    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.

DVD Studio Pro and Toast 6 Question

i have DVD SP 2 and Toast 6. I am burning using a Lacie 8x +/- RW external drive. Normally, I burn -R from DVD SP, but have the need to do a DVD on +R. Toast will do this but I have two issues:

1) Does anyone know how to incorporate the menus from DVD SP into Toast when burning? Do I need to create an ISO file from DVD SP?

2) From what I have read the great advantage to +R is that on some drives you can do "bitsetting" on the actual disk to trick older DVD players that the disk is a DVD-ROM instead of a recordable DVD. It has helped with compatibility on older drives. So, does anyone have experience using Toast 6 to create a DVD-ROM disk with the full DVD image from DVD SP that can play on stand alone players.

I am able to do this on a PC with a bitsetting utility, but prefer to produce the videos on the mac.

Thanks.

-Bob
