DVD decrypter is a means to rip REAL video DVD media, and not ripping "suspect" Alcohol 120% images ( 17:27:05 Source File: C:\PIRATES_OF_THE_CARRIBEAN.MDS ) that you have downloaded from your P2P source! :D

Dvddecrypter creates .mds too,m8.....;)

Why it is a "source file"? It should be a "destination file" in that case.
Because,in my opinion,he ripped and burned the disc with DvdDecrypter....since he used a dual layer blank,no re-encoding or shrinking was needed...

as you see,there are almost 2 minutes between the read completion and the burn....

also it wasnt from a p2p network it was from my disk have been wanting to try the duel layer function on this bunner to see if it worked and it works great backed up several disks only draw back is the price :eek: and the fact it wont do -dvr's or record them


I would not recommend it yet (not while still under warranty), but it appears the Philips 8601 is a BENQ OEM - with possibilities of a hack-update to Benq 1600-1620
was going to do the benq mod but it works good now so i will live with it untill waranty goes out then i might try it.
and if its in iso rip shouldnt it burn to a +dvr or -dvr and play?? i'll have to try that and see. but the backups are just like the orignal except region free option was used
so far i used sonic, dvd decripter,dvdxcopy even the burn disk in windows media player seems to work with it and b's gold havent tryed nero yet :rolleyes:
