archiving dv-avi on a dvd (not in mpeg-2)

[zeppage2]

On another message board, a poster suggested that one could archive dv-avi files as data onto a dvd; thereby storing approximately 20 minutes...

I have tried to do this with dvd-r discs but with no success.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Thanks

I do since I'm not Robert Downey Jr.

How big are your dv-avi files?

[zeppage2]

Typical dv-avi compression scheme using the Mainconcept codec: Dv cam> computer...

Burn the file as a DVD-ROM in the UDF format!

Yep, UDF should work but not iso mode because it has a 2 GB file size limit(you could split the files though).

I am humbled to have Sir Baldrick input with positive information!
