What programs do you use to make a copy of a dvd onto a dual layer DVD+R.

I tried to use DVDShrink and Nero but it threw a paddy !

What does everyone else use ?

Oh and before the piracy issue comes into play this is not a copyprotected disc. It is a disc of family videos etc that my mother in law has made but I cant copy the bugger !

 

Hmmm what about "Sonic RecordNow"? ive always used that and sometimes when other programmes have said "NO" this one has performed the task flawlessy and even when im told the disc cant be used anymore i can erase it on RecordNow and carry on using the disc, its a great programme

 

Can you not just do a dvd - dvd copy using nero "on the fly" ??

 

would appear not as it throws up an error after writing side one and trying to do side 2 ?

 

What about my suggestion

 

will give it a go but where would I buy it from ?

 

Ok dont buy an DVD recording software, if your Nero wont copy it then its unlikely additonal software will do any better. If its in DVD movie format then DVD shrink should work ok.

I would try a straight copy using nero though as if the dvd is not copy protected then dvd shrink is not needed. Make sure your nero is set to copy to the HD first (not on the fly) and try the lowest recording speed.

Alcohol 120 and Clone Dvd are good programs and both offer free trials.

 

all done now cheers tony. My Nero was old hat. Just got the new Nero 7 premium trial from nero and it all works fine !
