i have tried to copy the last samurai and never end up with the movie on the dvd -- the disk has a video_ts and a jacket_p folder - and the dvd i end up with has a video_ts and a audio_ts folder -- the movie does not end up on my copy dvd - it looks likes it there and i press play movie - but what plays is track by track with the movie director talking about each part of the movie - but not the actual movie - it takes a long time to copy and has all the chapters etc. -- i used clonedvd2 and tried it with only the dvd files and the whole disk -- also tried with preserve menus and without and end up with the same thing on each dvd i copy - i havnt a clue whats wrong - i also tried dvdxcopy express and that had a hard time making a copy -- i dont think it likes dvd- media or any media thats not blank to begin with - thats from my experince - anyone can explain to me why this is happening and how i can copy this movie - other movies copy fine with clonedvd2 - i also have region free which works great - thanks
Hey first off i would just go get dvd shrink but it sounds like your just not adding the right chapters to me. sorry dont know much about the software your using. Id recomend dvd shrink. Good luck
hi expresso just copyed that movie with clonedvd2 and works fine. done whole movie with extras. used DVD Decrypter to rip. good luck
hi - i am new to this - so i am not sure what excatly i am doing wrong - i though using clonedvd2 -- is all i would need - i done many movies that way and had no problem - why would i have to use dvd decrypter first? and then use clonedvd2 ? i never done it that way - and if i use dvd shrink - how would i copy it to my dvd - these are the programs i have - i have dvdxcopy plantum - and it works fine sometimes and then sometimes it dont - i also have dvd region free which works great in the background - and i have clonedvd2 - i have dvd shrink and decrypter - but just not installed on my computer - i didnt want to install so many programs and then may have problems with so many installed at once - i also have nero 6 express - which came with my computer - but its not configured with dvd region free -- so i could only use it after i make a copy once and use the copy to make another if i need it - i am not sure how to add it to the dvdregion free program and have it connected when i start nero 6 express -- so from what i understand - i should try using either dvd shrink or dvd decrypter first - and then burn it to disk ? i never done it that way - but i try it on the next movie i get which gives me trouble - but i still dont understand how clonedvd2 does not copy the movie ? thanks for any help -
try dvdxcopy platinum. or a ccd decriptor & nero. its perfect if you can afford it . but beleve me I've had only 2 problums with it. 1 theres a copy warning but you can bypass that. search on google for 321 gone, simple huh. 2nd is I never can keep enough dvdrws on hand. I my self have over 200 movies . encoding 1 by 1 an 2-6 hours & an hour of editing aint fun , best about nero is it copys your movie fast. and the qoulity with platinum is surperb. as for free programs , try dvd2one or dupdvd & a decriptor.
thanks for the input - i just stopped using clone2 and xcopy - xcopy gave me alot of problems - and didnt like dvd-r disks for some reason - i have a nec 2500a dual - so its not my drive - anyway i started using dvdshrink and works great so far - and its fast - the same movie with dvdshrink comes out good and with clone2 - it dosnt pick up the movie - just the document part - even if i copy the whole disk - dvd shrink works great - so far - so good thanks -
thats cool. cant figure why xcopy won't work for you. oh well , at least there is more than 1 way to reach the goal, YES ,to each his own. hey goodluck , (may the force be with you!!).
