If your question is can someone tell if you copied there original DVD or not the I will have to tell you yes!!! They can tell how many time you viewed it also. They can tell just about anything you do with there DVD. So if you copied someone elses DVD I would tell you you got out and buy them a new one and replace the other one. Now if you copied one from your local video store or BlockBuster or something you may already be in trouble because they have trackers pressed into there DVD's. They can narrow it all the way down to your exact address, and a company like BlockBuster checks there disks every time you return them. I would highly recommend you stop copying other peoples DVD's and just stick to backing up your own..

Yes, and if copies are played on a PC or an entertainment center with a phone line hookup, they can call home and supply their owner with information on the location the copy is being played at. So, companies like blockbuster know when the copies are being played and where in a lot of cases. ;)

Normaly, I disconnect my phone and pull the curtains in living room when I view a backup like that ... makes me feel safe ... once your local video store gets your number, your done for.

Heres an idea. Just use a PC not connected to anything. Just use the PC to backup movies then you have no worries even if you backed up a friends movie.

A guy I know got nailed for that. He was copying discs from Netflix and nothing happened at his home because up until a week or so ago he never had a phone line. He just used his cell phone for calls and would check his emails and so forth from his laptop at an internet cafe but he recently got broadband and a phone line put in and bam! he got a letter from Paramount, Dreamworks and Columbia within a week stating that they had collected information that he was using illegal backups and they listed the titles of four the Netflix copies he'd played within the last week.

Yes I understand that, but what I am saying is that if someone wanted to do then if they had a PC that never had contact with anything no internet no phoneline or network cables, just a PC solely for backing up DVDs and a DVD player that never connectes to a phone line or satelite reciever with a phoneline and only made a select few backups of a friends movie and never lent his backups to anyone or told anyone he even had backups and used the select few for personal entertainment only.

Also Neph is that is true about netflix then i got a friend that will be in trouble he has like 70 DVDs that he copied from netflix and I told him that it was a risk doing something like that, so I wouldnt doubt if it was a matter of time before they did anything to him. As for me I only have like 3 DVDs that I backed up off of another friend but if thats all very true maybe I will get rid of them and just keep my backups.

I just copied 3 from Netflix about a while ago and I have copied 3 from Hollywood Video. Man, this burning isn't all that if doing that wasn't legal. So I'm stopping from here, but I just brought 100 pack of blank DVD+R coming in. What a waste. So then what if u play it on a DVD player only? Do they still catch u for that?

didn't you know you can send info over the hydro lines. thats how they can spy on you even when not connected to the net or phone. cd/dvds have an embedded program to send thru the electrical lines, so if want to use computer better get a generator

The additional problem is that the original has been copied and when that one is played, it has the info on it that it was copied and includes the number ID of the computer that did the copy. That means your PC ID is out there floating around. All PCs have a unique ID number embedded in the BIOS memory.

When they come and ask the friend who made a copy or borrowed the disc, is he going to take the blame or give you up?

come one nephilim and ddp, you guys know very well that there has been a fullproof method for over coming the chips put in rental dvds to alert the authorities to illegal copying. you shouldn't keep this very important info from newbies.
ok jevo, heres the lowdown on how to backup rental dvds without getting caught. what you have to do is disable the chip implanted in the dvd's. there is only one way to safely and reliably do this. the chip is susceptable to intense, focused heat.
what you do is wrap the dvd in a papertowel, put it in the microwave, set the microwave to high for 3 mins. and there you go, chip disabled, and you can safely make backups.

What brand of paper towels were you using? I tried that and the dye fried and the polycarbonate came unbonded. Now my microwave is only fit for debugging DVDs and no longer useful for food. No more hot sandwiches, chili and beer. Well the cold beer came out of the frig, I still have that. ;) I guess I'll have to stick to using the soldering iron on those chips. They are hard to locate though, the way they hide them under the dye.

I already made backup and copy them. Does that still work? Is it save to put it in there? Mess up the disc at all? Yeah, I want to know what brand of paper towel too, don't want to burn down the house just for that.

i hate to say this "BUT YOUR ON CANDID CAMERA!!!!!!" don't do what we told you for the past 4hrs as you might burn the house down or fry the microwave. the microwave should have been the clue we were shit disturbing as you don't put metal & a disk has metal coating on it into a microwave oven.

You all forgot about the cookies kept in the temp files of your browser. It doesn't matter if your not connected to the internet at the moment, it will still show when you do. Also, they now Teflon coat the chips Balaam is talking about so the paper towel trick won?t work with what ever brand you use brobear and is now a thing of the past. The only sure way is to drill out the chip, copy the DVD, then patch the hole just drilled with clear nail polish and shavings from a DVD that you don't need anymore.
