has anybody had trouble making copies of burned dvds ? i use nero 6 ..sometimes i can make copies and sometimes i cant ..it will come up with a reading data error...any suggestions from anyone
RUDMASTER, Are you using the "burn at once" feature with nero, if so try burning an image file to the HD you can use Nero or DVD Decrypter for this. Afterwards use the file on the HD as the source and you should be good to go. Another option may be IsoBuster, I have yet to use it but it tauts itself as a data recovery tool. I try not to remark on stuff that I have yet to try but that one may be worth looking into also?
how do you use the burn at once on nero?? ..i have never used this feature ..and this isobuster ..where do i go looking for it ? RUDEMASTER
i use a program called record now from sonics,this program will make a copy of any copied dvd, music cd,data cd or just about anything that is on cd or dvd disk.there are no complicated steps to follow,its simple.
RUDMASTER, "Burn at once" is the same idea as "Burning on the Fly", I said "burn at once" out of habit as that is how it reads in Nero Recode 2; basically there is no DVD structure created on your Hard Disk before burning there is less buffering as the data getting burned is from your DVDRead Device wich has limited read speed (mine is 8x). This can cause several writing problems including data loss due to an empty buffer. This is not a recommended way to burn disks; as I said earlier it is much better to rip files to the Hard Disk and then burn from there. #2......You can read about isobuster from here as I said I have yet to use it: http://www.isobuster.com/ Please forgive me as I haven't helped to many folks yet, but I should have asked you for an entire log file of the failed burn. Without it one can only speculate on your troubles and there are lots of possibilites such as you're using new media or something. [bold] If you post it be sure to edit out personnal info such as the Nero activation serial. [/bold] @permatex, I found RecordNow by Roxio, is this what you are refering to?
RUDMASTER I have no problems making copies of copies when I use quality media. The only times I've ever had a problem is on crappy media. For those I try Decrypter. What brand of media are this discs on?

rudmaster Download decrypter from AD. Here's a link: http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_rippers/dvd_decrypter.cfm Imho if Decrypter can't do it nothing can. I always use Decrypter on those hard to back up back ups. Make sure you clean off the discs first. Here's a guide for help on the hard to rip discs that can be used for your problem: http://www.dvdplusvideo.com/petesguide9.html Post back you results - good, bad or otherwise. Good Luck!
I agree with binkie7. If dvd decrypter won't copy it then more than likely nothing will. Open dvd decrypter, load the disc you want to copy, click on the mode tab, click on ISO, click on read, let it do it's thing, then load a blank disc, click on mode, click on ISO, click on write, click on the ISO MDS file you just created, let it do it's thing, your done. BTW are you putting stick on labels on your backups? These can cause problems. Mort
if you want to back up a backup i use ashampoo it works great takes about 9 min depending how fast your putter is. i have a p4 1.7 512 ddr 266 ram 4x burner aand i use unbranded media and it works just fine i have at least 700 burns with no costers and been doing this for 3 years.
well i have tried using dvd decryter on regular dvd movies with no good results .. but ill try with burned dvds ...now where is this ashampoo program and record now ?? RUDMASTER
