well im new to burning and i have windows vista. so i got nero ultra and when i download a movie its almost perfect, but when i go to burn it on dvd( using a slower write speed) the movie has lots of glitches. is there something im missing? and how do i make a back up copy of my kids dvd movies before they get messed up?
I would use DVD Flick instead of Nero for avi conversions. Here is a guide. Burning slow can be as bad as burning too slow...I wouldn't burn 16X media any slower than 8X. The glitches can be due to either excessive compression or cheap media. There are a few other things that can cause pixellation, pausing and freezing...but those two seem to be the main culprits. I assume you are talking about backing up from a DVD now? Rip your DVD to HDD first using DVDFab HD Decrypter, then use Recode to compress (if needed) and burn to a blank DVD.
heres some info also first read on the forums theres plenty of answers dvd decrypter, dvd shrink, isn't updated anymore so they need the help of an updated ripper like dvd fab decrypter or anydvd for them to work. ripit4me was pulled from the sites but still works on most movies. heres that guide http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/360110 so you have several choices you can use dvd fab to rip dvd shrink to transcode and dvd decrypter or nero to burn ,this is all freeware. or you can use the easiest program out there clonedvd 2 + anydvd (free 21 day trial) This is my pic. you can download here http://www.slysoft.com/en/ heres some guides and software also http://webpages.charter.net/bacitup/ http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/183136 http://www.dvdplusvideo.com/Guides/Software.html http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=72022 remember to use good blank media like Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim burning no faster then 8x on a clean machine without other programs running while burning. updated firmware for you're drive/burners helps also http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_all.php good place to get blank media http://www.supermediastore.com/media1.ht...CFRd9NAodvxEjvQ
