If im using clonedvd with 2 pioneer dvd writters, is it any better or worse to copy 'on the fly' directly from one drive to the other, rather than reading the original disc, replacing it with a blank dvd+r then wriiting the image file to it?
Thanks

I don't think CloneDVD has the 'true' burn/copy on the fly option -which is reading from drive and writing to the other in real time.
Instead it rips/trascodes then when done starts the burn process.
So you're fine reading from one drive while writing to another. No need to just use the one drive to do both.

You are correct Binkie, Clone DVD rips, transcodes and saves to a temp file and burns from the temp file. I've never had a problem using one drive to rip, then the other drive to burn the disk. I think this is what you are referring to as "on the fly"?

No it doesn't matter, using two drives saves you from coming back to your PC to put a blank DVD in. So yes use two drives one to transcode and another drive to burn

Thanks guys.
I seem to remember one of the older versions of clonedvd used to have an actual 'on the fly' box you could check to copy straight from the dvd to your blank, actaully on the fly. But yes, on the latest version you cant do that as such
You see Im just starting to back up my dvds after a year or so away from this, so I hadn't actualy downloaded the lastest version before I asked the question.
Thanks again

Great description! I was originally under the misconception that using two drives, one to transcode and one to burn, was "on the fly" until ireland corrected me.
Clonecd does give an option to burn on the fly.

Burning "on the fly" might save some time, but it is also more prone to errors. It works better if both drives don't share the same I/O cable. There is very little margin of error when burning "on the fly", and just for a couple of minutes saved, I don't know if it is worth:

The case described by blivetNC with the info stored in a temp folder,sounds better.

jonesyuk-Heed the advice of the good folks who replied to your post ! They're experienced & would'nt steer you wrong ! If your really up on Burning on the Fly as you Call it - You can achieve that or something somewhat like it By using Anydvd and The Disc Copier Program in Roxio Easy CD & DVD creator 6 ! Nero Also Has a Disc Copier Program as well But I am not as familiar with it as I am with Roxio ! In either Case Though It helps if the original disc is smaller than the destination disc or atleast the same size in Gigabyte capacity - in other words DVD-5 original to DVD-5 Single layer Blank DVD DVD-9 Dual Layer original DVD to DVD-9 DVD+R DL blank ect... Otherwise you have to deal with Transcoding /Compression and the like and will end up having to rip ( cache the disc to your hard drive if only temporarily !)and as the other estimeed gentleman and lady said your better off just doing it the old fashioned way by ripping the Disc image/Iso to your hard drive 1st. You can delete it afterwards if you need the space on your ard drive ! Good luck jonesyuk & happy Burning

My Bostonian buddy hit the nail on the head with this one...CLonedvd2 will transcode to a temp file then burn then erase the temp file once done burning....this might not be the true meaning of burning on the fly but it is what we all refer to as burning on the fly.
like BlivetNC stated i also do 98% of my burns this way and have had nothing but great outcomes. you cant go wrong(in my eyes)doing it this way.
