Hello NLUGgers, I recently converted a VHS tape to dvd using my MythTV box. I connected a VCR to the input of the Mythbox and recorded it. Then used DeVeDe to make a video DVD out of it. Tested the disk on my laptop (Kubuntu) and a standalone DVD player without any trouble. Later, I found out that this disk doesn't work on any Windows computers. After I stopped pulling my hair out (are we living in the 90's again?), I started searching Google.
It looks like I burned the disk as a UDF file system instead of just ISO9660. Looking around, I haven't found an option to convert the iso file. Also, I haven't found anywhere to configure what type of iso is created when I make the DVD in the first place. I've been working with DeVeDe, K3b, and AcidRip, but nothing has jumped out at me. I can read the file system in Linux, so I have access to the file structure. Would it be easier to just create a new iso of the files? I'm not sure of the best way to go about that. I know how to use dd to mount a .iso file, but I'm pretty sure that's read-only. Have you run into this before? Is there a way to directly convert the iso file, or just rip the UDF disk to an Windows-friendly format? Outside of that, I still have .avi that I made from the original video. Is there a better program that I should be using to convert media files to video DVD? Thanks. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "NLUG" group.
