Dvd Copying

[phatdoggydogg203]

is it possible 2 make a copy of a dvd that is bigger than 4.7 gb INCLUDING THE MENU

[Adster]

no it's not

you have to compress a DVD-8 to DVD5 under 4.7 gig

yes you can still have the menus and all too but has to be under 4.7

[Robert00000]

Use dvdshrink or dvd2one, they will create what you want.

I use DVDXCOPY and it copies 6 to 7 gig DVD’s onto a 4.7 gig DVD+-R.
Every once in a while I can't copy the entire DVD and have to settle for just the movie no menu. I don't know what causes that but it doesn't seem to be related to the size of the original DVD. Jpwillia

Because the Original DVD which is called DVD9 has 2 layer which is double the capacity as a DVDr that being DVD-5

there is no burner that does DVD-9 as of yet

the Original is Encrypted you have to use DVDsrink yo to do as said above and the quality is near perfectly the same as the original

DVDXCOPY can compress and successfully burn any movie which is over 4.7gb you must get the latest version to do this i reccomend XPRESS version 3.2.1


is the best DVD copying software ive copied 100's of DVD's :)

[phatdoggydogg203]

tell me where 2 get xpress version from then, or can u send it to me

[phatdoggydogg203]

well i use the crack version of platinum from suprnova but it didnt work out for me , sometimes it cuts off when doing the process

DVDshrink is poo!

[Adster]

If you want better quality then of course you have to wait longer....

[phatdoggydogg203]

well ive copy 2 dvds over 7gb to a 4.7gb dvdr, shrink is cool but it just take over 3 hours

the dvd is still good quality too :rolleyes:

i had a crack version of express but it didnt turn out good, it just exit the program during encoding without promping u, one time it encoded all the way but then it said some kinda error when i tried 2 burn it .

well XCOPY is the best but it doesnt work out for some people :)

[dboucher]

have been using dvdxcopy express platinum for a few dvd's now, but all seem to sufer from jerking/skipping...is this my dvd player or the computer when i'm burning...?

[Jg427]

It could be that platinum does not get along with other software you have running. Here (http://forum.321studios.com/?f=22&m=15402) is a list of blacklisted software.
Try switching brands of dvd r, a different one might play better. I've read that some people burn to dvd rw and then rip that to burn to r.

I tried everything I could think of and still not one perfect copy with platinum. I guess it could have been a bad copy of the program.
Dvdshrink worked the first time and every copy has been perfect. Give it a try.

dvd shrink is still the thing for me :) , i've copy like 4 or 5 dvds with the menus , i think its the best for copying the whole dvd disc, but if u want a quick copy of a dvd i would say use the dvd decrypter,dvd2one and copy only the movie, thats the quickest way i know,

well anyways ive copyed bad boys II wiht shrink yesterday and it only took like an hour 40 minutes!! and the quality is amazing

DVD Shrink is definately not the way to go if you want maximum quality.

If you want to retain the main movies' quality, then you'll need to follow another guide called Full DVD Backup Guide (http://www.dvdrhelp.com/guides.php?link=250). There is another one I'm trying to find which has everything you'll ever need to know.

The thing to remember is this. There are 2 types of DVD Copying.

QUALITY OVER SPEED or SPEED OVER QUALITY.

I prefer QUALITY OVER SPEED. I do not mind waiting 24hrs to ensure my DVD has been copied with the maximum possible quality. Once burnt, it will only take 30 minutes max (depending on burner) to secure another copy.



As for DVDXCOPY, whoever mentioned this piece of crap should be shot. These guys are working with the film industry to insure that you do not burn copyrighted material. Measures include an invisible watermark that lets the movie industry know if it's a legit copy or not. I don't know about you guys but if the cops ever 'visit' my house, I do not want years worth of burning to tell the authorities what I have done. I'm looking for the article I read on this as I type this.

[Unknown Soldier]

hey

Just use DVD Shrink 3.0

Its the best there is , u dont get any of those lame disclaimers, and its a bit quicker then dvd x copy.

3 hours. WTF :blink: .

Whats your system spec? I've been using dvd shrink for a while and the longest it took was 50 mins on a movie.

If you want speed then i would recommend dvd2one, it takes 15 to 25 mins (on my system specs - Athlon 2000 XP)

Whichever software you use always get the latest one because the features and speed are always improved.

yep exactly

I see no loss of quality with DVDsrink btw or maybe I&#39;m just blind or something

anyway

it should take about 1hr at the most for a 3hr movie&#33;

and yes DVDXcopy is a sack of shit


and get DVD srink 3.1.6 3.0 has lots of bug like freezintg crashing

[pddcavs04]

well it only take like a hour now for some reason, at first it was like 3 hours

[DWells55]

I&#39;ve been using DVD X Copy Xpress for 4 months nnow (paid for it - &#036;50 with 25 DVDs , 10 cases, and Ulead 6) and I love it. The warning message is easy to remove, and it hasn&#39;t failed to copy any DVD I&#39;ve tried. It does the whole thing with the menus, special features, all audio formats, everything in under an hour&#33; And as for the feds being able to tell if you burned a disc, the disc that says DVD+R and then the movie name in black marker will give it away, not some invisible watermark, buddy. DVD X Copy Xpress is extremely easy to use - 3 clicks and you&#39;re done. It also auto-compresses large DVDs to fit onto 1 disc (with no to very little, little as in bearly noticable when you&#39;re 1 foot from the TV, quality loss) So especially if you&#39;re new to copying DVDs, DVD X Copy Xpress is the way to go&#33;

[MUSLEMAN]

xpress and dvd x copy platinum is the best, they copy anything. and make it look like they are helping the industry when all you have to do is just hit no when it asks " is this a rental" i think its very smart of them to put that in there. :lol: so far there has been nothing i have not been able to copy with them with great quality :lol:

[pddcavs04]

well i have dvd x expres and dvd strink but, strink is doing the thing for me:)
