    Hi guys, I've looked for over an hour for the answer to this. So hopefully you can help.

    I only have a CD writer and want to make copies of my DVDs if I can.

    My wee baby boy has killed 3 of my DVD movies so far (much to my displeasure) and I have heard I can make copies of the DVDs onto standard CDs.

    Is this possible? And if so, what programme(s) should I use. Hopefully they are freeware (Grin)

    Thanks

    Scott

    A) Yes m8!
    You would use DVD Decrypter (or SmartRipper), DVD2SVCD and CCE (Cinema Craft Encoder), TMPEnc or Canopus ProCoder (encoders). I backup dvd2svcd all the time and find CCE to be the fastest and most reliable of the 3 encoders. All the above is free software [bold] except [/bold] Cinema Craft Encoder. Jump on a p2p file sharing client and search for the program. I have a nice guide and if you need I'll gladly post. Encoding time can be [bold] long [/bold] if you have a slow processor. D2SoBrA 2.44 will speed up the encoding times and still prouce superior video playback. Does your home dvd player support svcd (mpeg2)? Look for a "PBC" (Play back control) feature on your remote or your home dvd player. If it's there then your dvd player will play svcd.

    Guide is a little outdated m8. Use burnatonce(freebie burning application) to burn bin&cue file format.
