    Is this possible?

    I have some short films on individual DVDs that I would like to rip, compress if necessary, and burn to 1 DVD. Can this be done, and if so can it be done using DVD Decrypter, DVD Shrink and Nero, which just happens to be the software I already use? Thanks for any and all input.

    Are all DVD burners created equal?

    I know that some CD burners are more adept at reading certain CD encryptions than other burners. Does the same thing apply to DVD burners? I have never had a problem ripping a DVD with my Lite-On burner, but my friend purchased an EMPREX DVD burner from Fry`s Electronics, and has encountered...

Thanks for...

This particular burning program had a feature that could automatically adjust the volume level of each mp3 so that the songs on the finished cd all had approximately the same volume level. Does anyone know which programs have...

    Is this possible?

    I want to backup my original Lord of the Rings dvd, but I`m concerned that the amount of compression necessary to get it on one dvd will adversely affect the video quality.

    how do I determine firmware

    2 questions about lite-on dvd burners

    The 1st question is, what are the primary differences between the 401s & the 411s? The 2nd question is, will either of the previously mentioned drives burn the vast array of cd protections that my lite-on cd burner does? (assuming that I can use a dvd burner to burn cds!) Thanks for all responses.
