While we are on a dvd discussion, what file type extension should be used to burn audio files to a dvd playable on a home dvd player? Some dvd players will read computer audio file extensions from usb connector or other inputs. They do not seem to read the same when on a dvd disk. R e b
It's entirely up to the playback device. If it can read a file off a CD, and it *can* read DVDs, it usually can read the same file types. What may be at issue is the DVD filesystem. It's quite possible the playback device doesn't understand UDF filesystems, in which case you *might* be able to make it work by burning an ISO9660 filesystem onto DVD media, but this is very non-standard and may be far more trouble than is worth. In other words, is putting an MP3 file in CD works, and putting an MP3 file on DVD doesn't, is has nothing to do with the file. Check the user manual for your playback device; it should tell you exactly what formats and media are supported. And if it doesn't, tell us the make and model of the device. -Adam Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/AAb9ysg> ________________________________ From: destiny2b@wisdomtree.info <destiny2b@wisdomtree.info> Sent: Wednesday, March 25, 2026 9:14:33 PM To: roundtable@muug.ca <roundtable@muug.ca> Subject: [RndTbl] DVD audio file type While we are on a dvd discussion, what file type extension should be used to burn audio files to a dvd playable on a home dvd player?
