Does anyone know any good DVD copy programs?

I prefer free. Lol. Thanks.

DVD Shrink and it is free

Thanks

Alright. It's not working right.

I'm using this type of blank DVD.

Maxwell, DVD+R, Burns up to 8x, 4.7 GB, 2 hrs in SP mode.

When I use that program it wants to use one of my existing programs; either Apollo Copy or 1Click DVD Copy 5. Those are both trial downloads. Should I delete them?

Not only that; should I get another brand of blank DVD's?

Thanks very much.

yes remove the other programs you have on there. dvd shrink will take the film-tvshow or what ever you have on your dvd and put it onto you pc to then put it onto another dvd disk you may want to use DVDDecrypter it is another free bit of software.

I think it's my blank DVD's. Because when I got to the point of burning them on a dvd cd. It kept saying, "please insert a cd". Well, there is one in the computer, it's just not registering.

Do you, or anyone, know any good blank DVD's?

I'm doing this for ministry. So, if someone might be thinking I'm giving out free Lion King movies, think again. Lol.

Anywho. Someone help, please and thank you.

I actually just use the staples brand of DVD. You might want to get DVD-R instead of DVD+R because older DVD players cannot play DVD+Rs. Also some times some DVDs or CDs will just not work so just throw that individual one away and try the next one in the stack. Good Luck,

Yea. I thought that might've been it but I'd be 'throwing out' like 20 or so.

Hmm. DVD-R. Never knew there was a difference.

I'm lost on this topic. Thanks so far for the help.

I still need some help with this. Thanks

Hi lovegrace,

Could you tell us what exactly you want to do? What kind of DVD you want to copy? Is it video for DVD player?
Could you copy this video with copy-paste to your Hard Disk? Please give us more information, so we could help you and suggest some programs.

Thanks, Kire

I need a program to burn/copy a DVD unto a blank DVD. Preferrably free.

Let us try with this one, it is free:

Go to the link and you will see [url=http://www.burnworld.com/burnoncddvd/BurnOnCDDVD.zip]Download Now[/url] (you can do that from here also).

Install and try it, and let us know the results.

I really enjoyed the new program. Alas, I still haven't been able to burn my DVD's.

I think it's MY BLANK DVD. Can someone name a GOOD brand of DVD's to get? Because mine, out of 50, don't seem to be working.

Could you tell us on which stage the problem comes out?
I doubt that the problem is with the blank DVD.

The DVD that you are trying to copy is it bigger than 4.7GB? Is it protected?

If the DVD is bigger than 4.7GB then you need double layer blank DVD in order to copy it.

As I said before, "I'm using this type of blank DVD.

Maxwell, DVD+R, Burns up to 8x, 4.7 GB, 2 hrs in SP mode."

I'm stuck on the part where it finds/scans (or whatever) my blank DVD. It can read my Original DVD fine. But even when I try 10 other BLANK DVD's, it DOES NOT register, it says "Put a blank DVD in". It did that with the other programs too.

It's not protected because I copied the Original DVD onto my computer with NO PROBLEMS.

So, again, what are some GOOD blank DVD's?

Here are the properties of my Drives, if that matters.

D: HITACHI DVD-ROM GD-8000

Device Type: DVD/CD-ROM drives

Manufacturer: (Standard CD-ROM drives)

Location: Location 0 (0)

E: _NEC NR-7700A

Device Type: DVD/CD-ROM drives

Manufacturer: (Standard CD-ROM drives)

Location: Location 1 (1)

Thanks for the information.
Have you ever burnt a DVD?

From what I can see both of your drives are combo drives, which means doesn't support burning DVD's, just reading them. And you can burn just CD's.

Nope, but I can play them. It says Device type 'DVD' and Cd's. So I don't see why it can't burn DVD's.

This is called Combo Drive.
"A Combo drive is a type of optical drive that combines CD-R/CD-RW recording capability with the ability to read ([b]but not write[/b]) DVD media."

So are both of my Drives CD burners only?

So are both of my Drives CD burners only?

I am afraid that both of the Drives are not even CD burners.

I am sure about the first one that it doesn't support burning even CD's. You can see, it says CD-ROM , ROM - stands for Read Only Memory. I found also the [b]HITACHI[/b] specification which confirms that it can read only CD's and DVD's.

I am not sure about the second one [b]NEC[/b]. I couldn't find specification for it. But probably it [b]can[/b] burns CD's.

Have you ever done that?

Yea I burn CD's all the time.
