I am a newbie to dvd ripping. I just got a dvd-ram from hitachi. I downloaded smartripper and spruceup. I have two question, one is there a step-by-step instruction somewhwere. Two does anyone know where I can buy dvd blank disc to record for a reasonable price.
Have fun. DVD-RAM doesn't work on any other drive than DVD-RAM -- stand-alone DVD drives don't support it, DVD-ROM drives don't support it, etc.
maybe you can help me. I would like to get something that will enable me to ripp dvd and ps2 games in one unit
I don't know anything about PS2 games, but DVDs I do know. Read through our DVD-R forum and you get the idea how the backup should be done (three different methods for three different cases). And really, DVD+RW or DVD-R recorder is what you need in order to backup your discs so that they can be used in DVD players.
dRD,in reading through the forums i found a thread under dvd burners. The item he was deciding to purchase is the same item I bought. Except the model I bought is for IDE. I was wondering if that person had any success. If so, is it possible to search for his threads. I think he mixed terms and called the machine a dvd-r, instead of dvd ram. The thread was started by mario10c, the machine is a Hitachi GF-2050. Or take a peek at the machine at Hitachi.com models GF-2050 or GF-2000 Thanks, for the ps2 site its great
Sadly dRD is right.. It's always sad when he is.. ;-) There's no way of backing up DVD-Video or PS2 discs with a DVD-RAM -drive. You can only read DVD-RAM discs on a DVD-RAM -drive.
