Re: [ARSCLIST] F1 difficulties
I was addressing the other Mike who asked the question. My JVC records DVD's that seem to work on
any other machine where they've been played.

Why can't you make a master DVD transfer and then just copy it in the computer using Roxio or any
other disc copier. I think as long as you don't include some copy protection scheme, the disc
will mount and copy just fine.

As I said, standalone recorders have a nasty habit of being not quite compliant with the standard.
Different devices - DVD-ROM applications and set-top boxes - are differently sensitive to that and
may refuse to read, read incorrectly or read the wrong track. Fortunately, DVDShrink is quite
tolerant of TOC faults and builds a new one as needed.
As far as I can determine, the Panasonic recorder is compliant, but for safety's sake, I use
DVDShrink which I know makes a good directory. In effect, that creates the master. I may then copy
it in the computer or the standalone duplicator or if I know more copies will be needed, I usually
use the files left by DVDShrink to make the additional copies (two at a time with Nero).
