Windows 10: BDMV Folder

I'm trying to burn some video files onto a Blu-ray disc using ImgBurn. According to instructions I should have two folders for this purpose, BDMV and BDAV. I am supposed to type these into the Source Box along with the Certificate. Big problem for me is when I type these letters ImgBurn says the files do not exist. This has been dogging me for days as I cannot locate these files/folders.The Blu-ray discs are brand new and I guess the information is on them but try as I might, they are nowhere to be seen. Where can they be? Help required urgently to locate them would be much appreciated.

:)

 

I get "Insert a Disc" message & DVD Media is ejected when DVD drive contains a DVD Media.

Hi Kumar

Thanks for your quick reply.

The driver update did not solve the problem.

I have found the solution as follows:

The DVD was burned as a Blu-ray Disc containing 2 Directories:

BDMV

CERTIFICATE

No problem with this Disc under Windows XP.

In Windows 10 the DVD must be burned as an AVCHD Disc.

Which should only contain 1 Directory BDMV & no CERTIFICATE.

Best regards

 

Storing Video MTS files.

Robert, additional info:

when dowloading fro card reader we have the following:

DCIM

PRIVATE

Paths: DCIM/ 2 MPEG 4 files. NO MTS!

PRIVATE/AVCHD/AVCHDTN,BDMV,PANA.EXT.

AVCHD/ THUMB.TDN,THUM.TID

None of these yield the MTS files.

if imported directly using elements all files appear and display.

Depends on what you mean by "some video files" and "a Blu-ray disc"

If you are looking to produce a BDV-compliant Blu-Ray video disc suitable for playback on a home video player, the "video files" need to be converted into a BDV-compliant format, and then authored into the proper file structure that your burning program is expecting. ImgBurn cannot do this; it is expecting all of the above to have already been done by the appropriate video software. That is why ImgBurn cannot find these files/folders - you haven't created them yet.

If you are just looking to make a Blu-ray data disc containing a random assortment of non-compliant video files (.mp4, .wmv, .avi, etc) then you can simply tell ImgBurn to make a UDF-format data disc and drag the files into the source window. Many Blu-Ray players have codecs built into their firmware designed to play "user-provided video files" and might be able to play such a data disc as-is.

 

Thank you mike s. I thought something was amiss when I couldn't locate those files, now I know why. I am trying to do the latter task which is to burn video mp4 files to a Blu-ray disc so that hopefully should be pretty straightforward. Your reply is much appreciated, thank you.
