What is Reddit's opinion of Burn?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

Video CD? Really? What year is this?! =)

For what it's worth, I think Burn will author VCD. It's not been updated in quite some time, but I think still works on modern systems.

I don't think that the second one is possible. You can only add a non-steam game to steam for the computer it's on, I think.

The first one is actually very possible, and it's a great idea. Can't believe it didn't occur to me, it's actually how this is supposed to be done.

What you need to do is rip all of the discs as .iso files, then put them on the flash drive, then run the .iso files on your mac. Apparently .cdr files work on Mac too, so if the program I linked makes those (assuming the computer with the burner is a Mac) then that's cool too. I think.

Note that I have almost no experience with Macs. This is what I found by googling. I'm pretty sure it's correct, but if it's not, my bad yo.

For ripping, you'll need a special program. Some computers come with them, otherwise download Imgburn onto the computer with the disc drive if it's a Windows computer. If it's a mac, you can try using Burn instead.

Then once the flash drive is in your mac, follow these instructions.

How did you burn it? If you just burnt the image to a disc through the Finder then it won't work. You need to use Disk Utility or something similar. The best program I've used for burning images is Burn. Under the "Copy" tab, drag the disk image onto the Burn window and click the "Burn" button. It's always worked for me, Linux disk images included.

If you just want a plain DVD-Video with no menus, you can use Burn, which is like Toast, except free.

I use Burn for audio, but I'm pretty sure it will easily copy DVDs. Great little program does all I need.

Edit:

"1 + 1 makes 2.

Allready have discs you like to reproduce. Don't worry, Burn can help you. Burn can copy discs or use disk images to recreate your discs. With one drive Burn still will be able to copy a disc, by temporary saving the disc."

If you have Adobe Creative Suite you can use Encore.

Edit: Also, if it's a realy simple DVD that doesn't need chapters or anything then the app Burn might be for you. It's fast and very basic, but it works.

I have been using this for years with no issues;

BURN for burner DVD http://burn-osx.sourceforge.net/Pages/English/home.html

VidConvert for converting/authoring for DVD http://www.reggieashworth.com/vidconvert

1.) Everyone here is gonna say buy it, but I personally couldn't remember the last time I paid for Windows. www.thepiratebay.mn then use the Program Burn to burn it to a 4.7gb DVD R

2.) I'd stick with Windows 7 64Bit, depending on how old the Mac is, you might even have to go 32 bit.

3.) If you open the app Boot Camp on the Mac, all it does is add a partition to the Mac. So all your school stuff will still be there, it'll just be in a small amount of available space.

4.) Yes, you can. All you would do is go back to the Boot Camp app, and remove the partition, and it'll go back to your regular size hard drive.

As for risks, I personally never found any when I was running Boot Camp on my Mac. Feel free to PM me if you need further help.

Try using the open source program 'Burn' instead of Apple's Disk Utility.

I wouldn't be surprised if Disk Utility was just putting that iso file onto the DVD, rather than burning it as that ISO.

You're welcome!

I'm still waiting for my white Saturn (jap) to arrive along with the modchip I've ordered so I honestly don't know what to use to burn bin/cue or MP3/iso/cue images on Mac.

I think Burn will do the job: http://burn-osx.sourceforge.net/Pages/English/home.html

Give it a try and let us know if it works!

iDVD was discontinued over 2 years ago. I recommend looking for a new app to fill this niche. Toast Titanium is a good full featured alternative but costs $80. I use Burn which is a very simple open source alternative. It doesn't have the option to create menus but otherwise does the trick.

That said, give some thought to if you really need to burn DVDs at all. I've found that unless I am giving a copy to a grandparent or something like that, solutions like YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo, or the new (and really cool) iMovie Theater feature built right into iMovie do what I need, and aren't limited to standard definition.

You should be able to burn the mp4 file to the DVD.

All DVD video is transcoded to mpeg-2, and then authored in a Video OBject structure (VOB) of transport Streams (TS files.)

The three apple settings probably has more to do with whether or not analysis time is spent with the files (CBR or VBR) more than how compressed it is.

Do you have the necessary free space on your drive? I figure you have 4 gigs of ram on your system, double that, you need to keep at least 8-10 gigs free...and you'll need about 5 gigs for the DVD, so, do you have 15+ gigs free on your system?

Last: you could also try Burn an open source DVD authoring program. It's free.

Google how to burn iso images in macos, I found a few different methods when I googled it. Years ago when I used Burn, besides the built in disk utility app.

That's a complicated string of events there. As far as burning CDs goes, Burn will help you make standard HFS CDs that can be read in System 7.

Encore can burn them but I suggest making an ISO with Encore and then burn with another software application.

As for what software to use, 'Burn' is a free / open source program for burning disk images (ISOs) to physical disc media.

I never really burned much on my MacBook, but I used to use Burn occasionally. It's free, and it even has a video showing how to use it to burn a VIDEO_TS folder.

DVD readable can mean many things. Are you shooting for portability, so it can play everywhere? Or are you having a specific player in mind?

For 1:

From /u/400vinestreet - Use Instructions: http://www.creativetechs.com/iq/easily_burn_movies_to_a_dvd_without_apples_idvd.html

Burn: http://burn-osx.sourceforge.net/

For 2:

HandBrake, with .mkv or .mp4 as output, depending on what the player supports. Don't mess with .avi, that's obsolete and unnecessary.

When I still burned OS ISOs back in 2007 I always use this to burn things Burn.app

It still works. If you are looking for a CD/DVD Burning Free method I recommend the Zalman VE-400 or VE-300, it's a little external HDD that Emulates a DVD Drive, just drop the ISO on it and reboot.

Burn. Free, easy to use, and works with a variety of formats. Tutorial here.

>Have any suggestions for a program to burn these videos onto playable DVDs? (also which format do videos need to be in for that?)

I wish I could say there's a free program that burns movie files to DVD without hassle, but I haven't found one. Burn comes close but always seems to goof up the aspect ratio for me. Toast Titanium is the only good one I've dealt with, but it costs money.

I think I'm misreading something. There should just be a button that lets you mount the host optical drive, does that not work correctly? http://i.imgur.com/KXAtx.png

If not, a workaround would be to download Burn and rip your disc to an ISO or DMG, then mount that image in Virtualbox.

1. Burn

2. Airprint Activator

3. Ubuntu disk with Autopsy, or similar.

4. Gimp

5. iCal

6. Geektool can do similar things, if you have the know how.

7. Can't think of one.

8. This can be done with Disk Utility, TextEdit, and Finder, but it isn't as elegant.

9. Why would anyone want this.

10. LaTeX

11. The internet, although not as easily.
