Hi all Just popping back to let you know that I have been refunded by international.com for DVD X Copy Platinum Version 5. Once I actually get the refund in my account, I will see where I go from there. PS - I have got the trial version of CloneDVD2 at the moment and am testing it out to see if it is what I want. Will post back in due course to let you all know how I get on. Any responses, as always are welcome and will be gratefully appreciated. Thanks to all once again. Regards
Happy37 your def. best off doing the movie only with CloneDVD 2 less compression means better picture quality .iam sure you will like the program lots better than x copy
@Happy32 Glad to hear you got your refund. As aabbccdd stated you will like CloneDVD it is a very versatile program. I just used it to split a series disk, made an iso of the files, and output to my HD so I could burn them at a later time with whatever program I choose. I really love this program.
test this program out..info posted per baldbear its being tested now with a movie called:Grudge got it copying The Grudge right now, so far so good. Using it without AnyDVD running. Update:Got a good copy of the grudge, going to try Hitch next LAST UPDATE PER BALDBEAR:I got a good copy of Hitch, just the movie, no extras, using shrinkto5 Program : ShrinkTo5, Version : 1.5.2 OS : Windows 98/Me/2000/XP Rating : 4.5 out of 5 Description : ShrinkTo5 is the new, powerful and fast DVD copying engine.

ANOTHER CLONEDVD2 FAKE,watch what ye buy. CloneDVD 3.6.1.0 CloneDVD - Worldwide most popular DVD movie backup utility http://clonedvd.net/ The real clonedvd2 web site,at version 2851 http://www.slysoft.com/en/download.html cheers
I use DVD x Copy Express it works great with AnyDVD running in the background. I like the simplicity of DVD X COPY. So just used DVD X Copy and ANYDVD together and they will copy movies with the protections
ireland Have downloaded and used shrinkto5 and found that it works, yet at first attempt the quality of the encoded video is blocky. Will see if the program is updated and use it again to see what happens. Thanks
Happy are you using GOOD blank media?? as in Taiyo Yuden ,Verbatim or Ritek(ridata) and burning at 4X is important also that may help your problem
aabbccdd Thanks for your reply - I ONLY exclusively use Verbatim media (as endorsed by Creaky and Kivory666 on these forums!!!) - big thanks to them for myself learning more about GOOD media... I use Verbatim's DVD+RW's 1-4 speed discs and Verbatim DVD+R DL 2.4 speed discs for my Dual-Layer burns using DVD Decrypter. Any other suggestions and ideas appreciated. Thanks
Just used Xcopy ver. 5 and ripped Lords of Dogtown, with AnyDVD in the background it came out fine. On its own Xcopy could not get further than 43% and errored out.
I use DVD X Copy Plat 4.0.3.8 myself, although when XSoftware bought thier technology from 321 Studios, I bought that one as well. Really the same software but newer version. Both work great if you have DVD43Free running in the background. I haven't been able to NOT copy something yet, including new movies. Edit: I use ONLY verbatim inkjet printable DVD's... just cause I'm addicted to the brand and printing on them using my Epson R200 hehe
Just to add my 2 cents: I am using DVD XCopy v5, and it works fine except that the preview function doesn't work. I caontacted tech support and they said that they are already working on it and the update will available for free on their website. Theu said it should be about 2-3 wks.
@fincab Thanks for the info, the preview does not work on mine. It works okay on the old 321 Xcopy but not this one.
arniebear There is a way to turn v5.0.0.13 in to a ripper free program and using anydvd version 5.4.4.1 to be able to copy all sony movies. as dvd43 is causing some problems on xp.when tryinf to use it. i did inform international the owners of v5 on how to do that.
@Ireland Thanks but I have been using AnyDVD, tried DVD43 on my old computer way back and it caused some major system problems. AnyDVD worked well for LODT with Xcopy ripped and burned the whole movie without a glitch, came out really good.
