Re: XP support

Huge problem with XP is that there is so many new codecs and formats that require newer OS. Real bully here is Microsoft, they forced changes to OS code that prevents applications from working in XP and Win10. Of course some developers make their applications compatible with any OS but that requires...

Re: Dual layer video length

There is no exact amount on how much can be put on one DVD.
Some movies take much less bits and still produce very good quality while some use huge amount. Total playing time and best quality is still an estimate.
Only one who can say about quality being good is you, check converted result.

Re: Conversion problem

Just use 1pass with best quality. Most likely you will not notice the difference.

Re: Nero Platinum Suite 2020

Should be just fine.
If not, then Nero programmers are making a mess.
Personally that is bloatware and I stay away from their products.

Re: Conversion Problem Line Of Duty S1

Original BR and DVD discs are copy protected.
You can't convert them without removing copy protection.
Removing it is prohibited in EU so it requires separate software.

Re: Fastest DVD conversion software?

Converting to DVD is slow process.
The specifications of your source files; screen size, amount of audio channels etc, can make a huge difference on conversion speed.
You are getting actually quite good results using a laptop!

Re: New ISO images not being created

That explains it.
Easiest way to solve is to rename ISO after creation. Most likely on burned disc might still be wrong one but hey.. things happen!

Re: Log shows critical info

Most likely this is encoder issue, some release groups are modifying encoders slightly.
In most cases files encoded that way play fine on computer but do not convert. Usually those files have problems playing over network too.
This issue is fixed when info about those encoding details are updated.

Combine those; 3 episodes to one title, each episode will be a chapter in title. You end up with 36 titles.

Re: Bit Rate Understanding

There has been multiple discussions and arguments about this issue.
Developer has explained several times about this.

In short: VSO uses encoding that produces best picture with minimal space usage.
Forget about bitrates and check encoded result - is there quality loss?

Re: 4K blu ray external drive for PC

Resolution of video has nothing to with drive, drive just burns / loads a file and system plays it.
So any BR burner can burn UHD files.

What are you using to play? Windows does not have DVD player as default anymore. If you try to play it on computer then you need software that supports playing DVD.

Re: slow to boot / start / load

Yes, it is odd. Only two reasons for that kind of delay that come to my mind: (applies to any program) 1 - Program has left traces of itself in memory and starting it again needs to clear those first, taking more time than after cold boot. 2 - temp space is filling up and that slows system. But then...

Re: After Burn Getting Separate Audio and Video TS Files

Nothing wrong.

DVD must have Audio_TS and Video_TS folders to be standard. Video files are inside Video_TS where player can find them.
If you make DVD audio-only disc then all files are in Audio_TS and nothing inside Video_TS.
