Believe it or not I am still making DVDs with Encore in March of 2019.
One annoyance I encountered recently is that Encore does not make an empty AUDIO_TS folder when Building an iso file from the current project.
I know this has always been the case. Previously I did not make an iso directly, I created a DVD Folder, manually added a AUDIO_TS folder, and then used Toast to make the iso. Only I a not using Toast anymore. What to do?
Well I actually found a workaround:
1) Build the project as DVD Folder from Encore (Output=DVD Folder, Source/Create Using=Current Project.)
2) From the Finder add an empty AUDIO_TS folder to the newly created DVD Folder as usual.
3) Back to Encore! Select Source/Create Using=DVD Volume instead of Current Project. Select the newly created DVD Folder from the Finder.
4) Select Output=DVD Image instead of DVD Folder.
5) Build!
Voilà, new iso file that includes the empty AUDIO_TS, using only Encore.
