I hope some one can help me, my dvd x copy was working fine and then the other day I tried to open it and it wont open the error "Cant locate playdll.dll file" comes up and it wont open. Please help. Kim
can i just ask you why are you using something thats obsolete.They are better programs available and can be found at the link below.They are either free or trial. http://www.filepedia.com/
I installed the 21 day trial of anydvd and tried to burn a copy of my After the Sunset, burn worked fine then I had a problem copying onto the blank dvd. I am using Memorex DVD+R, Nero kept coming up with an error, "Not enough space on blank disc", the movie is only 92 minutes long and my DVD is 120 minutes. Nero says DVD required is DVD+/-/RW and wont burn on my DVD. When I was using XCopy I never had this problem I dont know what to do now. Can you help. Thanks Kim
for starters change your media, memorex only works for 1% of the population. You will need to start from scratch. What are your pc stats? programs you are currently using to burn dvds? errors you recieve ? i know the media but suggest you try ritek ridata discs ,prefferably -R TYPE.
Hi, thanks for responding. I have very little knowledge of what I am trying to do, but I think I can answer the questions you asked. My se is WIN XP, I have never had a problem with the memorex but I will switch to a different brand. I'm not sure which problem you were responding to, my first question involved my DVDXCOPY, that was the missing play.dll file error I got. Then after reading alot of posts on your forum I downloaded the 21day trial of Anydvd, thats when I got the error "Not enough space on media", I realized after I posted my problem that Anydvd was not compressing the movie like my DVDXCOPY did, so now I have also downloaded the trial version of CLONEDVD2, if I can figure how to use these two tools I will purchase them and remove my copy of DVDXCOPY altogether, I just dont know if I'll be able to figure it out or not, I would assume I need to run the ANYDVD first with my movie to remove all the stuff that needs to be removed, the problem is as soon as thats done, it tells me to insert a DVD, I am also using NERO EXPRESS 6, so I dont know how I am supposed to use all three and in what order or how to do it, I get the ANYDVD part thats easy, but how do I get over to CLONEDVD when its asking me to insert a blank media. I know this probably sounds like I am a total idiot, and when it comes to this stuff believe me I am, any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated You are the only one who has even responded and it is greatly appreciated. Thanks very much. Kim
ok you seem to have lots of software but not the knowledge of how to use them. Slysofts anydvd is only used to allow you to bypass the copy protections that are on all commercially made dvds when you utilise programs like clone dvd etc.This program runs in the background when you use shrink/or clone Ok heres a link to a free program which you can download.Let me know when you have it. http://www.filepedia.com/video_software/dvd_rippers/dvd_shrink.cfm
Thank you for your response, I realized late last nite that Anydvd was just a ripper and that the function DVDCopy did of compressing the files was not a feature so I went back to the forums and discovered I needed a seperate program to do the compression part and I downloaded Clonedvd2, it isnt in your list, is this one okay or should I get one of the ones you suggested instead, anyway after I downloaded the trial version I went back to the forums and printed out the instructions for using it, and tried the burn again and it worked, thanks for your input and help. On a different issue altogether I have discovered a nasty virus on my system that keeps redirecting me to websites everytime I logon, so I guess the rest of my life is goin to be devoted on trying to figure out how to get rid of it. i think the nasty virus is nail.exe and I have tried everything I could find, downloaded Hijackthis but of course I dont know what to do with the scan results, they give you a message be careful what you delete, so of course I am afraid to delete anything in case I screw up my whole system. I saved my log and will try to find something to help me determine what I should and shouldnt delete. I also downloaded a program that was supposed to remove it "Nail.exe" but it obviously didnt. I ran regedit last nite and found the files under my search assistand, deleted them and thought I was finally cured but of course as soon as I logged onto the internet today the ads stared popping up again, its driving me crazy, anyway thanks again for your help, I think I will buy Clonedvd2 and Anydvd, they worked really well. They will be well worth the price. Bye for now Kim
