I HAE BEEN TOLD THAT I CAN'T COPY IT BUT THE COMPANY THAT FILMED IT DOESN'T EXSIST ANY MORE. I TRIED TO COPY THE DVD USING NERO'S COPY DVD. THIS DIDN'T WORK. I TRIED TOBURN IMAGE BUT HAVEN'T DONE THIS BEFORE AND IT DIDN'T WORK . ANY IDEAS?
Use BurningROM or Recode2 (depending on length) just as you would for a commercial DVD if it is already in the correct format. If not, use Vision Express...
Just rip it to your hard drive with decrypter and burn it with whatever burning app you use. shrink it if you need to but i doubt that you will. PS you may want to turn off the caps lock some consider it not appropriate around these parts....
@ marvin10, Welcome friend...1st turn off the all caps (It's taken as shouting and against forum rules). If you do not have anydvd, do you have dvd43 or dvd decrypter. Just use dvd decrypter in file mode, then use your shrink or nero recode 2 to compress the movie then burn the files with nero burning rom. If you have anydvd (you can download a 21 day trial and see how awe-some this program is!). MovieDud
One thing is bothering me. No wedding photographer could afford the licensing fees for CSS copy protection. Is it possible that this is a Video-CD disk and not a DVD disk? Secondly, if it really is a DVD disk, and it does not have CSS protection on it, all the decryptors (AnyDVD etc.) mentioned are not necessary and may mess up or halt the backup process. Lastly, the original may be authored, by the wedding company, in an effort to prevent copying, in such an odd way as to be hard to copy with backup software. Best regards Whisperer
sorry . caps locks is a bad habit. i always forget to turn it off. i used dvd decrypter to burn it to my hard drive,but when i try to burn it to dvd it either fails at the lead in or at 9%. the video is 3.9 gb and should fit onto the dvd easily so i not thefile size is not an issue. i'll try to burn the .iso file with nero. thanks for the advice so far.
i tried using dvd shrink. it said it wasn't encoded and it was only 3.9gb, however it still failed to burn ant the lead in section. i've tried burning it as an image file but it asks me if it want to enable over burn and risk it damaging my dvd writer.
