For Newbies and anyone else interested in DVD "auto" copying software

my silent reverence! :)

but inside "euphorik" to learn! @TRILIGHT waiting for you ,master....i'm your follower! ;)

go here for all your newbie needs... EDIT: The links that were listed in this post were nothing more than the same information that is found here. Unfortunately, they were in a much more confusing format and requested donations so I removed the links.

Just so you know, this wasn't a jab at you, Tyris. It's just that many "newbies" do not understand all that is involved. They tend to think such software is akin to something like Easy CD Creator where they just "click a button" and end up with a perfect copy like with CD's.

You know, like DVDXCopy. Due out today, but they have problems they never anticipated (surprise, surprise).

@ TRILIGHT Yep, I know. I support what you're saying, so I just thought I'd give an example. Although, you're right, depending on how I interpret what you said, it could seem like an attack. :)

That's why I said "(at the time of this writing)". I have no doubt that something will come about eventually but it certainly isn't right now. What Tyris is working on is a script to automate other pieces of software. I'm sure he'll tell you himself how difficult this is to do. I wish him luck in his endeavors! As for an "all-in-one" package that makes things as simple as copying a CD on Easy CD Creator, it just isn't out there. Too many people that are new to the game get suckered in by certain companies claiming that something like this is available and it just isn't yet. When it is, (and it isn't a total HACK) I'll gladly sing it's praises. Even then though, I doubt it will achieve the level of quality currently found in the manual process using CCE for re-encoding. Just my 2 cents. ;)

Yes, I agree. Derrow is "GOD" when it comes to dvd!

i have it and love it...works awesome for my needs...guess its just a personal decision

hmm... who could be happier than you? Perhaps ME when I don't have to get my lazy ass off the couch in the middle of my movie to switch discs?? hehe ;) Anyway, just as an update for those paying attention and are interested, what this software does is span your disc across more than one DVDR. If that's what you're into, it will do it. However, I don't see why you'd want to spend money for this when such a task is so easily accomplished already by the freeware tools on this site. If you're a lazy ass like me and don't want to keep up with multiple discs just for one movie or don't feel like taking your arm from around your date (or whatever else you may be doing. hehe) in order to get up and go switch discs, then this still isn't the answer you're looking for.
