Recoding quality test (DVD2One/DVD Shrink/Nero Recode 2 etc) http://dvd.box.sk/articles8.php?stranka=2
Hiya Guys, Have a look at this thread, with particular attention to brian100's post: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/1/74410#385609 I too have feelings of suspicion with respect to the findings/conclusion. Have Fun...
herbsman, Thanks so very much for that comparison link - I've got in my "Favorites". I can see the difference at 200% - 250% but how large a screen would that be when I play my DVD ?? Sorry all but I have no intensions of showing my DVD's on a Drive-in Movie screen - All my stuff, shown on a 65" TV looks the same as the original - Maybe it's the difference between Verbatim and Memorex, I don't care - What is the purpose of this discussion ? Really - what is the application that we should be concerned about ? Enlighten the ScubaPete, Please - (Dusting off my Digital camera, waiting for the herbsman / grogey spanking scene - still waiting all alone in the purple room - the TV is nice though, I watch my DVD’s on it. Lol)

Yea, I bought the vast majority of them (I pick up new ones every week), my friends and family know that they can always buy me gift certificates for the Video store - Maybe I didn't understand the question, Ya think I can go around in my wheelchair and steal stuff off the shelves ??
Hey guys and gals. I've been watching the discussions. The link to the comparisons was very interesting! I borrowed Intervideo DVD Copy off a mate to see what it is like. I notice it doesn't support encrypted files when I try copying straight from dvd to dvd. I also tried importing the decrypted files (DVD Decrypter) but it said it didn't support then either. I do I need to edit them somewhere orrr....? Has anyone tried this? caio caio
Pinnicle Instant Copy should be reported to Trading Standards for misuse of a product title! INSTANT COPY? More like EVENTUAL COPY! Having said that, it does compress very well, but takes far too long. As long as you have decrypted your dvd first to remove CSS this prog is happy as anything.
someone will correct me, but I think Intervideo DVD copy and Pinnacle Instant Copy (ahem) are one and the same.
if anyone has tried all these please let me know.i use shrink and recode. i have no problems except my dvd player (samsung s222) wont play them. if there is a program that can backup a dvd with superb quality let me know...thanx
heres how it goes DVD Shrink and DVD2One offer the same compression quality, but heres how it goes. DVD2One is VERY VERY fast, (like 15 minutes to shrink a movie) and is super easy to use, but it COSTS MONEY. DVD Shrink is more complicated, has more features, but is VERY SLOW (like an hour to an hour and a half) but its FREE! i would recomend both programs, buy DVD2One for copying, but download shrink for reauthoring a dvd.
I've had great success with DVD Shrink and see no reason to use DVD2One. I've also had great success with CloneDVD 2 and Pinnacle Instant Copy 7.0& 8.0. Shoey
The outlaw I am afraid to say that they arent the same product. At this moment in time Intervideo dvdcopy appears to have a bug or 3. Read the link below for details. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/77631
DVD2One gives better video quality than DVD Shrink IMHO... I really wouldnt want to use anything that now took like 45mins to over a hour to compress , as some do! I concur ;-)
herbsman, u confuse me osn what u said about using dvd2one for copying and shrink for reauthoring. why use 2 seperate products when shring does both?? i'm a lil slow speed me up.
