In the immortal words of Jacob Meuser <jakemsr@jakemsr.com>... > I'm not aware of anything that can create DVD file systems on the fly. Neither am I, that's why I stated that I wasn't sure it was possible, I'm hoping it is but need to know for sure. > I'm pretty sure you have to know the VOB sizes to make the IFOs.

No VOB's, no encoding, just the straight captured file. I'm thinking that I might be able to pipe the stream straight to the recording process, but I'm worried about "buffer underrun" errors causing problems with this. The burning time at the end of a recording session was an issue with the people I'm developing it for, and I'm looking into ways of getting around it. Ideally, I'd like to be able to capture/encode DVD-Video via a pipe and record directly to DVD-Video which can then be played back in a standalone DVD player, but that's for the future, at this stage playback on a PC is acceptable. For now, I'll be satisfied with dumping the raw capture to the DVD-disk.
