RossMAN Posted March 16, 2005 Author Posted March 16, 2005 Sweet thanks. It said ends at 5:30PST we got ours at 4:29 lol Thanks again guys you ROCKCongratulations, you should be very happy with your new DVD Burner. Just curious which DVD ripping software do you plan on using?
Scott Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Congratulations, you should be very happy with your new DVD Burner. Just curious which DVD ripping software do you plan on using?If you plan on making legal backups of the DVDs you own, there is nothing better than DVDShrink. If you want to archive an entire DVD, without compression. Nothing beats DVD Decrypter.

Mara Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Congratulations, you should be very happy with your new DVD Burner. Just curious which DVD ripping software do you plan on using?We have DVD wizard pro. We are trying to make backup copys of our DVD collection with it but have run into a problem. It dycripts the DVD fine but for some reason the DVDs we burn can only be played back on the computer they don't work in our DVD player. Not sure what we are doing wrong. Any thoughts on that problem? We tried DVD dycriptor and DVD shrinks and couldn't seem to figure out how to make a DVD copy that would play in the DVD player with that either. Any thoughts are greatly appreciated. Mara
cthulhu Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Are these freeware or commercial apps?Dvddecrypter and DVDshrink are both freeware and very good at backing up dvds. I use both and both are great.

I've never had any problems using dvddecrypter or dvdshrink.

If you are using +R now, try a -R. If you are using -R, try a +R. Also, if you have a friend that can test it in their player, that will help confirm if your disks are good. Most newer DVD players will play anything you throw at them. We picked up a $30 no name DVD player over the summer and it plays everything.

We have a Sony DVD player and they won't play in that. We also have a XBOX and they won't play in that grrrrrrr. If there some sort of last step to finalize the disk were missing or something? They play just fine on the computer just not in any 3 of our DVD players. Were using DVD +R figured that should work since our DVD recorder only records on DVD +R not on DVD -R. Were kinda clueless. We have been using a external DVD recorder we use with our laptop. Picked up this new one as a internal duel layer for out desktop. Thanks again

Thanks againWell, try a -R disk in the new one, and let us know how it goes. Meritline actually sells DVD samplers. Basically, you get two disks in a DVD case to try out. I suggest Ritek as they are well known to be a quality media. Meritline DVD samplers $3.75 with free shipping

This is where I go. If your dvd player is listed here you can find out what your dvd player can play. I've used 100's of Ritek/Ridata +R's and have never had a problem. I currently have 300 Fujifilm +R's, actually made by Taiyo Yuden which is considered by many to be one of the best, that I bought at Bestbuy when they were on sale. You can search media here.
