    I use a Sony TRV 30 digital camcorder to film my son's soccer games. I then use a Gateway AR-230 DVD recorder to record several of the games on to DVD+R. I would then like to use my computer to make copies for the team. However when I try to use DVDCloner2 or OneClickDVD I get error messages. DVDcloner will not even read the DVD and OneClick reads the DVD and then closes due to an error. Any suggestions on how I can easily copy the DVD that has several soccer games? Thanks.

    Hi SamOne, If the first dvd you make plays good on stand alone players, it should be simple to copy it. It is not encrypted so any disc copy program should work. Nero, RecordNow Max, or even Roxio have disc copy programs that work well for your type dvd. Now if for some reason that first dvd copy you made doesn't play properly in a stand alone player, then there is a problem with the type of file format you are burning on the first disc. That would have to be corrected before you can copy it. Just insert the original dvd, click copy complete disc and then insert a blank when it tells you to. Hope it works out for you.
    If its a different file format that is giving you trouble, try this guide.

    The first DVD plays fine. I tried to download the trial version of Nero and while installing got the message "Error during installation of component AIFF Audio Plugin" Any suggestions on what might be the problem. I didn't see it on the Nero FAQ. I am using a Dell XPS with WinXP pro. Thanks.

    I had the same problem when I tried to download Nero, I gave up the download and bought the retail version, I had no problems with that install. It's well worth the money to buy Nero 6 Ultra

    100% correct, michigan. You won't believe all you get with ultra 6. You can get it at eagletronics for 49.00, retails for 99.00. All audio and video needs are there. Read the threads SamOne, yooouuullll see...
