OK it sounds like it's picking up the correct directory if it's in the registry entry.
Right. now can I ask you do do something for me.
Firstly go to your C:\Documents****\Name***\Localsettings\Temp folderand delete all the junk that's in there (if any) - It's not needed. Leave this folder open.
Now start Xpress and start to backup a DVD.
you should see a folder called DVDXPRESS appear. If not, what is the name of the folder that does appear?
I think this may hold the answer as to why it does not work for you. Usually XPRESS makes a folder called DVDXPRESS that is backs up the movie to. If my proggie cannot find this folder then it comes up with the error message you get.

Psi

OK have jest been looking my source code. There's something we are missing here....
The error message "This program is for DVD XCopy Xpress." only happens if it cannot find the path to the file? This is most perculiar.
You say the registry entry is there. The DVDXPRESS folder is created in the temp folder... Hmm Strange!!
Ok can I ask 1 more thing of you. Open the temp folder and start Xpress and start a movie back up, like you did last time. when the DVDXPRESS folder is created in the temp folder. double click it and have a look in there. You should see 2 folders AUDIO_TS and VIDEO_TS and an archive.txt text file.
If you double click the VIDEO_TS folder you will see the files that XPRESS is creating as it builds the structure of the DVD.
Can you confirm this for me?? If there's any differences please post them as well.
JaminG:
Thanks for you offer of help. Believe me trying the program and reporting it's success is helping me as well as you. Glad it works for you.

I have the Platinum version and in the registry it is different that the path you had in your previous post.
Instead of: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\321Studios\XPress\Settings
The Platinum path is:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\321Studios\Platinum\XPress\Settings
Hope this helps and let me know if you need anymore info!
Thanks again.

Many thanks for your very useful piece of info.
I'll incorperate that into the directory search over the weekend. (Have to work tonight and tomorrow :o( )
I am also thinking of adding a manual directory select as an "all else fails".
Granted it takes the one button simplicity out of the program, but I can make it pop up if the registry entry or the directory cannot be found.

PsiDOC, I love program. But can you write something that would get rid of the DVD-Backup thats already on a BACKUP. I'm trying to make another copy of some that I'll already had from way back when before I found your neat 321 Gone tool. So I'd like the copy my old ones to and get rid of the DVD Backup on them.
If I use Nero and just do a disk copy, what do I have to do to the DVD backup vobs so that it doesnt show up on. I tried just deleting them but that didnt work.
Can you help me out.
Thanks bud.

Hello PsiDoc,
Great gob... Works as designed and flawless on my system (win98se/Xpress)...
I viewed the watermark file that express puts on the DVD Copy, was told that it has a means of tracing what actual computer created the copy. The only ID that I can see is a bunch of 'Zero's", is the tracing thing a hoax (or) is there something hidden in that (or) another one of the files?
Thanks for enlightening me with knowledge!

Use a program called Smart Ripper...then just select the main movie...extract the VOB file onto yur computer..and burn it...no compressing or anything needed becuase it is already compressed..
Good luck..

DaaDoctor,
What you request is very possible to do using my program, but not in it's current form it is too rigid in where it looks for the necessary files. I had not actually thought about the concept you have thrown in the pot.
This is the theory..
Rip the copied DVD with smart ripper, then patch using my program with an added manual file selecter (to be programmed in) and then burn it...
As I said it's just a theory, but it may just work!!
I can see a busy weekend ahead!! lol ;o)
GoFish:
RE: Watermarking I 'm to be honest a little bit green on that subject. I have heared of it before, however not bothered about it because it does not affect my viewing of the DVD's I back up, whereas the DVD BACKUP screen does. If you can give me more info or even a link or two that explains the process, I'll certainly see what can be done about it
Regards,
Psi

Did the .VOB files appear in the VIDEO_TS folder or in the XPress folder? I am assuming in the VIDEO_TS because you report nothing weird.
Ok this is very strange... Without actually sitting in front of your PC to find out what is going on I am at a loss...
But I have a work around for you...
What I'll do is write in a manual directory select this weekend.
I think it's going to be needed for various reasons (See DaaDoctor's post).
After selecting the directory it'll be set for future use but can be changed if you decide to change the temp directory in Xpress.
How does that sound?
Regards,
Psi

I have had great success with DVD Xpress, I have backed up probably fifty/sixty movies. Now I would like to try this little program and get rid of the backup intro.
Thanks!

You were on the old version... lol
Now this makes sense.
If you got the message "Intro Removed (Movie Only Mode) 321 Gone will now exit" then it'll work.

No have not had chance to update it as of yet. As I said it'll be tomorrow before I get anytime to do some re-coding.
Just bear with me till sunday and from the info you have supplied (and a VERY big thank you for that) I think I can accommodate you.

ispy,
Yes subtitles make no difference in movie only or full disk DVD mode (so long as it's only a single language DVD in full DVD mode).
I am glad you got it sorted out mate :o)
Watch out for an update over the weekend ;o)
I anticipate adding the platinum Xpress version and a manual directory select if the directory cannot be found in the registry.
Multi language DVD's I am still collecting info on. SO no news there, I am sorry.
