i have dvd x copy but i have a problem after it finishes reading the disc when i go to burn it gets a microsft error??? windows xp 2.4 ghz sony vaio pioneer 104,200gb hd
First problem, Your using DVDXCOPY. I believe you may need to download a patch from there site to update the software.
If you want a better way by using free software downloads, let me know. It is easy and you will be able to copy allot more movies that DVDXCOPY thinks are to big to fit on disc.
To the both of you. I got this guide after trying many after many guides. I have found that it is the easiest guide to follow. Good luck and let me know if you have any problems. First download these free software downloads: You can get them here or www.doom9.net DVD Dycrypter 3.4.1.0 IFOEDIT 0.95 Nero 5.0 Insert the movie you want to copy into your dvd rom tray and load DVD Dycrypter Choose "Mode/ISO/READ R". This will let you know if the DVD is a 1 layer or 2 layer disc(DVD5 or DVD9). If it is a 1 layer it will fit to one DVD+R and read my DVD5 guide for details. Now choose "Mode/File F". We will be ripping and burning just the movie. Decrypter will highlight the movie for you. You also need to rip the "bup" file for the chapter that movie is in and the main "VIDEO_TS.IFO and VIDEO_TS.BUP". You need to have all these files to burn a working disc. Example: VIDEO_TS.IFO VIDEO_TS.BUP VTS_01_0.IFO VTS_01_0.BUP VTS_01_1.VOB VTS_01_2.VOB VTS_01_3.VOB VTS_01_4.VOB Rip these files to your hard drive and when it is completed load your IFOEDIT095 program. Also make a new folder for your soon to be edited files. Call it something different than the exact name of the movie so that you can differentiate between the two folders. We want to take out all the audio streams that we don't need to make our files smaller so that it will fit to one disc. Click "open" and find your IFO file for the chapter (VTS_01_0.IFO). Now click "VOB Extras" and "Strip Streams". The default settings should work but also check off "Create New IFO Files". Make your destination folder is the one that you just created. Now click "OK". Now a new screen pops up and you need to check off the items that you want. I normally only check off the English 6 CH. because that is all I need. Now click "strip it". This may take about 45 minutes just like the original rip. When it is finished a box will say VOBpointers corrected. Click ok and close IFOEDIT. Reload the program and "open" your new chapter IFO file from your new folder. Now click the button "set VTS sectors". After this is done, you are ready to burn. Make sure that your new folder is less than 4.36 GB in size. If it is larger then you'll have to use a different guide to make 2 DVDs or compress the files. Now assuming that all has gone well, you can load your Nero software and insert your blank media. Click create a DVD/Other Formats/DVD-Video. Find your ripped/edited DVD files on the right and drop all the files in Nero's VIDEO_TS folder on the left. Check your settings and click burn. I used a +RW disc to make sure that my movies worked before burning to a +R disc.
I have tried this method. When I go to watch the dvd it will play about 2 chapters then when it hits the third one it resets to the begining of the dvd. I know I am doing something stupid PLease help. I have a 2100+ 256 mg ram 236 gig ultra 160 drives A sony dru500a with the 1.0f firmware patch The dvd player is a sony dav-s300 The media are sony dvd+rw and memrex dvd+rw Any help would be greatful. Thanks
Biggjoe, It sounds like there is a problem with an IFO file. Does this happen every time or just once and you gave up on it? Are you using the sony media or was it the Memorex? My friend has almost the same setup as you and he said the sony's worked great but the Memorex did not work. This might be a shot in the dark but maybe the patch that you loaded for your burner might be corrupt???? My same friend had to load his twice. He had a problem with (the sum of all fears) I believe it was doing the same thing. He is now burning with no problems after he re-loaded the patch. Hope this helps.
Thanks, dipstick! I'll give it a shot. I am also using memorex with the 1.0 patch. I will repatch it. BiggJoe
sorry for last post. I have tried memorex and sony dvd+rw. I called sony and they said that it was the media. I told them that I was using there dvd+rw and they said to try a dvd+r. I tried to repath the dru500a and that produced the same results.
Can someone plz give me a tutorial for nero 5.5.10.0. I've been using all kinds of programs it's driving me crazy!! All i want is to be able to copy dvd's. By the way clone cd4 works very well in copying cd based ps2 games. Thanks for any info.
This is the best to a sure copy DVD Dycrypter 3.4.1.0 IFOEDIT 0.95 Nero 5.0 Insert the movie you want to copy into your dvd rom tray and load DVD Dycrypter Choose "Mode/ISO/READ R".
