Having looked at that first liked thread, plus the Creator 9 User Guide, I still decided to take a chance and start this thread. I'd guess that after I bang out one simple DVD with lot's of help ('training wheels', so to speak), I'll have the requisit patience and curiosity to truly delve into the guides.
I am in possession of all the files on a DVD of a concert performance. I'm told it's chaptered, and there are credits and cover art (both jpg) in addition to the video files (VOB, IFO, and BUP). Just getting to this point has been somewhat exhausting, as it required me to gain membership to a torrent site (not easy), procure a torrent client app and learn how to use it, then 'leech' the torrent, which took 2-3 days (it's about 4GB). Since I really only wanted audio, burning the DVD is almost a superfluous step, but, of course, I am curious.
The folder of files includes the following:
The credits jpg
The cover art jpg
a txt file with liner notes
Thumbs.db
a file called VIDEO_TS.md5
a folder called VIDEO_TS, which holds:
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VIDEO_TS.IFO
VIDEO_TS.VOB
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_0.IFO
VTS_01_0.VOB
VTS_01_1.VOB
VTS_01_2.VOB
VTS_01_3.VOB
VTS_01_4.VOB
What I did, so far, was open My DVD 9, click Add New Movie, then added all the files from the VIDEO_TS folder, above. A dialog box opened that says "Import Movies from VOB" and asks me to select the movies I want to import; there's only one in there, Movie 1, at 01:50:50, which seems about right as the length of the concert. Once I add it, it shows up in the project view as VIDEO_TS. I burned that to disc, and it has no chapters, i.e. it all one track. Also, the image in the large Preview screen is an out of focus forest picture. When I play the DVD, the forest picture is in focus, but there are two of them, side by side.
Obviously, this is the default menu image, which I didn't change, but why 2 side by side? Given the contents of the VIDE_TS folder, above, is there a simple answer as to what I need to add/import to have this project resemble the DVD it comes from?
