VS10+ can't seem to burn disk from saved image

[Greg Meekings]

I created a .iso image with VS10+ and then tried using Nero to burn this image to disc. The image size is 700mb. Using a DVD-R Nero gives an error message saying 'can't write your compilation to this type of disc'. It seems to want a CD-RW disc. When I insert a 650mb one, it says it won't fit install an 800mb disc.

So is the problem with Nero refusing to write a <800mb image to a DVD-R, or does VS somehow create a file for only the CD-RW format (if the movie would fit on one)?

I did try burning straight to DVD from VS (on a DVD-R) and it worked. However there didn't appear to be any control over the write speed (it used 6.4X).

What were your project settings in VS10? It seems that you have created SVCD/VCD file. These types of files can only be burned to CD-R disks.

DVD standard has a minimum of 1 GB file size for compatibility reasons also. In MSP there is an option to click where a minimum of 1 GB will be burned for exactly this reason.

This is an issue with Nero thinking images less than ~900mb should be burned to CD-R/RW.

I'll check my settings, (I thought they were 4.7gb DVD), however it seems that George reckons there is a Nero feature, so I'll also try with a larger file.

Thanks.

Hi

You should be able to use Uleads Disc Image Recorder to burn your Iso files

Start-All Programs-Ulead video studio¡Xvcd-dvd disc image recorder

Are the files still to large???

Ps watch out for the 4.7gb / 4.3Gb trap.
