I have a program that I recorded off the television on my shiny Panasonic E50 using DVD-ram ,edited out the commercials etc .Now I want to convert it to DVD-R so my father in law can watch it ? My Liteon 166 reads the disc and I can use PowerDVD to play it back ,I can copy the disc 1:1 but it's not in the DVD-R format and won't play on a stand alone. I'm waffling , how do I convert DVD-ram to DVD-R , Any help greatly appreciated :cool:

aint 100% sure but u could read as an iso with dvd decrypter and write it back as an iso :tup:

Pretty sure that you need to rename the files as DVD-RAM doesn't use VOB's it uses something else VRO??

i usually change the file extension from vro to vob, recode with cce and author with dvdmaestro.

many thanks i will try this later ,fingers crossed

I wondered about this too because people said you could make a dvd-r from a dvdrm right on the panasonic itself. I haven't figured that out yet.
Its Odd your liteon can read that format too.

Found this on a related page ,I will try it today. It CCE didn't seem to keen to play . Thanks to all those who responded
Convert RAM Disc VR_MOVIE.VRO to DVD-R VST_01_1.vob

Create VIDEO_TS folder copy and rename *.VRO File to VST_01_1.vob,
create IFO files using ifoedit this will create a VIDEO_TS.IFO & VTS_01_1.IFO
Burn VIDEO_TS folder to DVR-R Disc - backup of RAM on DVD-R.

That sounds as though it might work.

Let us know how you get on m8

I know this is a really old post now but did anyone ever find out how the heck to copy a DVD-Ram to DVD-R as I REALLY need to do this for work.

Here's hoping!

May help if you follow this.
