[H] Backup a DVD--possible?

2005-05-24 Thread W. D.
Hi Guys, Just bought my first DVD burner. Wondered if I could backup DVDs. Read lotsa stuff on the 'Net. Seems the consensus was to extract files using DVDShrink then burn with Nero. So am using DVDShrink 3.2 and Nero 6.612. DVDShrink extracts, then calls Nero. Nero burns a coaster.

doesn't get any simpler then DVD Shrink, maybe a problem with the burner. full disk or re author ? I use ANYDVD and either nero recode or DVDCOPY2 haven't used DVD shrink lately except to combine two disks to one when nero was anal about it :)( :-} fp At 12:03 AM 5/24/2005, W. D. Poked the stick

One way is to use DVD decrypter for some of the newer copy protections... rip that to hdd, then use dvdshrink to grab the .vob files from the folder and create the DVD. On 5/24/05, W. D. [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Guys, Just bought my first DVD burner. Wondered if I could backup DVDs.

Almost the same DVD Decrypt or to create an iso image, load the image as virtual in Alcholol120. Then use DVD shrink, cutting off the long intro and credits. Then load those files into NeroVision Express so I can add some chapters. Burn that to a directory. Then use Nero to burn the DVD. Seems

This all sounds nice, but as a General Contractor, builder, and developer, who has done lots of pre wire in his 30 year career, I can tell you that trying to save a couple of hundred bucks by pulling a less capable, cheaper wire is just well, cheap. CAT 6 can be bought at Cyber Guys for as

Decryptor has many more options in terms of removing various protections - probably 10x as much. Once I have created an unprotected *.ISO and installed it in a virtual drive via Alcohol working with the movie after that is fast - reading from the virtual drive is 10x faster than reading off of a

Good point - I just back up the dvd's I buy for the twins (11 years old) I got tired of yelling everytime the dvd's were laying on the family room floor. Worse yet I looked at the backs of several of them - some I am amazed that they even play - they look like the ice after an NHL game.
