DVD copying.

Copying a non protected one you've made yourself etc. Like say a weddingvideo or other home movie, which plays OK on any DVD player.I've got 2 DVD drives on a Win7 PC. If I open up the DVD and copy andpaste the file folders inside to a blank DVD in the second drive, itdoesn't work. Although the file folders appear in it.If I copy them to the HD first, then copy them to the blank DVD, it does. Just curious.

I wouldn't have thought that would work either?

I still think it's to do with the formatting, which could include some hidden files etc.

Microsoft is choosing between 'Live File System/UDF' and 'Mastered' for you. You want the latter. It's probably a deficiency in their software you can't override UDF going DVD disk to DVD disk.
