movies on hard drive? help!

Thanks for all the great tips. I was successful at burning my first protected DVD. My question now is this...is the movie still on my hard drive. I thought that i saved it, but can't find it anywhere...help!

 

What ripping software are you using?

 

odds are, it was a temporary file that you've deleted. we need to know the software first to get an idea, though.

 

try and do a search on your hdd for files in excess of 500mb

I am using DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink.

 

Here is a little hint that many members use for dvd backups. Make a new folder on your HD and name it something like DVD WORK or DVD BACKUPs. Then save all your movies to that folder when doing a backup. You will always know where your files are when its time to delete them or if you need them again. Good luck.

@ brandyc

yes do like Jerry746 says...but put this new folder on your desktop. i did this and named the folder
ALL MY DVD WORK ...................

i don't lose it now

 

So, do you think that the movie is on my hard drive somewhere? I can't find it, but would it normally be there?

 

@ brandyc

first make you a folder on your desktop like said above.

maybe its still there, if you used Shrink it might still be there, go to C: drive and look for it

hi i just wanted to ask do why do you need dvd decrepter and dvd shrink? i thought that dvd shrink had its own dvd decrepter cause i just use dvd shrink and nero and thats all i need.

 

2 reasons: dvd decrypter has some strong decryptin capabilities to break protections that neither shrink nor nero (which has no such ability) can. also, it's free. nero definitely isn't. and, for a third reason, it can do games
