I'm trying to help you answer that 2nd question, im browsing
apple.com and im pretty sure you can use that. IF not, there
are 219832130918 programs out there that I'm sure you can
use. Hope I was of some help.

No sorry, I got those copies out of SE Asia. Looks exactly
like the real deal, but they have whole factories there for
that kind of stuff so I guess that's not the kind of DVD
copying you were looking for

i think i figured it out - holding control & clicking on the
dvd icon while on the desktop gives you the option to
duplicate

only problem: the dvd i want to copy says it is 6.16 GB,
most (if not all) dvd-r's are 4.7 GB

plus it would take 2 hours to copy to the desktop, which
isn't too bad if i really wanted a copy, but just letting
you guys know

im on a mac btw

How does one fit everything off a 8gig dvd onto a 4.7gig?

Points: 18368 Status: Lurker | Show recordbag



you have to do 2 discks (if uncompressed) for a movie.

but sometimes you can get away with 1 disk, normally,

or you may just trim the extras adn shit and fit it on
there.

thats only for doub desnity discks

bringing this up again, once i've copied a dvd to my
computer, do i need to bring it to a dvd authoring program
before i burn it? or can i just copy the files to the disc
and burn?

for mac there is a tutorial including five freeware apps
who can help you... try google "mac dvd tutorial" or
something. I had it on my mac, but I have never used the dvd
for films yet...

Keep a look out for CloneDVD. It isn't released yet
but hopefully it will be as good as CloneCD.

I love DVD Decrypter. It was the first program that made
ISO files from DVD's. If the image is less than 4.7gb you
can fit on one disc, and it can record it for you. If not,
you'll just have to wait for dual layer dvd-r's to be
released or recompress the video to fit.

decryptor is good b/c most dvds are DVD9 and of course,
dvd-rs are DVD5

so you can squeeze it onto 1 dvd, but fuck that

if im gonna watch my dvd on the plasma, i aint sacraficing
quality.

i dont care if i have to make 2 dvds for 1 movie.

Are they ever gonna sell DVD9's? I heard that even if you
could get one, you'd need a new dvd burner to record one.
