Ok im a newbie, and really confused about all the lingo for recording dvds. same thing with programs that do this and that. could someone explain what all these mean??? also, i thought dvd x copy platinum was the "dvd copying for dummies". that thing is a pain in the ass. ive tried the dvd shrink but it wont even let me get to pick a file off my comp. it wont even list them when i go to search...hmmm im willing to pay money for a reliable program that does "everything in one" so to speak. i have home videos and short films off my comp id like to get on dvd. and no, vcd quality is not acceptable. any help here much appreciated. thanks! steve
XCopy Platinum is for backing up dvd movies. Get Nero 6 Ultra There are different ways of burning... most depends on the format you have your files in. _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Dell 8250, Pentium 4 2.80GHz 1.5 GB RDRAM, 200GB HD TDK 840G, Sony DDU-1612 DVD-ROM XP Pro, ATI All-In-Wonder 9000 Pro Gateway 450, Pentium III 450MHz 384 MB SDRAM, 160GB HD NEC 2100A, LiteOn LTD-163 DVD-ROM XP Home, 16MB nVidia RIVA TNT[/small]
Hi, Maybe you can try the software named WinAVI video Converter http://www.winavi.com/video-converter.htm.
Well, for backing up dvd's, I personally use DVD Shrink combined with Nero. For putting files that are on your computer on a DVD, I would use what flip218 said, Nero 6 Ultra. These two programs have worked great for me so far. I started out using DVDXCOPY Plat., and still have it, I just use these two programs now and have much more success with them. Good luck, and let us know how it goes!
Hi, Actually, WinAVI Video Converter is a complete solution for video file converting and burning. I supports to burn files to vcd/svcd/dvd.
Rule 12 indeed, zjmedia -- virtually every single one of your posts has been to advertise that blasted WinAVI stuff ... you wanna advertise? Visit http://www.afterdawn.com/general/adprices.cfm
