I can rip and burn on nero and cd creator. BUT when I use dycrypter it rips and burns without an errors. But the finsished dvd won't play on any of my dvd players and I get a message on my PC that says "cannot play these types of files." any ideas? Ps: I'm using decrypter in order to avoid the copyright warning message.
Check this guide and see if you are missing a step. http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/small_dvd_2_dvdr.cfm This guide is for a single layer smaller dvd movie but the steps are the same. Jerry
Somethins wrong. Or I'm still doing something wrong. For the heck of it I just ripped another movie with dvd shrink and burnt it with cdcreator, but again my comptuter says "will not play this type of files" So....it has to be happening when its ripped. right? Or could there be a hardware problem? Could there be an arguemnt beteen my computer and shrink and decrypter?
If your CD Creator is the Roxio version I would stop using it. It has conflicts and problems with many of the dvd backup programs. In Shrink, is a box to check so Shrink will auto start Nero for the burn back. Decrypter can also be used as the burn engine for Shrink. Here is another good set of guides to look at. http://www.dvdplusvideo.com/tutorial007.html Jerry
also codecs are needed or compressing / decompressing / encoding / transcoding / audio changes / burning / and also play back etc etc..... its a good starting block foundation for dvd projects and alike...
