Just getting used to my Sony GXD500 DVD recorder. I had copied material off my Sky Hard Drive to a DVD-R on the Sony - worked fine so (foolishly) deleted it off the hard drive. Then whilst finalizing I accidentally erased the titles on the DVD via the Sony - doh !
Now of course the DVD can't be recognized.
I have tried ISO Buster on my PC- this recognizes the tracks and extracts them as "TAO "- however now I'm stuck and don't know what to do to get them back to a readable DVD.
Any ideas anyone ?
Thanks in anticipation

If the disc was a DVD-R, then just the table of contents was updated, since there is no real erasing of a DVD-R. Somewhere in your TAO (Track At Once) are the files needed for a DVD. Maybe use ISOBuster again on the files on your HD. The files you are looking for are all in a VIDEO_TS directory and include:
VIDEO_TS.IFO
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VTS_01_0.IFO
VTS_01_0.BUP
and a number of
VTS_01_X.VOB, where the X is a number from 1 to 9.
With those files, any burning program should be able to create a DVD.ICBM target coordinates:
26° 14' 10.16"N -- 80° 16' 0.91"W -
I don't know of anything that can read a TAO file.
