Best video format to burn to DVD that will play best in DVD player?




David


What is the best video format to burn to a dvd that will be played on a DVD player (of course). Ive been burning in AVI format and I have seen that MPEG-2 is better, is it?

AVI has not been playing too well on my dvd player, slow video playback / scratchy sound.

I burn with Roxio Mydvd and have dvd drive DVD+-RW, burning on DVD+R blanks.

When I burn I do not use the pc (no interupting resources).

I want to burn a DVD for my mother, a picture slideshow set to music, but I don't what is the correct format which plays on a regular DVD player. Would WMV play on it? If not, what format?

Please answer soon, I got 6 days till Christmas.



Answer
A regular DVD player plays files of the format .VOB.

A DVD you would buy in a shop would have files organised into two folders: AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS.

The AUDIO_TS folder is used for DVD Audio and used to contain the audio files for an movie on the disc. This is not really used any more with todays formats, but DVD's are still packed this way for clarity.

The VIDEO_TS folder contains files of the format .IFO, .VOB, and .BUP

VOB (Video Object): A VOB contains several streams multiplexed together: Video, Audio and Subtitles. It is essentially equivalent to MPEG format on a computer, but some players have difficulty playing the entire MPEG format and will skip and jump. Better to convert to .vob format.

IFO: IFO Files give the player important navigational information, like where a chapter starts, where a certain audio or subtitle stream is located, etc.
This is the reason why it's only possible to rip certain parts of a movie (like a chapter) with a ripper which can read this files.

BUP: These files are just backup files of the IFO files. As their counterparts they are not encrypted.

To create a DVD to be read on a player, you need DVD creation software to convert your .WMV, .AVI and other files you would normally play on a computer to these more accessible formats.

A good version of a DVD creator will probably cost you a few pennies, but it is worth it in the long run as you will use it often to create home movies directly with.

If you are making a movie from scratch, get a DVD creating software.

If you are converting files, get a YourformatToDVD (e.g. aviToDvd) converter.
