Toast DVDs made on Mac will not play on PC or DVD player

[bjgbjk]

Hello,

 

I have a Video_TS file that I need to burn onto DVDs that can be played on Mac, PC, or a DVD player. I have the copyright to the file. I just bought Toast 10 to do this. I installed the latest Toast 10 upgrade. I burned a disk that plays fine on my two Macs, but it will not play on either my PC (which is running Windows Vista) or my regular DVD player.

 

The Mac I am using to burn the CD is running the latest version of Snow Leopard (10.6.2).

 

I am using Verbatim, Digital Movie DVD–R (4.7 GB/ 8x) blank disks.

 

Does anyone know why my burned disk is only compatible with Mac and nothing else? I need to submit this disk to people who may not have Mac computers, so compatibility is essential.

 

Thanks so much for your help.

I've read a couple recent posts about play back compatibility issues with the latest Toast updates. I suggest re-installing (copying from a Time Machine backup perhaps) Toast 10.0.2 or earlier and burning from it. Use the latest version to save as disc image and use the earlier version to burn the disc image in the Copy window.

 

You might also try choosing DVD-Rom (UDF) in the Data window to burn your VIDEO_TS folder to see if that fixes the compatibility issue.

 

I'd love for you to do some experimenting because I'd like to know what is working and what isn't. Be sure to give feedback to Roxio. There's a link in Toast Help.

 

 

Thanks very much for the suggestion to use Toast 10.0.2. I was using 10.0.4 and could not include data files on the disc using the DVD-ROM (UDF) feature. I installed 10.0.2 and can do it now. Hello... Roxio? Can you fix this please? Thanks very much! (I now have both versions of Toast in my Toast Titanium folder inside my Applications folder.)

Hi there, I hope you can help me. I want to be able to burn the contents of my IWEB created page with Leopard 10.5.8. into a cdrom and make the cdrom work as well as it works with mac computers in PCs. Do you think I can do it with the Titanium 10. I will appreciate very much any information.

 

Best Regards
