    How to preview 'Exported to folder' Encore project as finalized DVD?

    Igor Valentovitch Community Member

      Hi,

       

      I have a 40GB project which I recently exported to a folder on my HDD for burning onto a dual layer blu-ray disc (note: as those of you who burn dual-layer (DL) blu-ray discs (BD) know there is a bug in Encore which prevents creating a BD-DL disc image. This leaves one with the option of exporting the project into a folder and then burning the contents of that folder onto a BD-DL disc - a workaround that works very well).

       

      I have successfully burned and played dual layer blu-ray discs this way. Sometimes, I find mistakes on my part either in the PrP editing or Encore menu creation segments, which I wish I had noticed prior to burning an expensive BD-DL disc. This brings me to my question: is it possible to make the computer play the contents of a project exported to a folder as if this is a finalized DVD disc (blu-ray dvd in my case) ? If this is possible, then how? This will help me to preview my projects prior to burning them on discs. The preview option in Encore is nice but has its limitations.

       

      Thank you.
