Besides the normal content on a DVD, you can include additional DVD-Rom content to make your DVD more exciting or more versatile, and you can do it right in DVD Studio Pro. Basically you're adding an extra folder along with the Video_TS folder. A DVD with DVD-Rom content on it will play normally in a DVD player, but it can also be played on a computer DVD drive to access the additional content. Adding DVD-Rom content in DVD Studio Pro is relatively easy.

In your DVD Studio Pro project, click on the Outline Tab, and highlight the disc icon. You can see the Disc Inspector in the lower right portion of the interface. At the bottom of the General Tab of the Disc Inspector, you will see the box to check for DVD-Rom content. Also, check the box for the Joliet Extension Support. Click Choose, and navigate to the folder you want to include for your DVD-Rom content.

Keep in mind when adding DVD-Rom content to your DVD that you watch your file size on the disc meter. You can also use the DVD-Rom content option for adding High Definition video to a Standard Definition DVD.
