My problem is not burning the movies it's how long it takes. I tried all different types of speeds and it just doesn't matter...the whole burning process after i use the decrypter takes at least 3 to 4 hours...what can i do to speed up the process????

ok, first I have a few questions:

1) what DVD burner do you have? What are your computer specs?

2) What media are you using? Is your media rated at a fast speed?

3) Have you tried using other DVD burner software?

I highly recommend DVD Shrink you can find it and an execellent guide for it here at Afterdawn. The link to DVD Shrink is:

the DVD Shrink guide is here:
http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/dvd9_to_dvdr_with_dvd_shr...

3) Are you doing anything while the DVD is burning?

DVD Burning is a very CPU consuming task, I HIGHLY suggest that you do NOTHING while burning DVDs. Just let your computer sit and burn the DVD.

4) Last question, is there a place in your burning program that says what speed its going to burn at? If so, try increasing that number.

EDIT (by Pop_Smith): Added a question

Also, along with all the good questions asked above, make sure your DMA is enabled for your drives. Here is a guide

your questions were very helpful but the problem was in the types of dvd's i was using. I stopped using DVD-R and started using DVD+R. The difference was amazing. I saved at least 3 hours.
