hello

its been a while since ive backed up any dvd's and ive gone to do one tonight and i need a bit of advice please...

ive shrunk the dvd with DVD Shrink fine, ive saved it as a iso file and ive come to burn it onto disc with dvd dycrypter but the software does not exsist anymore.

so is the best way to burn through Nero? or is there a better software for burning?

cheers matt

ImageBurn dowload:

this program is great... made by the same guy who did DVDDecrypter and it's updated.

and then you can do Nero, of course. There are plenty more burning software around.

the burning speed depends upon the disk..... if it's an 8x disk burn at 4x.... usually half the rated speed of the disk.... here are more tips for you:

here are some guides for you:

http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/guides.htm

don't know what programs you have to use to burn your movies that are on the hard drive? here are some other programs that many members love and use all the time:

DVDDecrypter, download it from here:

http://fileforum.betanews.com/download/DVD_Decrypter/1011845169/1

Although this program is not updated any more it's one of the best free programs that does EVERYTHING and still works for older movies that are at least a year old or older. And even works with some newer movies that didn't put in the newer encryptions.
Use the guides that I gave you (above).

DVDFab Decrypter download it from here:

http://www.dvdidle.com/free.htm

when DVDDecrypter can't rip the movie to the hard drive(newer encryptions---the new movies) then use this program to rip to the hard drive.... it's free

AnyDVD & CloneDVD2 download it from here:

http://www.slysoft.com/en/

this is not freeware..... but it lets you have a 21 day trial period to use the programs and they work great on new movies and old and are updated often. So if new encryption come out on those new movies just released these programs will already have the updates!

Shrink download from here:

http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_...rippers/dvd_...

this is another freeware program that does many movies and you can reauthor a movie to the way you want it... good program for newbies

with the guides and these programs you should be well on your way to burning DVDs to your hearts content! enjoy........

some tips of the trade:

1. use good media will stop many problems you might run into. Verbatim, Taiyo Yuden, Maxell, Sony..... look for the ones Made In Japan. the exception to this rule is Verbatim.
2. burn at half the rated speed of your media (if the disk is an 8x media speed then burn at 4x). This will stop reading errors from your player.
3. Don't burn too close to the edge of the media. 4484MB is the max and on good media you can go as close as 4400.... to be sure I only go up to 4384MB just in case and I use Taiyo Yuden where I know my buddies go up to 4400 without any problems.
4. keep your firmware up do date..... this will make your writer recognize all the disks and burning speeds and other improvements with the software of your drive.

just some things to consider when burning DVDs..... there are many more things to learn but this is a good start! If you want to read more and learn more then this is a good thread to read:

Definitely DL Decrypter and ImgBurn. And learn to use ImgBurn because it's a great program especially if doing movies that are single layered. It builds the ISO and burns the ISO. You have to go in to burn mode manually it won't do it in one step but neither does Decrypter.

Also, if after you get everything working and keep your pc clean of crap, then with good media you can burn at 8X. I'm using 8X TYs and burning them (BenQ 1650)at 8X. No coasters.

Edit: From start to finish, a single layer DVD, back up time is under 15mins using ImgBurn.
