what windows version are you running ??

[Sharc]

@gsc1ugs: It runs here under Windows 11. You should however use it with the originally shipped ffmpeg.exe from 2015. Copy attached. Extract it into the \bin folder. It failed here with newer versions of ffmpeg.exe.

Or you may want to try the newer DVDStyler as an alternative. It is still actively supported.

[gsc1ugs]

On windows 10 - just copied file above, back to number 48

[ProWo]

Delete this folder:
C:\Users\XXX\AppData\Roaming\DVD Flick
(where XXX is your user name on Windows)
and restart DVD Flick.

Tried still number 48

Tried still number 48

try Right-click the program icon, select Properties, and then navigate to the Compatibility tab.
Check the box next to “Run this program in compatibility mode for” and select the desired version of Windows from the dropdown list.

[ProWo]

Install Revo Uninstaller (free version).
https://www.revouninstaller.com/start-freeware-download/

Start it, wait until all installations are found.
Search DVD Flick in the list, rightclick it, select uninstall.
Uncheck "Make a system restore point before uninstall", click continue, click yes on the uninstall questions.
If finished, click scan.
Select all found registry entries, click delete.
Click next.
Select all leftover files and folders, click delete.
Close Revo Uninstaller and reinstall DVD Flick.

Same here. Seems to accept .avi, mpeg2 in .mkv or mpeg2 in .m2ts, or mpeg2 elementary streams only. Maybe it doesn't like the mpeg4 codec (AVC) or the audio in your .mp4
Haven't really been using DVDFlick in the past though. It has been abandoned in 2015.
Better switch to DVDStyler.

[gsc1ugs]

Well somethings wrong because it says in supported files??

I believe Sharc may be on to something.
.MP4 is a container so it may depend on the video or audio codec used to create the .MP4 file.
DVDFlick is old so may support only older codec for creating an .mp4.
Probably the reason it needs the original ffmpeg be used.
I do not have DVDFlick installed but I did use it many years ago & liked it back then.
I remember it had a limit of 99 files.

Yes i wanted make a DVD hence my post, DVD Flick did not work - Imgburn did

[cholla]

@ gsc1ugs,
I believe what confuses davexnet & myself.
Probably others too.
Is the process you used to create a DVD with ImgBurn from a .MP4 file.

ImgBurn can create a Data DVD from a .MP4 file but that is not a DVD compliant DVD.
Meaning .IFO , .BUP , .VOB files in a VIDEO_TS folder.
ImgBurn can Write a DVD like this from an .ISO file that contains the VIDEO_TS folder.
ImgBurn can Build & burn a compliant DVD from a VIDEO_TS folder.
I like many here are long time users of ImgBurn.

[gsc1ugs]

I did burn a DVD but when you say compliant what do you mean? some people have said it wont work but on the disc has both
VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS

[cholla]

These are the files in a DVD VIDEO_TS folder I had handy.
It is a compressed to DVD5 size & without a menu.
This is basically what should be inside your VIDEO_TS folder.
Usually the AUDIO_TS folder is empty.

If you created a folder & files like these from a .MP4 with ImgBurn .
I need instructions for how.

I gonna make another and post results, DVD Flick will not add contents of VIDEO_TS

[cholla]

I looked up an old DVD I created with DVDFlick in 2009.
I wrote it to DVD with CloneDVD2.
The list of files is too long to take a screen shot of but you can see it has 195 files.
I did the menu so they can be selected as needed.

What I would like to know is how you created a compliant DVD from a .MP4 file with just ImgBurn.
AFAIK this is not possible.

[gsc1ugs]

I should stand corrected, you first have to make an ISO then dvd, i forgot to mention, i copied VIDEO_TS of original then made DVD, dvd flick failed

[cholla]

I have used ImgBurn for a long time.
If you rip or copy the VIDEO_TS folder to your hard drive then you can use Build mode to write that folder to a DVD disc.
You do not have to create an .ISO to do this.
Just a note I do not use EZ-Mode Picker in ImgBurm.
I select the mode I want to use from the Mode drop down.

If you want to create DVD compliant folders & files from a .mp4 or many other formats try AVStoDVD.
It has worked well for me.

Is this to get complaint DVD? i'm just wondering why DVD i created worked for me but other friends didnt

If the folder & files that are loaded into ImgBurn are compliant then it will write them correctly to the DVD.
I use Build mode for DVD Folders & files because it eliminates the need to create an .ISO first.
For not using EZ-Mode Picker I learned to use ImgBurn before it had EZ-Mode Picker.
I prefer to select from the Mode drop down exactly what I was to use.
I would need to memorize what EZ-Mode Picker names the selection in the Mode drop down.
That do the same thing anyway.

Did the "other friends" use a DVD you created or one they created ?
There are too many variables to answer this question without a lot more details.
