The Nero suite has a "Copy DVD" function that ought to be able to make a direct copy of the disc. Be sure to check the options so that "on the fly" is unchecked. That will force the files to be copied to a temporary file on the hard drive before being recorded back to the blank disc(s) and allow error correction to fix any errors that might occur. You can also select the number of copies you want Nero to make for you.

If you want to create a disc name for the copies, you have to take a few more steps; but the "Copy DVD" ought to work if you have compatible blank discs for your DVD recording drive.

it will copy the disc then when it goes to write thats when it stops saying it cannot write this type of file.this is what it said through the nero vision when after 4 hours it went to write file to disc it stopped saying avc/h-264 encoding.

Are the discs you are using DVD-RAM discs or DVD-R discs? The DVD-R discs and format should cause no problem, but DVD-RAM uses a different format. The Hitachi camcorder can use both DVD-RAM and DVD-R media. If the media are DVD-RAM, there are some additional steps that need to be taken.

A DVD-RAM video disc will play on a Panasonic or Toshiba DVD player but on very few others. DVD-R discs ought to play on all players that conform to the official DVD Forum standards.

We are still lacking some basic info.. turn auto play off for the dvd drive, then browse the disk like a normal dvd and report what you find please. Some camcorders have a really odd menu setup which they put on the disks.. we could be looking at divx files or just about anything.

Maybe give Nero Recode, DVD Shrink, or VSO ConvertX. You already have Recode ( You have Nero), DVD Shrink is free, the other is more expense. Hope this helps you out?
Burn On,
Russell

PS. Did your camcorder come with any software ( My little sister's did and no problems.
