video dvd bonus

[quzma]

well, i burnt iso file and got video-dvd (audio_ts and video_ts are present) and 2 bonus folders with mp3s
also, theres some pdf in root. Everything seems ok and plays on comp.
Normally, i expected that standalone player (panasonic eh57 recorder) will play video-dvd (video_ts) only
but it automatically plays (and see) only 2 mp3 folders. How is it possible?
Also, that leads me to another question:
Is it possible to make video-dvd with bonus folder (mp3 or divx or both) that can be played on standalone player
thanks

Yep, you can make a dvd-video with data files.

What burning software did you use?

thanks baldrick,
i used power-iso
but question is
is it posible to have bonus folder that can be played on standalone
mine always choose dvd-video automatically and cant see a way to
enter bonus folders

AFAIK a "normal" set-top player will see either the DVD-video stuff
or the "data" contents of a DVD --- it's not been designed to
do both things on the same disk. This rule is valid even for the
weird SAPs that can deal with multi-session CDs and "incrementally-written"
DVDs. A regular optical disk with video&&other-things has "\VIDEO_TS\VIDEO_TS.IFO"
as the first file on its file system, the additional contents being recorded after the last
.VOB or .BUP.

i thought so
well, dvd from my first post:
playin it on comp it seems that video_ts i perfectly ok
how is it possible that player choose bonus content before dvd-v

by the way, that recorder (unlike old toshiba player)
don't have "jump to" exact second on dvd for finalized
discs (anyway that very fine unit - EH57). How can it be? Well, that is what it's all about. Searching...
Discs (gramophone, cd, dvd) against all kinds of tapes
(Chapters helps, but i dont want to build them)
mine panasonic vhs was faster searcher than dvd (of course, not search, but ffrwd)
Is it common issue with other players/recorders or...?
thanks
