DVD Burning Problems?

[ffooky]

Looking at that torrent, it's definitely two separate discs.

Hello,
I've posted on another thread about this and got no help. I sucessfully dled the torrent but I can't burn it with toast titanium in dvd mode. I can when I change the menu to data dvd/clicked dvd rom but I can't watch it. I've tried on multiple dvd players and my mac and it won't play. I already searched the tread about this show to no avail. It's weird, the encoding starts and 3/4th of the way through it aborts. Never happens on anything else from this site. Couple questions for you kind folks
-what software do I need to simply watch the dvd on my mac, do I just drag the video ts file into said program?
and
-is there another freeware dvd burning program that I might have better luck with?

Thanks for the input in advance, it's driving me crazy that I can't watch this "holy grail" of phish dvds.

I am attempting to burn a show using DVD Lab Pro using the same process I have many times before. But this time I get an error message that reads "Addresses in VMG IFO does not match the actual file sizes. Abort" Does anyone know how to correct this error. P.S. the torrent was Scofield, Cobham, Duke, Johnson 1976-07-06 Montreux (NTSC). Any advice would be apprciated.

I believe that VLC works on Macs: http://www.videolan.org/

VLC to watch...as far as the burning issuess, have you tried posting about it in the show's thread? are you sure the torrent finished d/ling completely?

i'll try to burn a copy and see if it does the same

thanks so much mamba. Now if I could only figure out how to burn the damn thing.

yeah, already posted in that thread. someone else said it happened to them too. I CAN burn it, but only in data dvd mode (won't play in dvd player in home theater). Won't burn for me in video mode in toast titanium

strange...mine burned fine in Video mode

try burning in data mode "DVD-ROM (UDF)" [not Mac Only or Mac & Pc]...make sure to add the VIDEO_TS folder and an AUDIO_TS folder [leave empty]...alot of standalone DVD players will play a disc burned like this, its worth a try

how do you add an audio ts folder empty? Do you just hit the "add folder" icon and leave it empty?
thanks by the way aar.oner

Yeah, leave it empty.

Here are some instructions on how to burn it *not* in Video DVD mode in Toast and have it work on DVD players (I only burn using this method because I like to add the md5s, text file, and covers onto the DVD for storing purposes).

thanks so much lynne. I was doing everything right before except hitting the "new disc" button. I guess that was causing the source error code. Works great now in my theater dvd player

That step is always the one that kills people.

Glad you got it to play.

Thanks guys!
Had installed Nero 7 a coupla weeks ago and was having the same problem. After reading ya'lls replies went poking around and found what was needed, it sure wasn't obvious.
Finally, get to experience all these wonderful shows the way the authors intended.
