Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - pan - 08-10-2006 I have 2 computers with DVD burners, yet still can't copy DVD's becasue of software problems... I even recently bought "Cute DVD Burner" off a site in the US and installed it, but still doesn't work! What are people using and where do they get it from? Re: Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - braddo2264 - 08-10-2006 Hi Pan, To copy dvd's you actually must shrink them first . Get a free version of dvd shrink from the net. Just google it. It may take a bit to find a free version where you dont have to join the site. Braddo Re: Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - braddo2264 - 08-10-2006 Hi pan, Found a free site for you follow this link majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4020 Hope it works Braddo Re: Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - Diablo - 08-10-2006 Another program is "dvd ghost", I was using dvd region free, however it went missing. DVD Ghost is relatively easy to find on Google, and comes free. If you have dramas finding a free download, when you type it into Google, make sure you type shareware as well. Also, you need to find out if you need + or - CD's. I used to have problems until I found out my burner uses - (minus) CD's. Hope this helps. Cheers, Terry Re: Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - pan - 08-10-2006 Braddo, I just clicked away and found something on this site: www.mrbass.org/dvdshrink/ Diablo, how could you figure out if you need + or - ???

When I bought my first batch of CD's, I just grabbed a pack off the shelf. When I went to use them, they didn't work, so I called up a mate who is a computer boffin. It was then that I found out that there are two types of CD's, plus + and minus -. I had picked up a pack of minus. When I tried a + CD, it worked fine. I don't know what the difference is between them, or why one does or dosen't work. Cheers, Terry Re: Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - BUSGO - 08-10-2006 Just to avoid the confusion - Pan is asking about DVDs here not CDs. BUT the reason for the + or - or +- is the type of laser format that the device uses to perform the burn. A CDR+ will not burn CDR- disks and so on. Most of the more recent burners are universal and will burn both. If you are new to burning, it is always best to use a slow speed burn until you prove that your hardware and software can cope with the faster speeds. I suggest starting at about 16 speed and work up to faster if your devices are compatable. Rgds BUSGO "TAKE MY ADVICE" I'm not using it anyway! Re: Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - Xhiler8r - 08-10-2006 pan i use a product called clone dvd but with this porgram you also need to run Any dvd so it can recognise all zones Cheers Bill The man without a bike Re: Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - Diablo - 08-10-2006 Thanks for the explanation Busgo. When I typed CD, I was also refering to DVD. To the uninitiated like me, they all look the same. Cheers, Terry Re: Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - Xhiler8r - 08-10-2006 pan email me at williamdivic@optusnet.com.au I will send you clone DVD and then I will send you Any DVD run it execute it and it has a key Gen there also so happy burning mate but do not under any circumstances upgrade it or you will have to pay for it Cheers Bill The man without a bike Re: Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - pan - 08-10-2006 I downloaded DVD Shrink and it seems to have worked. Who would've guessed that all I needed was a shrink! Thanks Bill. I'm just downloading Nero to be able to burn it (189MB... 4 hrs). If it doesn't work out I'll email ya... Re: Copying DVD's - HELP!!! - BUSGO - 08-10-2006 @PAN. Some say SHRINK, some say CLOWN, - err I mean CLONE. Rgds BUSGO "TAKE MY ADVICE" I'm not using it anyway! Re: Copying DVD's - DONE!!! - pan - 09-10-2006 Finally! I figured out I need DVD+ The DVD- didn't work on my computer. Now I can finally copy DVD's for all those people I've promised them to... 1hotBusa, Franko, 01Busa, etc...
