hello. i'm trying to convert some of my movies to Divx with the best possible audio possible. instead of making mp3's for my avi files, i'd like to make ac3 audio for them. some of them are in 5.1 surround sound. some might ask " why don't u just use the ac3 files that came on the original...

:confused: how's it goin? i haven't been to the forum in awhile and this is probably a redundant question but i can't seem to find it in the search. i recently updated from nero 6 to 7 and all seems to be well except one thing. the used read buffer during the burning stages while using the...

i recently bought the film Sky High for my son and tried backing it up so it wouldn't suffer the same fate as all other dvd's he has used for frisbies and such. when i back my movies up, i always use decryptor and shrink. decryptor ripped this movie fine but shrink, nero recode, tmpDVDauthor...

When using DVD Decryptor, there's an option to load Movie Only or Movie and all IFO files. I've backed up using both methods and can't tell the difference in the backups. Wat are these extra IFO files that are backed up when checking Main Movie & IFO files and if it worx without them why add...

When i open Nero to burn a Video Cd(DVD) it alwayz creates an AUDIO_TS folder, but when i add VIDEO_TS files and burn the back up and recheck it, there is nothing in the AUDIO_TS folder. Is this folder necessary? -I backed up a DVD using ROXIO 6 with the Classic Creator Mode in Data CD format...
