DVD Decrypter multi tasking

    Hello all,
    I have made a DVD of assorted pictures and videos for work.
    I want to know if I can run multiple sessions of DVD Decrypter copying the same file to 3 different blanks.
    To elaborate, I have 3 burners connected to my PC. 2 internal, 1 external.
    Normally I right click on my .ISO file and say 'burn using decrypter'.
    I want to make 3 copies of the same .ISO file. Can I make the 3 of them at the same time, or must I do one at a time?

    Any thoughts?

    unless you have a real high end power house tower you may just make coasters with video to be safe burn one at a time

    I agree.

    As well as needing a lot of CPU power, reasonably careful placement of the devices on the bus will be required in order to keep I/O flowing to all 3 devices. (ex. can't put 2 writer on the same IDE cable, can't put a burner on the same IDE cable, can't have contention on the USB port.
    Of course, all this is conjecture because you didn't state the device types, but no matter what the interfaces are, they need to be kept open so the I/O can flow (relatively) uninterrupted.

    I do this often, but with Nero Burning Rom's "multiple recorders" feature. I do this across SATA, IDE and USB2.0 burners or combinations of those..
    I can't speak for DVD Decrypter, though i rip fine using multiple instance of DVD Decrypter, as the others have said i think multiple instances of DVD Decrypter for burning would probably result in coasters..
