  1. I do have dvdFab Gold 2.9 but how can I use it to create ISOs once I have ripped the DVDs to the hard drive in non-ISO mode?

     

     

    Open FabGold, Select Full Disc, then select Disc Folder, point to where your folder is and select it, choose whether to preserve menus or not on disc 2(for DVD9 only), as well as whether to jump strait to the movie, decide where to split at, then click Next, then click on DVD Image, it will create 1 or 2 iso's depending on whether it's a DVD9, it also creates video folders for each first, so you need a fair amount of HDD space first. Like Polpony says, DVDShrink works excellent for creating ISO's also.

  2. The advantage is that a lot of people feel that ImgBurn does a better job at burning than anything else, as some of us hate Nero with every bone in our body. Others are slightly more indifferent towards Nero and other burning software, and just feel IB does a significantly better job, with more functionality.

  3. NECs are good, but not quite this good.

    I wish it were true...

    V8s

    my first was also a Buick a 1965 Buick Riviara Grand Sport 425 CI Wildcat engine with dual 4 barrell carbs from the factory brute force moving a 4065 pound car .I only remember the weight because I once had to push it :lol: Its worth a buck now wish I still had it ,I sold it when I got drafted

     

     

    Very nice, I've always liked the Riviara's.

    V8s

    My dial-up means about a 2 hr download. -_- I still have my first car in the barn on blocks, a '67 Buick Wildcat, w/ a 430ci(7.4l) V8, 365hp, 360ft lb torque, 10mpg :rolleyes: Can't afford to drive it anymore :'(

  4. There was a guy not so long ago that tore his own face off while high on PCP. Maybe they used that.

     

    Oh wait, he fed it to his dogs... :ermm:

     

     

    No, that was the Ren And Stimpy short, "A Yard Too Far." :lol:

     

     

    Also a main scene in "Hannibal".

  5. I have noticed what your describing on poor DL media(Ritek), but not on good Verbs like your describing. I've had very good scans (IMO) of Verbs at 6x, and burn all my DL's at max speed now. One thing you could try is running a Plextools scan again, unfortunately PI/PO scanning isn't an exact science, and I have noticed variations between dual scans on the same disc. As far as attachments, I don't think that's restricted, but you do have to host the image somewhere first, if you can't do that yourself there are freebie hosting sites available.

  6. W 20:17:12 Failed to Write Sectors 391360 - 391391 - Power On, Reset, or Bus Device Reset Occurred

     

    Looks like a hardware error possibly caused the problem on the first burn, LUK or a beta member will be able to better explain. On your successful burn you had it set @4X, on the unsuccessful it was set at Max speed. Have you tried the Sony/Taiyos at 4X? You should be able to burn them faster than 4X, but a successful burn at that speed will be a good place to start.

  7. but fact is you can look over tons for forums...cdrlabs. cdfreaks, cdrinfo, etc. you see nothing but praise for LG and Benq and for the media mentioned...everything else has had complaints/issues with it.

     

     

    As the forums you mentioned above have numerous threads with people having trouble with both hardware brands you mention, to say "nothing but praise" is incorrect, and as a result puts everything else you've said into doubt, including BenQ's w/ SolidBurn ability to make a cheap shitty dye last.

    I afraid I'm going to have to call SHENANIGANS! All three sites you mention have as many problem threads for your favorite burners as they do praise. I have nothing against either LG or BenQ, but don't portray them as being perfect, they like ALL other burners have their pro's and con's, not the least of which is the rest of the computer it's in. On another note, Maxell has had it's share of problems recently, not the least of which is using CMC as one of it's manufactors.

  9. Your TV has a built in dvd player, correct? Looks like you've got it just about covered, as a North American I don't have any hardware with Scart, does it carry audio as well? If not you'll need to connect your TV combo to your recorder with audio connections as well. If your plan is to record from your tv's dvd player, that likely won't work due to a certain copyprotection your TV's DVD player will likely output. In most cases recording from sattellite or antenae will be your only options. What exactly is/isn't it doing?
