Disc-At-Once Instead of Track-At-Once ? difference, possible, burning, between

andy

Hi,

I made an SVCD with DVD2SVCD and now have 2 images, Nero automaticly takes Track-At-Once but my writer doesn't support it I guess since I get errors.
I tried burning it in Disc-At-Once and it seems to be working.

Does this affect my SVCD?
What is the difference between the 2 formats?

Thanks in advance.

There is practically no diff. btw. DAO and TAO in your case.

1. When you burn image in DAO, it is not possible to add sessions to it afterwards. But in TAO.

2. Some very old VCD/DVD-Player(standalone/desktop, not PC) cann´t handle the VCD in DAO, only in TAO. But you will search very hard to catch such a antique.

3. When you burn a VCD-image in TAO and add a neu session, the VCD would not be accepted any more by most player, if any(most burn software are not able to do this). Anyway the added .dat file will not show in player. For SVCD I assume the same.

thank you very much, this has helped me a lot

now I can go on and burn them

With DAO, what is the difference between DAO16 and DAO96 (using the latest nero, and fireburner, these options are avaliable)

DAO96=RAW DAO
DAO16=DAO

Have to add this: you must use DAO if you want to overburn.

DAO is not the condition of overburn.
In some software, i.e. Nero, it is only required to quot;close the diskquot; after burning(due to no more place on cd-r). That means not quot;DAOquot;.
In fact it imeans there is no more place to write a new quot;lead-inquot; track, which is the condition for adding a new session(track), which again is the domain of quot;TAOquot;.
Résumé: You can overburn the cd in TAO, but the last track must be quot;close diskquot;.
