Hi, hope this is the correct area of the forum for my query, if it's wrong could it please be moved to the appropriate area.... I have the NEC-ND-4551A multi-writer. I've recently purchased a Panasonic 9.4GB DVD-RAM disk to use in it. Although I have formatted the disk in Windows XP, I read...

Hi, when right clicking on the desktop/in explorer, is it possible to customise or add items to the NEW menu? What I would like to do is be able to create a VIDEO_TS folder rather than just NEW FOLDER and having to rename it. I know it may sound lazy but just wondered if anyone knew if it was...

Hi, until a few weeks ago my Pioneer 105 was working fine. But, now - if I put a retail dvd in it, it doesn't give any info for the disc in MY COMPUTER. I can still decrypt from the drive and burn dvd-r and cd-r although again, with blank media it doesn't give any detail in MY COMPUTER. Here is...

ChickenMan - as you are under the impression that dvdlab is so great, perhaps you might be able to help me (I too think it's great and haven't had any major problems with it until now) - I have an svcd .mpgs, i added the first .mpg as an asset into dvdlab, it gave me the usual demux reminder...

Chickenman.. can you help? I am creating a dvdr with Maestro from 2 svcd's. I have carried out all the steps prior to the connections tab but after I have set some chapters in the connections tab, set the Target for the END ACTION of the last chapter of Movie1 to Chapter 00:00:00 of Movie2, do I...

I want to create a multi-session DATA-ONLY DVD-R with mp3's on it and keep adding to it. What is the best software to do this with? I also want to preserve the full length of the filenames, not have them shortened as Nero always seems to do (despite trying every setting!) Please give me step by...

Is there any software that allows you to save streaming (?) Quick Time movies from web sites, like movie trailers? I know you can use Total Recorder for sound but I want to save the video too. Thx

Hi, Does anyone know how to go about doing a DVD-R with the extras from various DVD's? A friend of mine has asked if I can create just the extras from some of her favourite films to put on one DVD-R, I know it is possibly but what is the easiest way? Bearing in mind that the VOB sets are all...

I used dvd decrypter on a 7gb music dvd, it decrypted all the files successfully. I attempted to use Pinnacle's Instant Copy to process it in order to fit the output on one dvdr. When it read the video_ts.ifo it came up with an error. So, I tried using DVD2One instead, it got about 5 minutes...

Hi. Can anyone help me... I want to convert some divx files. I looked at the tut for divx to dvd conversion but i am having a problem installing the divx3.11. When I click on the "Run Me First" I get the problem shown below... I am running WinXP by the way. Is this common and is it safe to...

Hi.. If you have a Region 2 DVD-ROM drive, you want to rip a Region 1 DVD (or any region other than 2) and you use the excellent dvd decrypter; you may have discovered that it brings up this error message: Device:[name of dvd-rom] Media region code is mismatched to logical unit region! The...

I have a couple of DVD-R's with movies on them but they are in NTSC format. I let a friend borrow these to play on her PS2 but the picture is in black and white, yet a PAL movie is perfectly fine. Is there a way I can rip the VOB's and IFO from my DVD-R and then use a program to alter the colour...

Can anyone tell me if there is a certain structure involved if I want to create a DVD with just Audio on it? Can u just burn .wav files to DVD-R and it will play back in a DVD player like the DVD AUDIO ONLY concerts which you can now buy?

I have a Soyo Dragon Plus 1800 XP Athlon based motherboard with three RAM slots. Is it possible for one of the slots to be damaged? Only, I originally had 512mb (2 x 256) leaving one slot empty... last year I started getting the blue screens of death, I ordered a new stick of 256mb RAM after...
