To create a playable DVD, the files have to be put into the master image (the ISO file, in your example), in order. DVD players are very simple, and expect the first file at the start of the disc, and the rest in sequence. They can do a bit of hunting around to play different files, but each file is contiguous in itself. There's also a bootblock kind of structure to the disc, with headers identifying the type of disc. These are just a few reasons why you use video-DVD creation tools to create DVDs, rather than try to do it all by hand. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.80.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Nov 8 15:48:59 UTC 2022 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
