Download whatever pic you want and use the program that should come with the burner. Or you can use Nero it has lightscribe program in it. Here is a beginners guide on LS http://www.lightscribe.com/
Ok guys, got my new BenQ burner, gosh it's fast. Using Shrink, it burns very well. My light scribe discs will be here by UPS today, so I get to try that, wish me luck. But I was wondering, a while ago in one of these forums, I asked how to convert my digital camcorder movies to DVD, I bought the firewire port like I was told, but have still been unable to convert to DVD, is there an easy way to do this, cause remember your talking to me...lol? Thank you for all your help so far you have been awesome.
Usually software comes with your camcorder, although it didn't with mine. I assume you are using Mini-Dv tapes, if so, then I used Ulead version 9 to encode/burn to DVD. They have a forum there, that has guides, which is what I followed. It took some time to figure it out, but the guides are actually pretty good. Oh, and they have 30-day free trial, or at least they did, and I accomplished my chore well within the trial. Good luck, Rich
Ok, I need help once again, I bought the Chronicles of Narnia today, and am trying to back up. Everytime it gets to 6% of encoding, it stops and this error comes up.... DVD Shrink encountered an error and cannot continue Failed to read file "D:\" Data error (cyclic redundancy check) It hardly ever happens with any other DVD...so what does it mean, and how do I back this DVD up>?
Most likely it is a problem due to new encryption on some of the later releases. We need to know what software you are using and steps taken. Do you have any software to break new encryptions? I recommend anydvd. What utility are you using to rip with?
Ok, Mort, don't exactly understand what all the terms mean. Let me do my best. I am using DVD Shrink, with DVD43. I just downloaded free trial version of anyDVD, but am unsure how to use it
anydvd runs entirely in the background. Just double click on the anydvd icon and look for the red fox in you your tray by the time. You should then be able to use dvd shrink as you normally would. You might have to rip the dvd to your hdd before loading it into shrink. Right click on the red fox in the try and select rip to hdd. Select your drive with the dvd as the source and make a new folder for the target. Load that folder into shrink by clicking on open files. Locate the folder you just made and click on it.
