Ripping to just computer

VIDEO_TS is 4.25GB and AUDIO_TS is 4.36GB. I may have to go back to block one. Remember, I renamed the "Blood Work" folder to "VIDEO_TS" and then added the "AUDIO_TS" folder.

 

I guess you use DVD Decrypter and then DVD2ONE and then burn the DVD. Do you set up both empty folders before using DVD Decrypter or after using DVD Decrypter?

 

OK, there's the problem. The AUDIO_TS folder [bold]must be empty.[/bold]

Create a new blank folder, with [bold]nothing in it[/bold] and burn that to your DVD along with the VIDEO_TS folder.

 

Here's what I do: Full or Movie Only

create a folder "ripped" (or whatever)
run smartripper destination "ripped" folder

create a folder "ready to burn (or whatever)
run dvd2one destination "ready to burn)

run nero, click dvd/movie
very left hand pane, click TS folder
open "ready to burn" folder, highlight all files
drag and drop to left hand pane, BURN BABY BURN!!

After I have created my dvd movie I delete the contents of "ripped" and "ready to burn" folders and start another project. Once you have succesfully burned a copy you dont need the files any more. My opinion.

 

Firstly I have never come across an instant where I need the AUDIO_TS folder, I do not use it.

1. Create a folder on ur desktop called VIDEO_TS(in uppercase)
2. Rip using dvd decrypter in file mode (make sure main movie box is ticked in tools/settings/file
3. Open dvd2one
4. Select the folder that dvd decypter has made on ur hd as the SOURCE
5. Select the VIDEO_TS folder as the DESTINATION
6. Select ur oppriate settings in dvd2one (I only keep the movie and the best audio)

Let dvd2one do it's thing

Now dvd2one has produced a DVD COMPLIANT structure, u can just burn that VIDEO_TS folder to a dvd - I use recordnowmax (100% success so far)

I have also pm'd you with a small nero guide I did - but it may not be flawless.

 

Hahaha, so that's who took my nick!

Ok, lemme get this straight: After I use DVD Decrypter and IFO edit to split the DVD into 2, and I am setting up the folders to burn on the DVD±R/RW,I ABSOLUTELY have to have that double-damn "AUDIO_TS" folder or the thing will not play?

Cos I swear I have seen older DVD's that did not have that folder, and they played. But I could be wrong.

Anyway, I'll usually let a DVD sit on my hard drive for a month or so before I decide to keep it, if ya wanna watch it, just drag the first VOB file into PowerDVD, or other such player.

My new motto for watching moovies however, is "download-watch-delete"

 

Baabaa:

Aha I was right, that folder is like an appendix, it is there but not necessary. Gronk, ok.

DVD2one, eh?

Ok, I'll try it, sounds easier than using IFOedit.

 

I am able to play a DVD+RW on my computer automatically even using the menu, but this DVD is not recognized in my Sony DVD player which is supposed to play DVD+RW media. Do I have to finalize the DVD+RW to make it play in a standalone DVD player?

 

Yes.

 

I just copied the VIDEO_TS and empty AUDIO_TS folders to a DVD+R using Roxio Easy Creator 5, copying data files. This disc works on my computer, but does not work in my Sony DVD player. It could not read the disc and said the DVD was dirty.

My copy of Nero was not able to find my DVD writer, so I updated Nero from their web site. After I upgraded Nero and tried to find my DVD writer, I got a message saying that version of Nero only worked with DVD writers bundled with that version of Nero programs.

 

Well, you seem to be doing everything OK now. Next step is to either try another type of media (a different brand.)

Or try the disc in a friend's player. Preferably a different model but still newer.

 

DVD2one KICKS ARSE!

But I had to use IFOedit t generate new IFO and BUP files.
