Making a Video DVD with data

[Raj Kiran Grandhi <grajkiran@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I am trying to make a video DVD out of some home videos for sharing with 
friends. I want it to be  playable on standalone DVD players as well as 
readable on both linux and windows. In addition to the videos, the DVD 
will also contain html albums of several photos created by photon.

So far, I have converted the video files into the correct format using 
ffmpeg. I have used dvd-slideshow to create videos out of some photos, 
and finally used dvdstyler to generate a compatible DVD file structure. 
I am able to play the result using both xine and vlc.

Now, when I try to create an udf image out of it, genisoimage warns 
about dropping joliet support. The exact message is this:

Warning: Disabling Joliet support for DVD-Video.

Should I be concerned about this? Are joliet extensions required for UDF 
in order to be read on windows? Was anybody successful at creating a 
similar DVD (Video+Data)?

Any comments would be helpful. Google has not been very helpful, or 
maybe I was using the wrong terms.

Thank you,
Raj Kiran
