chance of errors.

    Good luck.
