It's also the case with something like 'Burn.app' that you can't add in chapter points[0] - the video consists os a single chapter.

Toast has some rudimentary DRM protection built in, which sometimes thinks it should refuse to burn, for some unfathomable reason. Jan

Ah. Hmm. Okay. I've bought a few of them. Never seen how to back 'em up. I don't think I really need to bother spending money on that to back up my handful of Iron Maiden CDs with vids on 'em. (I've seen the band, that'll do me for video. And since it was about 25 years ago I saw then band, it was all as it should have been) > I don't think any other software does this. I don't think that all producers of hybrid discs in the world use Toast, do they? Commercial and all? Toast is a global monopoly on this? Shouldn't think so... Might well be that there's nothing else suitable for home users that's pushed to us, though.
