Members echodeluxe Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 okay, so say i had some songs i wanted to burn to a cd. could i also burn a video to the cd so that you could watch it when you put it into the computer? or is it terribly complicated? thanks.

Members echodeluxe Posted June 17, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 the idea is that i want to record a video of one of the songs from my ep being played live, and have that added to the ep so that you can stick it in your computer and watch the video.

Members Faldoe Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 no I get what you're saying, just being silly. I think most bands that do that use a dual layer disc? Music on one side, video on the other....but I know I've seen cds that have both video and audio on the same side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members AnderMocs Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 meh, the video on cd thing has kind of died out with the invention of youtube/vimeo(better site IMO). Seems like a pain in the ass for something that will just bug most people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members echodeluxe Posted June 17, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 i dont think people will care much, seeing is that they can watch the video or not. i wouldnt make menus, just a file they could click on in their computer folder and watch. i dunno, thought it might be a nice addition to the cd. like, only for people who bought or received the cd...

Members Zappa74 Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 It is possible to make combination audio/data discs. It will play like a regular cd but if you pop it in a computer, you will also have access to whatever data (videos in your case) you put on it. I remember Nero used to have that feature, but I stopped using Nero a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members p0lymath Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 So long as the format is right I don't think it'd be an issue. Then again, depending on the format of the video it may unable to transfer to a straight up CD and you may need specialized discs. Which, if you're printing in mass quantities, could be a kick to the wallet. I say try and burn it on a regular cd first and then test it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members AnderMocs Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 To be brutally honest, I hate it when bands try this kind of thing. It's a kind of dumb idea that labels tried to do to combat piracy. And then people just took the video and put it online. I've never been encouraged to buy an indie bands album because of a bonus video. Cool/unique/handmade packaging however does make me want to own a physical copy. Just my 2 cents.

Members p0lymath Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 You just gotta keep going bro. Let me tell you story. My ex had a poster of Yoda in her room for some reason, and when I {censored}ed her I'd always stare at the poster because there was this birthmark on the back of her neck that looked hella strange and it creeped me out. Anyway, the poster said "Do or do not; there is no try" and I just kept reading that over and over until I spaffed. And that's exactly like you're situation. Ander is like my ex's weird birthmark and I'm like the Yoda poster telling you that you just have to keep going no matter what because in the end everybody will be satisfied.

Members ambient Posted June 17, 2010 Members Share Posted June 17, 2010 wow the CD-ROM retro revolution. We used to add a DVD with a bunch of stuff, not sure how you go about making the data disk work. There might be some sort of programming involved if you wanted a menu and stuff to auto-run.
