    Hi .. I know that afterdawn has a search engine and database for this, but if the movie is not in the list, how do you tell? I have had major issues trying to back up the Superman Box set. This maybe my problem I am having. (Maybe not) According to the database, Superman 1 is a DVD 9, but says nothing about 2, 3 or 4. Does anybody here know or know how to tell? I use DVD Decrypter, then DVD2ONE and then either Nero 6 or Record Now DX. DVD2ONE is not needed for a DVD 5, so what happens if a DVD 5 is ruin through DVD2ONE anyway? thanks ...

    Put dvd decrypter into iso read mode.

    This will display the info on the right hand side - and should indicate whether it is single or dual layer.

    If it is a dvd5 dvd2one will handle it fine - it will not compress if it is not needed.

    ANY dvd I do either dvd5 or dvd9 - gets plumbed through dvd2one, cos I know it delivers a fully compliant structure of files.

    **I only backup the movie and do not include the extras - I prefer the better quality I can get using dvd2one....

    Your having major problems with this I see....

    List down your:
    PC specs
    Burner
    Media
    Method
    What settings on recordnow DX using

    It's easy really - it coughs nine times when you put the disc in.
