im trying find a guide or place to find out where to get the dvd cover art to fit on a disc for my movies instead of writing the title on the disc with a sharpy

i bought those round cover art sticker type things that you print the cover art onto and then stick to the disc and some of the movies would not work after i stuck it on, i was told that it throws off the balance and they will not work, is there a better way of going about this?

Buy printable discs.

http://www.mega-search.net- Is also a Good site for the images/artwork on dvd Movie disc ( Label Surface ) as well as the cover aer for the DVD case cover as well !

Locate the cover you desire,right click save as,and send it to your covers folder.

Sticker Labels: Just asking for problems. They require the use of an application tool to properly apply them. Heat issues,playback issues, and tearing apart are some other reasons.

Inkjet printers are a very good and safe way to label your movie backups. You'll also need inkjet printable media. Ink won't adhere to regular and thermal dvds.Inkjet media is pricier too.

In the USA: Staple's has the Epson RX-595 on sale for under $90 after rebate. If you want a very economical way to do it,look for the older Epsons R-200/R220/R300/R320/R340 printers.

If your not from the USA,then disc printers from Canon are easy to obtain.

http://www.customcovers.org/ccnew/index.php? Great covers but you have to contribute to the site or pay to download. Just as saugmon said never buy the stick on labels. Learned that in the early years when a couple hundred backups stopped working.

Just one thing puzzles me... I have a scanner and it takes seconds to scan an original disk.. same with the cover. Now I can understand the need to get possibly a replacement case cover (ex rental/shop overstock etc) but the original disk should be in your possession at the time the backup is made ;)
