I might try just dragging the VIDEO_TS folder to Toast in lieu of the whole directory paths NAME AUDIO_TS + VIDEO_TS ... maybe that's confusing Toast DL output (probably not)?

I'll fix that, then rerun MDR ... that's why it didn't finish, and it retained .ripping as the suffix (no error message). Also ... I'll not use the Toast window Video Advanced DVD-Video from VIDEO_TS, as I usually do when burning a NAME AUDIO_TS + VIDEO_TS folder. Instead, I'll use Copy Advanced Image File. Is that correct?
