THIS FORUM IS ABOUT BURNING ISO IMAGES TO MEDIA. FULL BLOODY STOP. Regards

[edit]

Way over my head zac. How do you rename files? Regards

"Next time you try that, your hard disk will be automatically formatted" Regards

Very slowly. Most backer-uppers are still one-clickers who really don't care. They can't see the difference on their 26" TVs so they need not bother. And that is fair enough. The more discriminating viewer will turn away from convenience to quality - and you can't tell me that DVDRB isn't easy to run in its native mode (withoud addons). There's even a one click mode! It's just the time it take to get the encode done. Most folks complain about an hour with DVD Shrink or Recode. 4-6 hours is totally untenable with DVDRB for them. And that, at this stage, is the big difference. Time. Regards

OK what I do is this. If the menu is small - say <50Mb I don't tinker. Otherwise use MenuShrink. I put all my efforts into the flick - I figure I'm only gunna watch the extras once anyway. If there's room on the disk, I'll pop some extras on, but no biggie - the original DVD can be used to see the extras. Try to keep your main movie above 3500Mbps (using the FHE high-high matrix). At that level even the biggest projection screen will play it flawlessly. Higher BR if possible of course. Cut the credits ruthlessly if you don't need them. I like to turn the cast into 15 second stills (say 3 stills, saving about 200Mb) - see here. If you've got the movie in at 100% and wanna add some extras (Hitch R4 was a good example), then make it 100% movie and lower the BR on the extras. I run it in Half D1 and used robot1's RBOpt to make the extras at about 2300Mbps. Not bad, and Procoder smoothed it nicely. Of course, this took some tweaking. I had to remove the movie (with PgcEdit), figure out my new target sectors left for the extras, fix rebuilder.ini, set the right BR for the extras to fit, encode and replace the original movie (uncompressed). Took a bit of work, but it came out a dandy. Now, here's the rub. With DVD Shrink, it is so easy to implement this. You can keep the movie uncompressed and the BR for the extras will go down accordingly. But.... as a transcoder, the quality will just suck. So you need to re-encode properly, unless you just got a TV (say 68cm) where it won't be noticed. Ummm... why is this discussion happening in this forum and not at d9? Regards

I think? Yes, it was a cow of the last coupla days - little sleep and just more work coming on. I honestly can't remember what the hell I was gunna say at that time - probably something like Firey has 3 more hours of sleep left....the bitch! Regards

Just reading LFC's posts make me go (yawn) to sl...... Regards

Yeah, I reckon Hank deserves a lot of kudos for his work. $58 saved and I reckon the quality is at least up to CCE. And you can use a CCE matrix, too. Regards

@l8nights - never used RBLoader. My main wish is for an RBKeeper style addon to the prog. I think jdobbs is doing something for 1.10 to keep certain segments at 100% (bypassing them entirely, thereby gaining speed and quality) and then use RBOpt for the rest. This is where Procoder 2 comes in real handy as it is superb at low BR stuff. As for the high BR stuff, I tend to use the FHE matrix in RME. Regards

Daddy daddy stop snoring you're missing the best bit! Regards

Work? Wot's that? Regards

[edit]

That's one helluva cluttered Quicklaunch toolbar dontasciime! Regards

Re OT good to see! Yeah, she's is in a tizz right now. Don't tell kirk what it is, OK? Regards

OR WHAT? Regards

=))

I still think Pokemon woulda be worse. Regards

Now volvo, 69 is a number which is definitely not DILLIGAF. =)) Regards

The real thing in the Pro version is the ability to integrate easily the addons. Matrix Editor and RBOpt are tremendous, especially for when you have low BR stuff like extras that you wanna keep. Regards

Bloody good idea, IMHO. Regards

If it so affected, I strongly suspect there will be new products about to help you. Regards

Shame on you Wesociety!!!! Do I detect a competing burning product??? A bloated piece of shite from Behind A.G. Regards

And if that program works in that mode - which is does, cos it's a dandy - it is totally unnecessary in IB. Anyway, it's ImgBurn NOT "ImgBurn 'n' IFOReadNonEncryptedDVDs" Regards
