Tried to burn for first time

And i read somewhere you cant burn if it has more then 1 layer. Im trying to burn Bad Boys 1 and it has 2 layers. Is it possible to burn? What movie dosnt have two layers i think most of mine do. Anways i have the Shrink and dyciptor

 

all current dvds are dual layer and they can be copied on a blank dvd using dvd decryptor and shrink or some other program

To backup many newer titles you'll need something like AnyDVD as well.

thank you greatly

 

i had an error in the first phase. (When i was decripting). It came up at 2% and i hit abort and it kept decripting is that sipose to happen?

 

It depends what the error was?

 

when it was all finished it copied 77 files and skipped 2? what should i do?

 

Were you using Shrink or DVD Decrypter to decrypt? The files skipped may have been garbage files.

 

it wont copy and paste so here we go im typing it all out. (this usx lol)

Thats it and it did it at 2% and 98% please help me some1

 

it was when i was using Decriptor. Last night i used decriptor for first time and it never did that. When i wasted through 4 dvd's I deleted it. I didnt know what I was doing at the time. I was using shrik before decripting. When I did it that way last night I had no errors in decripting

 

I don't think BB1 had any special copy protections. It's an older title. Is this a new disk or an old one? Is it scratched or dirty?

Try using DVD Shrink to decrypt and see if you still get the error message.

 

so dvd shrink can decript on its own? Then whats the point of using decriptor? the disc is kinda scrachy but it decripted fine last night when i shrunk it first then decripted it....

 

i was going to try to shrink the files that worked but when i open files in the shrink program it couldnt find the files. I browsed the correct folder also. I know they are there cause i can see them when i go to them... Well ill read your responces in morning its 1am here i got to get some sleep.

 

should i be burning this with Nero or decriptor? would that matter.

 

ok thats weit in case iy helps i tried doing it with shrink like you said and i t stopped at 2 % with an error. Thats weird it worked fine yesterday awwww

 

DVD Decrypter is the best program for backing up DL disks bar none. It is also my burning program of choice.

Development of DVD Shrink stopped before development of DVD Decrypter. DVD Shrink was really only capable of overcoming CSS encryption, the original basic one. It is also the only free "shrinker" in existence to my knowledge. As content providers added new forms of copy protection, especially structural protection, DVD Shrink was left behind as a decrypter/ripper since development had ceased. DVD Decrypter continued to be updated and could defeat these schemes. Thus people started using DVD Decrypter to rip their disks and then DVD Shrink to transcode and compress them and, dumping out an iso file for DVD Decrypter ot another program to burn or having Shrink burn itself with Nero or Decrypter.

Also many people use DVD Decrypter to rip an iso file which they then mount with a virtual drive software like Daemon Tools to play on their computers. Different strokes for different folks so to speak. As I first mentioned above, DVD Decrypter is the ripper/burner of choice for backing up DL disks (in conjunction with AnyDVD).

Now development of DVD Decrypter has ceased and a commercial program, AnyDVD, has arrived to take he place of Decrypter as the all-around background decrypter. So people still use DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink, but with AnyDVD running in the backround. With AnyDVD running in the background, both Shrink and Decrypter see a region-free, unprotected disk.

I hope this clears up the confusion as to why various programs are used..

 

I'm thinking the problem is with the disk. DVD burners are sensitive to scratches and dirt. Standalone players much less so. Do you have another DVD drive (not burner) on your system you could use to see if that drive can read the disk without error when ripping? If you're in the US search the Walmart bins for a new copy. I saw some last week for $3.99 I think. You could also try IsoBuster but this might be a bit much for a "newbie".

So should i have anydvd? I dont think its free is it? Do you have to have it running in the background?
