I have to dowload a firmware update through virtual PC, and then burn this to CD in toast, and then it must work in a commercial DVD player. What setting should I use? thanks!

ISO 9660 for a CD.

Does the site for the firmware update include any instructions about what format the update needs to be burned as? It could be that the problem is that this must be downloaded and burned on a PC. I don't know, but ISO 9660 is the basic PC format for a data CD.

who knows, it just says non playable disc, and then I tried a DVD-r and it would not read at all.  So out of ideas. it download through virtual pc. thats an idea never burned anything through virtual pc don't know how difficult that might be.  any other idea on settings out there appreciated.

You know the area called setting?
Does anyone know the definitive one to use for this?  windows file firmware

Widows discs are Joliet (which is the standard format for long file names).  Although, if the disc cant be read, I doubt any particular ISO-9660 option will make any difference.

You may need to just call the DVD manufacturer and see if they can tell you exactly what you need to make this work.  Guessing is just going to frustrate you.
