"Safest" place to add other assets to DVD?

[tdan]

I am authoring a DVD for someone who would also like to include additional files (documents, photos) that a user could access from their PC.

Can I just include another folder alongside the VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS? Are there any potential pitfalls to doing this (I would call it something like "DATA" or "EXTRAS")?

That is how it's done. You can even add autorun features in the root of the isc, if you wish. So long as you don't screw with the video_ts folder, you can add pretty much anything you want.

Just put them in other folders in the root, I've done it for at promodisc I made for a local company.

I also include a folder with Mplayer and a AC3 filter so that i would auto paly on computers. in the root I placed this .inf file.

OPEN=MPLAY\MPLAYERC.EXE "VIDEO_TS" /fullscreen /DVD

works most of the time and it does not have any effect on standalone players.
