I'm a long time user of DVDXCopy. It made acceptable copies after extensive prep of the computer, but it wasn't perfect. Tried recently to backup a copy of Narnia by WD. It wouldn't work so bought the new DVDnextCopy. Had to fudge a license number to get lower price as orginal license crashed in their auto reply system. Downloaded after market decoder with no problem. Made a total of six coasters before I asked for a refund. Bought on Friday, gave up on Saturday and requested refund Sunday morning. Couldn't copy entire Video, cut out at end. Early in video it repeated a 5 sec portion.
Ireland is correct. Clone DVD made a flawless backup without computer prep. I just purchased.
I had the same experience with DVDNEXTCOPY. It's too bad, I really liked their other products. Clone works really well, and FABDVD is OK. I still use the platinum version of DVDXCOPY and get good results.
I have been having real good luck with "1 Click DVD" since my last post. Got my money back from DVDNextCOPY, they put the money back on my card in 4 days. Their guarantee is good.
I also tried 1click but it did not work well for me. My copies would always skip and not playback on my dvd player. =(
DVd next copy fixed that though so I am happy.
i do not know where your coming up with how good dvdnextcopy is good software,and the other software is not working for you.
i am the original beta tester of that software..and had a team test it out,the program is full of bugs and written very poorly...
and will work on some computers..will not work on windows 2000.
quite a number had to restore ther computers to get rid of the software..
the best part i gave them free activating keys to try the program.
if you have AnyDVD installed or CloneDVD or any other burning software it has to be remover so that dvdnextcopy will work.
per dvdnextcopy
This is a list of programs that will or can cause issues when using next copy.
Check to see if you have any conflicting programs. This is a list of software that can possibly interfere in the burning process:
InterActual Player
PC Friendly Player
Nero INCD
Hp-DLA
Direct CD
NewDotNet domains
Gator
OfferCompanion
Also, DVD copying software can sometimes conflict with the software:
Clone dvd
DVD Cloner
Nero 6 or 7
Roxio 6,7,8,
Shrink
Decrypter
DVDFab Decrypter
DVDFab Platinum
1 Click DVD copy
DVD Wizard Pro
ICopyDVDs2
DVD95Copy
DVD to DVD Copy
Xcopy9
123CopyDVD
If you have any of those installed, you should consider disabling or uninstalling those and reinstall our software and try our software again.
Here is the free way of making perfect backups:
1) DVDFab Decrypter - this will break the movies encryption while ripping the movie to your HDD
2) VobBlanker - Not always needed, but it will get rid of any protection that DVDFD left behind. VobBlanker also allows you to blank,replace,cut and strip titles.
Use RipIt4Me. I do not know anything about ripit4me so I will leave you with the excellent guide by arnibear. You can also download it from the same link
The other way $$$$$ the best programs out, CloneDVD and AnyDVD
AnyDVD works in the background to automatically remove the copy protection of a DVD movie. All you have to do is start up AnyDVD and continue using your normal compression engine, whether it's shrink, recode or CloneDVD, It's that easy.
Before you pay for this excellent program you have a 21 day trial
all I am saying is it works great for me. maybe it didnt work for you but it also works great for all the people I have recomended it to. I tried other programs and none worked as well as dvd next copy. So i am happy with my dvd next copy and i wont buy those other ones.
