Unless I'm mistaken, with ImgBurn burning a DL backup, the layer break is minimal--if it's even noticable. I've only made about 8 backups with DL discs and with all of them, using Imgburn, I don't recall a "noticable" break. I was just asking about DVD9 to DVD5 layer breaks.
Mr_Pink, With the method I use from DVD9 to DVD5, I don't notice the layer break. Try it out and see how it works for you.
so no "noticeable" breaks huh...well as soon i get my movies from Netflix i'm gonna try it out...i just hope i don't want 2 waste more DVD9 blank discs
Yes sorry, I meant to have said clonedvd 2 not anydvd that takes away the layer break so there will be no pause. SORRY for the confusion.
so wat ur saying is that CloneDVD v2 is the "only" program that removes the layer break? what about CloneDVD v3 does it remove the layer break...but when i use CloneDVD 3 it doesn't seem 2 remove the layer break & it doesn't make the ISO other than 2 Directory Folders: Audio TS & Video TS
Clonedvd 3 has nothing to do with Elby or slysoft and is best avoided. And I have not said that clonedvd 2 is the ONLY way to remove the layer break, there are probably other software that does it aswell. When I use anydvd and clonedvd 2 there is NO layer break in my copys.
I'm not sure if the layer break pause will go away when burning a DL blank. Don't forget it has its own layer break somewhere in there. The pause may be less using the good programs but you can't change the way the disc is manufactured. Jerry
so wat do i do? I use Ritek RiData DVD-R DL disc & wat program should i use to remove the layer break
well i found this guide on the internet http://www.mediachance.com/dvdlab/Helppro/layerbreak.htm (which i don't quite understand) & i believe the program is DVD Lab Pro that might remove the layer break... also another link about how to remove layer break theory http://www.cdr-zone.com/forum/post-20554.html & can u guys tell me how to make 1:1 DVD9 copy with layer break removed (i'm totally confused)
For me the best application which carried out the layer break effort was CloneDVD. Nero, DVD Decrypter File and Iso mode had problems in my stand alone players even with older versions of AnyDVD running in the background.
so wat is ur suggestion??? well i'm trying to burn the image thru ImgBurn prgm...& a warning window pop up saying sumthing like: "Dual Layer Jump Disabled Cannot write DVD-R DL media in DAO mode Do you wish to continue?" so how do u enable it???
Use AnyDVD + CloneDVD. In case that you do not own theese programs download the trial version. Then I suggest to buy their registration numbers!
what version should i use for CloneDVD (cuz i got version 3.9.0.0) also CloneDVD doesn't make the image (other than 2 Directory Folders: Audio TS & Video TS <-- i have never done this way before other than burning an image) does anybody else have a better method?
can sumbody please show me how to remove the Dual Layer Break (i've tried AnyDVD + CloneDVD& no luck the Dual Layer Break remains)
You have anydvd running in the background load up clonedvd 2 insert disc into drive, select clone dvd when you choose what you want on the disc make sure dvd-5 is selected click next and choose what audio is required, click next and choose dvdwriter burn @ 4x and then go. When it has started it will say succsefully removed layer break.
I think everyone has the WRONG idea on the remove layer break feature. That was designed to remove the layer break when compressing a DVD9 DL movie onto a single layer DVD5 blank. You really can't remove the layer break if burning a DL movie to a DL blank. The DL blank media will still have its own layer break. So if the software you use has the remove layer break feature it will try to remove it from the ripped movie original but you will still have the built in layer break on the blank media which can't be removed. Jerry
From what I read in his 1st post he wants to put a dvd9 movie onto a dvd5 disc and does not want the layer break.
Exactly, in that case the Anydvd/Clonedvd process will work or at least help remove the layer break. My last post was for those trying to remove a layer break going DL to DL. It can't completely get rid of a layer break that is part of the blank media you are burning to. Jerry
That is correct you CANNOT remove the layer break on a blank dvd9 disk. If you copy a dvd9 movie onto a blank dvd9 you will get a 1.1 copy of what you are trying to copy, layer break and all.
