    TRY USING THE SIMPLE METHOD WITHOUT GOING TO NERO. MY DVD X COPY HAS A BOX WHICH SAYS FULL DISC CHECK AND COPY USING DVD X COPY. JUST THAT SIMPLE! DON'T BOTHER WITH NERO

    Tick20,

    DVD XCopy, only handles original DVD's not ripped files. Reinsert your original DVD and let DV D Xpress do it's thing.

    If you want to work with files use DVDShrink, open the program, then click "Open File", trace your path back to where you have your VIDEO_TS folder and Shrink will handle it for you.
    Cheers,

    Hi guys, If you are trying to copy a copy, all you need is any disc to disc copy program as in Nero, Roxio or Recordnow. X copy software won't re-copy its self.
    Hi Pete, I see we're up and running again.

    I'm a-hangin'n in there Frank,

    I think he's tried to send his VIDEO_TS folder to Nero and it's not working.

    Tick20,
    If you haven't, try that, put all your files in a folder named [bold]VIDEO_TS[/bold] (written exactly like that). Nero just LOVES VIDEO_TS folders, it's Nero's favorite food.

    Install it in New Compilation (in the second window from the left). Make sure the window is empty first by clicking VIDEO_TS in the lefthand window.

    You should be good to ride then,


    Merry Xmas all,

    Hey Tick,

    I had the same problem with Nero 6 but I was able to easily copy it with InstantCopy 8.

    You could get and try burnatonce, a great free, uncomplicated burning app.

    Hi MysticE, I tried burnatonce a while ago but couldn't get it to burn +R media (I have a big stack of the stuff.) I assumed it was not compatible with + media. I'll take another look at the site and see if they have a compatibility list. What media are u using?
    bye,
    Frank

    Hey Frank,

    You are correct,just checked, no +'s for burnatonce. I will have to temper my recommendations.
