Well, following advices from ubuntuforums, I 1st upgraded to genisoimage 1.1.8 (thru a Debian package) and that did not solve the issue: burned DVD is still unrecognized by windows.
Then, I downgraded to genisoimage 1.1.2 from the Ubuntu repositories, and now it works. The generated DVD exhibits AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS directories under Windows XP and the video works fine. To sum up: - genisoimage 1.1.6 from Hardy does not work - installing genisoimage 1.1.7 or 1.1.8 from Debian does not help - downgrading to genisoimage 1.1.2 from Ubuntu Feisty works and creates correct iso files that can be burned to DVD (to my knowledge) My 2 cents -- genisoimage generates wrong DVD-Video images https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/233942 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
