Well, I was proud of myself as I burned my first back up with no problems......... I thought. After the burn, I put dvd in pooter and it worked, with sound, and I knew the test would be my stand alone player.
I put dvd on stand alone and it worked.......... I thought. Then I noticed sound was playing, but no movement. I figured that was just the way the original was, so I kept watching. Hhhhmmmm. Somethings not right.
I put the original in the stand alone to see if any different. At first, no, it was the same. Then I noticed.........hhhmmmm, no movement on the original either. And it acted weird. I couldnt go to different chapters, it would only fast forward to the next, but still no movement.
Is it possible to damage the original while burning?
Here was the process:
Backup DVD: Blue Man Group (Its a video concert)
Used DvdFab to rip to hard drive.
Then used Nero 6 to burn to blank DVD.
I think I damaged the original!!
One note to consider if this isnt possible:
It is a new DVD I just purchased.
One side of the DVD is stereo/Dolby 2.1
The other side is 5.1 sound.
In all fairness, I never watched the DVD from the 5.1 side. (Only cuz I just discoverd this just prior to burning) so I guess there is a chance it was defective from the get-go.
I turned the DVD over and watched the 2.1 side and it is different from the other side. There is movement right away after it starts.
Now I dont want to try burning the other side just in case I am somehow damaging it during backup process.
One other note: The menu showed up on my burn. I could navigate thru the sound options. After that, there was movement in the start, then when they should be moving and playing, only sound came out and there was a still picture.
I dont mind if I made a coaster on my first run, I just dont want to ruin my DVD's.
