All my video-editing work so far has (thank goodness) been limited to D8 or DV tapes. Now, ignoring all advice and common sense, I've gone and accepted a job that involves Mini-DVDs. I've never worked with them before, and don't actually know much about them.
The first step is reading the dang things. I have tried three computers and two DVD players, but nothing recognizes them as valid discs. Based on the "empty" message one of the computers gave me, I'm assuming the discs aren't finalized and each of my players starts looking for data after the video segment is completed, and thus finds a blank disc.
This is a guess, but I think a reasonable one.
Can I finalize the discs without going out and buying a Mini-DVD camera just for this purpose? Or, better yet, is there something else I can do to read these stupid things?
Any help would be appreciated.
