Elwood P Dowd's Journal: Does anyone know a handy way to mix DVD video and data?

I'd like to make a DVD that will play in ordinary DVD players. I'd like it to also have high-resolution photographs that people can access w/ a computer. I know that it's possible to do, because I've seen DVDs that work in DVD players but have DVD-ROM data as well.

Can I do it with my freebie NeroVision Express 2 SE on Winders? Any bright ideas?

On Windows?

I think that sort of thing is only possible on macs.

I'm just kidding.

Honestly I don't know.

Sorry for wasting your time.

I'm going to stop now.

No, really. I am.

A Movie DVD is nothing more than a data DVD with the correctly encoded files in the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS folders on it. You can create any number of other files and folders on it without disrupting the video function.

Best way would be to burn it to an ISO image, then add the files you want to the ISO image.

Oi.

Any good idea for how to add files to this image file I've got sitting here?

On Mac or Unix you can just mount it. On Windows, I believe Winimage can do it.
