Then, I downloaded a free converter to transfer the VOB files to DV files and imported them into iMovie '08. Since they are pieced together, I don't think this will work as a typical dvd once I burn it so that why I'm posting a question here for you experts.
The IFO files - that makes the title menu work correct?
VOB files - do I need to merge them into one file for the menu to work?
Right now, I only have the VOB.DV files in sequence in iMovie '08. What needs to happen in order for me to burn and be able to watch on a normal dvd player?
Thank you again for this - unbelievable footage.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
When you finished the DL you should have a folder titled "Tony Williams Solos Compilation DVD" Inside of that folder should be several pics, an MD5 and a txt file as well as the VIDEO_TS folder. The entire VIDEO_TS folder should be burned onto a blank DVD and watched in any standard DVD player without problem and that will give you the full dvd architecture. If you are using Apple I would recommend Titanium Toast as your DVD burning software. I think you are using Apple because you mentioned iMovie. iMovie is definitely NOT anything to be used inside of this process. There is no need to convert to DV files. At no time do you need to mess with the contents of the VIDEO_TS folder individualy. That will only mess up the DVD architecture.
On PC I have no idea, but the concept of burning the VIDEO_TS folder to a blank DVD is the same regardless of platform.
Hope that helps.
here is a screen cap of Titanium Toast getting ready to burn the entire, unaltered, VIDEO_TS folder:
