    Hi--

    So, I have converted all my avi files to video ts, made a img file of each and burned to dvd, will play fine on my dvd standalone. So, I tried to put TWO files on, will only recognize one. Tried the "join" command under the tools, that didn't work either. Tried burning in Toast, several ways, will still only see the first one. Any ideas of how to do this? thanks!

    If you still have the ffmpegX generated .mpg files:
    • Drag the the .mpg files from the Finder to Toast's Video window.
    If you don't have the .mpg files anymore:
    • Mount the img files. Go to Toast's Media browser. In the DVD selector, drag the desired titles to the Video window.
    Toast will author a new DVD with your selected videos. Don't forget to select a menu style.

    Ok, I do still have the .mpg files, I tried to drag to the video window, says it's an error, won't take the files, the error is: /Users/cams_user/Desktop/mac error.tiff. So, the only window that will take the img files is the data window, but I have tried that, and it ony recognizes ONE file. What am I doing wrong?

    <<mac error.tiff>>
    Could you attach it as JPG/GIF/PNG file, using the Upload image or file form in the Post reply page?

    The error -50 is a general error which means that that Toast had received an instruction/parameter it could not understand. It's been known to happen occasionally for some users, but many never see it. If your Mac is healthy, it could be one of your mpeg files, although I expect them to be okay.

    Did you try the Media Browser route?

    I don't know what you mean by Media Browser?

    Yes, it is. A worthwhile upgrade for video enthusiasts, imho.

    There are alternatives to put several video files on one dvd: Sizzle, hawkeye, ...
