I want to convert an MP4 video into a DVD using a Linux-based process such as FFMPEG. Currently we're using Nero to burn MP4 to DVD video, but I want to automate the process as much as possible.
When Nero creates a DVD disc from a single MP4 video, I noticed it splits the video into multiple VOB files. What's the point of this?
If I insert a DVD created by Nero, Windows immediately recognises it as a DVD video and runs Windows Media Player - perfect!
FFMPEG on the other hand just creates a single VOB file.
When I burn the VOB file created by FFMPEG to disc and then insert the disc, Windows does not auto play the disc. When I try to open the VOB file via Windows Explorer, it tells me the video might not be from a trusted source, though it does (eventually) play. Ideally I want FFMPEG or another Linux-based process to create the same DVD structure as Nero so that when the disc is inserted, Windows sees it in the same way as it would if Nero created the disc.
Is this at all possible?
