Doesn't it suck when a rented DVD wont burn !

I've had two or three rented movies with cracks in them ! so using Isopropol alcohol etc wont work. These ones of course you can take back and ask for another one.

But there are some that are just a bit scratched or worn that seem to play in DVD players but not my DVD drive.

I have used Ripit4me which seems to rip them OK, but looses part of the damaged tracks etc.

I usually use dvdshrink and it works just fine.

I'm trying VSO 's Copy To DVD . It took 15 minuets to encode and burn , I'm impressed .

As I said I don't usually rent movies but thought thats a great program . I found it on IPT bundled in a package called VSO AIO , with key gen and "all" the VSO programs like Convertxtodvd , CopytoDvd , etc. Nice pack tho , pm me for details if interested , I do luv sharing . :)


As an after thought when Copy To DVD started it asked me to pick an encoder ? My default was Nero 7 Encoder but was asked if I wanted to download more . Thought that was interesting did n't check it out tho .

I've never used vso's copy but I regularly use convertx and am more then happy with it. I'm gonna have to give copy a try next time I burn something. Thanks for the review.

People still rent movies this days? Gosh I should start renting too, but that wouldn't be ethical lol

yep, i still do it too, for boxsets.
it takes a day to copy 4/5 discs, depending on if you have to re-encode it or not, but still faster than downloading 20gb of data ( at least for me).

i can also very much recommend vso's utilities, but mostly dvdshrink does the job if you only keep the main movie.
but for the newest copyright protections you might have to use anydvd too.

I don't rent movies but still buy as gifts for friends or loved ones . D/L a movie and naming the dvd with my trusty black felt pen , thats unethical . :naughty:

By the way CopytoDvd did n't work for 2 of the 4 store bought dvd's I tried , made me wonder about the pick an encoder option ? I use to have Dvd Santa and Dvd shrink installed but to be honest I never tried them . Afterdawn has some good links and ideas , one of days I'll have to pursue it further . :yup:
