  1. DVD formatting options


    For the inbuilt and DVD drive I see the following option:
    UDF 1.0
    UDF 1.5
    UDF 2.0
    UDF 2.01 (DEFAULT)
    UDF 2.50

    No options for ISO 9660, Joliet, HFS+

    I have downloaded ImageBurn and it gives me the option to format in IS)9660 and UDF.
    On my Mac, I formatted to UDF< ISO9660, Joliet and HFS+.

    I do want my DVDs to be as universally compatible and future-proof. My DVDs must be readable on PC and Mac.

    Is UDF by itself good enough? And is the default version 2.01 the best choice for image file storage? I do not burn to BluRay.

    Would using ImageBurn and formatting to UDF and ISO9660 bet preferable too formatting to just UDF?

    :)

    Properties won't recognize DVD's

    I upgraded from Win 8.1 to 10.

    Now when I burn a DVD my wife's computer can't read it most sometimes.

    She has Win 10 also.

    The DVD works fine on my computer though.

    If I try to manually format a DVD it refuses to give me a DVD option.

    The only option for formatting is CD-R or CD-RW, no DVD option.

    If I transfer 3.6 GB of files to a blank DVD it formats it as a DVD.

    I chose to format it as RW. But if I delete all the files to transfer them back

    on to the DVD it tells me there's not enough space and only treats it as a CD-R.

    After deleting all files on a DVD, formatted as a RW disk, the space is never released.

    Therefore, I can't put files on it anymore.

  3. formatting a disk

    I cannot format a DVD-R disc so when I burn video it can play in DVD players. Windows 10 only gives me UDF format options and not mastered format for DVD players. Is Windows 10 flawed?
