In the help documentation for Ulead Video Studio (I have 10+) it states under Share, Share Steps Option Panel that in the program under Share, Export to Mobile device you can get to the DVD-VR wizard to write to DVD-RAM disks. This choice is apparently non-existent. Is there another U-Lead product that has this option to write DVD-RAM?
The main reason I want to use DVD-RAM is for review on a Panasonic DMR-EH50. I realize I could use DVD+RW instead.
Output to DVD-RAM

I couldn't find it either using VS10+
MovieFactory 6+ is designed to work with the dvd recorders.
To write dvd-ram in -VR mode to a dvd-ram disk you use the program
DVDVR.EXE.
It's the Ulead Disk Recorder 2.3 Module
Dvd-Ram uses UDF mode 2 or 2.01 for these dvd recorders and uses playlists instead of chapters. You do need to format the dvd-ram disk in the dvd recorder or on the computer (in the dvdvr module) before you can write to it.
Might be easier for you in VS to just use a DVD-RW dvd and write it in standard DVD-VIDEO model. Then you can re-use again.

DVD-VR is at the very end of the authoring stage.

Steve,
On my VS10+ there are 3 options in the burning module.
-VR isn't listed. I do have a dvd-ram disk in the selected drive that was created by MF6+.
+VR is listed which would be a DVD+RW dvd.
It IS listed in your graphical post about VS11 release.
-VR mode is dvd-rw or dvd-ram disks written in the UDF 2.0 or 2.01 format. Using this format files larger > then 2 gigs can be written to the dvd.
On my dvd recorders all the separate recordings end up in one large file about 4.2 gigs in size if I fill the dvd up to capacity.

The disadvantage is that if you write it in DVD-Video mode, the DVD-RAM disk cannot be viewed by my consumer Panasonic DVD-Recorder (nor does DVD+VR work). It is viewable on the computer that way. I think I will wait to upgrade to video studio 11 with DVD-VR support.etech6355 wrote: Might be easier for you in VS to just use a DVD-RW dvd and write it in standard DVD-VIDEO model.

So I wonder how DVD-RAM export got into the Video Studio 10 doc? Good intentions, but didn't meet the schedule!
I don't know if you meant to say DVD-RW disk instead of DVD-RAM. You can't write a dvd-ram disk as dvd-video. You could burn VIDEO_TS folders to a dvd-ram in data mode, but this will not work anyway. The burning program will report incompatible format if it trys to burn a dvd-ram disk as DVD-VIDEO. I use DVD-RW disks written in DVD-Video Mode burning on the computer and play them on the panasonic dvd recorder. They are the same as writing a dvd-r disk except re-writable. But, depending on the make of dvd-rw disk your using the panasonic recorder may not be compatilbe with them.The disadvantage is that if you write it in DVD-Video mode, the DVD-RAM disk cannot be viewed by my consumer Panasonic DVD-Recorder (nor does DVD+VR work
It's never easy. Always a snag somewhere's with all this new technology.

Just confused there. I use DVD+RW to review stuff. I just can't do anything with it on the Pan. Consumer DVD-Recorder in that format, but it will play, and it can be re-written on the PC. DVD-Ram would seem to be more convenient for review if the edits (in case there are more), if it were possible.etech6355 wrote: I don't know if you meant to say DVD-RW disk instead of DVD-RAM.
OK, a dvd-rw would be read only also, not what you want.
To suit your needs I would try the trial version of MF6.
If you want to edit/add any videos that were written from the computer it gets a little confusing because of the different mpeg encoders and the UDF version(s) format.
To do what you want you would have to first format the dvd-ram in the panasonic recorder so the ramdisk is written in the proper UDF mode that the panasonic can edit. Then use MF6 edit disk feature to edit/add video.
If you have a packet writer installed such as Nero InCD can conflict when ejecting the dvd-ram disk because it will update the ramdisks entries to it's format. This makes the ramdisk unreadable on the recorder. Ulead Data-Add2 packet writer is compatible with the dvd recorders.
If using either VS11 or MF6 first format the ramdisk in the dvd recorder, I think it's UDF 2.0 or UDF 2.01. Then don't re-format it in VS11 when burning. You will have to experiment with the UDF 2.0 or 2.01 to see which format is compatible for editing on the panasonic unit. I have to format them first on the recorder in order to be able to edit them again on the recorder, and when burning you have to retain the same editable mpeg2 format the pan's use such as 704x480/576 framesize along with the -VR option in the ulead encoder.
