Guest RenoZ Posted July 25, 2006 I am trying to make copies of rented DVDs and am having a heck of a time. Is there a sure-fire, no-nonsense software download that will help? What do I need to do? I have tried: CloneDVD - that doesn't seem to work - wrong disk types maybe? Decrypting the DVD and then burning it - won't work There has to be a way to get past the obvious copyright security. I can get it saved to my desktop but the quality is not perfect and then I can't convert it to the right format where it will let me burn it. TIA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cdub100 3,447 Posted July 26, 2006 Here's what you do. Go here: http://torrentspy.com/torrent/536404/Nero_...ition_Works_100 There's a whole list of keys. When you go to install Nero instead of the trial key use one of the keys from the above site. Then go here: http://ww2.nero.com/enu/index.html Download nero 7 ultra. Install nero using one of the CD keys from the site. DO NOT USE THE TRIAL KEY! Now you have Nero which should copy most things. But I find this: http://www.dvdshrink.org/what.html Will copy everything. You have to have nero in order to use it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest RenoZ Posted July 26, 2006 Sorry Go to this thread: http://www.fftodayforums.com/forum/index.p...563&hl=Nero I posted the same instructions there and all the links work. The expected problem just happened - I downloaded these programs and, of course, the disks are copyright protected. I found out yesterday that I CAN copy them to my hard drive but then have a hard time converting them to a format where I can burn to DVD. Next step, Cdub??

dcOne 2 Posted July 26, 2006 On a side note....RenoZ has only 128 mb of RAM. And he wonders why his puter hangs when he is running limewire. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HilltopperVike 0 Posted July 26, 2006 Well first of all, you don't need Nero to use DVD Shrink when you have the actual media from a rental as an example. Just rent a movie for $3, and then use DVD Shrink to extract the DVD to your hard drive, and then to copy the DVD back to a blank DVD (DVD Shrink does this all for you by the way). It works great, and it's not rocket science, just a few clicks and you are good to go. It does everything for you, including any copyright stuff. Give it a try.

This is from the DVD shrink site, "DVD Shrink will also burn your backup DVD, if you have installed the latest version of Nero or if you download CopytoDVD." HTH Cdub - how will this help me around the copyright security? DVD shrink will get around it for you. I've never had a problem burning any DVD I have... of course I buy a copy and only use DVD shrink it to backup stuff that I have... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
