Clone DVD2 does not offer the option to change booktype within its program, so you have to do it with another program first. I do it with DVDdecrypter or imgburn.

Once you have changed the burner with these programs the burner does not care which program is doing the burning.

Here is how:


Bit setting in DVDdecrypter will change the format of your DVD+R media to DVD-ROM which will make it more playable in standalone DVD players. Follow the following images through the sequence. (Remember to have blank media in the drive)

Click tools>drive>Change book type



Or instead of the above you could do this:



At the next window you select the drive tab that identifies your burner:



Here you select the media type that you want to book type.



Now you select the change that you want to make, in this case change to DVD-ROM



Click on the change button and you will get the success screen!



Click OK and you are good to go. Remember this will NOT work for DVD-R media.

This setting should remain in effect until you shut down your computer. I also perform this process prior to burning a backup in CloneDVD2 and it works!

I hope this helps.

ive read this on another post. "I get far better burns buring x16 media at x16 or x12 than at x4. You should really burn at or near the speed rating of the disc." Would I have problems with pixilization and freezing even if i was buring at 1x?

There are many variables to this issue. Burner, media, speed, target size. The general rule is that you can burn 1/2 of the rated speed. There are others here that can answer this question better than I can. I generally burn at 4x but have done a couple at 6x with equally good results.

I think that media is critical. Use the best for the best results. I think that a 1x burn on 16x rated media is not necessary. I would burn it at 4 or 6x.

Get Taiyo Yuden, Verbatim, Maxell.

Everyone has been so helpful and I turly appreciate it....I have another question and I am not sure if this is the right forum to ask it in...if not, please forgive me and point me inthe right direction...

Can soem of you recommend a good external DVD burner? I purhcased a LG (Life's Good) but not sure if I should use that one or purchase one that many have had great success with...or...is the LG one good? The model number is GSA-5163D. It has Tri-DVD formats DVD+ and - RW and DVD-RAM as well as a IEEE1394 and it is USB 2.0..although the computer I have does nto have the 2.0 port....

Please advise...

Thanks again!!

DVDRipGuy,
After you start up CloneDVD, Click top box, Copy DVD Titles, Pick correct DVD video file, Make sure the "Preserve Menu" box is unchecked, continue as you normally would from here. I use it this way and it will start the movie as soon as you put it in your player, just as you wanted.
