Hey Ruger,

I just made a backup of Deuce Bigalo, yes it has all that new sony crap on it but, the updated DVD43 cut right through it...

Like a hot knife through butter!! HE HE

timberlou,

If it plays on your computer it probably can be copied, so go for it..

I have done this with a few of the ones that I stuck a label on.
Sometimes it's very hard. I had to set DVDDecrypter in the agressive mode and spent a lot of time changing between drives, etc. but was able to recover most of them. The ones I couldn't recover, went in the trash...

Those TY?s should work fine. A lot of the guys on here swear by them. I personally have not used the TY, I only use Verbatim 16x, inkjet printable but you should be OK.. Let us know how it goes?

Go here:
http://www.cdcovers.cc/

Do a search under DVD Covers for "The 40 Year Old Virgin"


Use 40 not forty.. And remember numbers come before letters so it will be near the top of the list.
I just got it today...

Another good cover site is Http://www.covers.to/ . They generally have a wide selection, most are high quality scans. When you type in the movie name do not include "the" if that is the first word in the name. For example use "Island" rather than "The Island". At cdcovers.cc you have to use "The" as the first word if that's how the name starts.

Ok,

Stick on labels are bad. Are even the full face matte and photo labels sold by Neato bad also. I thought being full faced labels and using the applicator that they would always be centerd.

As for using a Sharpie marker, will any Sharpie do ??

Thanks...

ANY label is BAD! I been there, done that and got the T-shirt... Plus about 200 disks with labels that won't play...

A Sharpie or any marking pen with a soft point.. The hard points will mark the media coating, through the disk and screw it up...

2old did you ever try to copy a dvd to a cd just wondering how it works

@timberlou,

Yes, I copied Fantastic 4 no problem. Unless I run into a problem disc, I only use DVDShirnk with AnyDVD running and burn with Nero.

I simply place the Movie in my DVD Reader and a blank Verbatim in my Burner and tell Shrink to burn with Nero. NO Fuss, NO Muss, and a quality disc pops out?..

Yes, I have copied Movies to CD using IntervideoDVDCopy in DivX but the quality is lower than whale crap! Think about it, you?re not really compressing a 4GB movie to fit on a 700MB disc, what your doing is cutting, and deleting 1?s and 0?s and what you?re left with is not very desirable???..

Hang in there, play with it and after several hundred coasters you?ll find the right combination and technique, just like I did??.LOL

@timberlou,
I don?t usually make changes that were not meant to be. I?m getting 2Old for that Geek crap and I feel like ?if it?s not broke, don?t fix it.?
I prefer the Full Screen over the Wide so, I always buy the full screen version or one that has both..
My Fantastic 4 is the Full Screen and I just got Sky High and Bad News Bears today and both are Full Screen.
BNB can be backed up using DVDShrink Only, with a burner of course, and SH has to have a decrypter running; either AnyDVD or DVD43 will work.
I personally like AnyDVD over DVD43 because it updates much sooner.
It took 4 months for DVD43 to update this last time.

@timberlou,
Ihave been able to get Full Screen in just about everything I have got for a long time now. Most of the places here are carrying both..

If you have AnyDVD, that's the way to go....

Happy Burning.

2old,
I have many back up movies with stick on labels on them. I watched one and it played fine in my standalone DVD player. I then tried to make a copy of it using DVD Decrypter.

I used my DVD-Rom drive to read the disk but got read errors. How do you set DVD Decrypter to the aggressive mode ?

Also I ran DVD InfoPro Read test on the disk I just watched and it also showed up read errors, But when I just watched the movie there were no problems, Played perfectly.

@ofield.

Know the feeling bud, I have screwed up more Discs with labels and then tried for hours to recover them. Sometime YES, and then sometimes NOT!

Try this:
In Decrypter go to Tools -> Settings

Then set the following:
on the General Tab:
Options ? Removal Method ? Aggressive

File Mode Tab:
Options ? Remove PUO?s (IFO and VOB)

ISO Read Mode Tab:
Options ? Remove PUO?s (IFO and VOB)

CSS Tab:
CSS Cracking Mehod:
Brute Force -> IO Key Exchange
On Failure ? Yes

I/O Tab:
Options ? Ignore read errors.


Set Decrypter as above and then try in both your DVD-ROM drive and also in your Burner. Sometimes a Burner can read a labeled disc better than a ROM drive.
Also be sure to Rip in the File Mode. As it reads the files you can tell by watching the right window if it completes it or not. If it gets stuck on one, just make a note of it and skip it. After you have ripped all you can, change the disk to the other drive and rip again. But this time only Highlight the files that were skipped on the first rip. You can do this by holding down the ctrl key and clicking on the files that you skipped one at a time. Then rip it to the same folder that you used for the first rip and you?ll be adding to the list of files that you already have.

Sometimes you have to go through this procedure several times before you?re successful. Just keep changing the disc back and forth to the opposite drive and try again. If your lucky you will end up with all the files in a folder and you can BURN IT!

I have written on the wall above my computer ? NEVER USE A DAMNED PAPER LABEL!!!!!!!!?

Lots of luck with your recovery?


Edit: for those that use paper labels and say they cause no problems:
Some drives will play disc with labels but most won't, most DVD Players won't but a few will, most PS2's will but a few won't.

In my case, I was labeling Memorex Disc. You wonder why my wife don't want me in the kitchen?
