1 to 2 Sony Duplicator - Need Help

[irishrookie]

Does anyone have any experience burning their movies as backups with a stand alone 1 to 2 Duplicator?

The Sony 1 to 2 Duplicator states "Your master must be non-copy protected and it is in DVD-5 format (or less than 4.7GB capacity)"


Question: Can I install DVD shrink and/or DVD decrypter on this stand alone & burn DVDs directly, just like I would on a PC or will this not work? It comes with an 80GB Hard Drive.

I'm looking at buying one as I spend a lot of time at work & it would help with making some copies here, along with the flexibility to cart it around. However, I need to make sure that I can use the burner just like I have on my PC with DVD shrink.

Hope that makes sense & I would greatly appreciate the help

Thx in advance

Hello

This all subject is too suggestive to something our forum rules are quite clear about.

I ask myself this simple question after reading your message, why would I want two copies of the same thing? Sure to B sure this all sounds a little off white!

And if your answer is home made Video/DVD then theres is no need to install DVD SHRINK.

Sorry about that...

Let me reword it then, is it possible to install DVD Shrink on a Sony 1 to 2 Standalone Duplicator & will it work?

Ahhhhhhhhh!

Most of what I know about computers is trial and error, there are a silly amout of people who learned the same way.

Don't know the reason for you to use this. Lets assume you want to copy your marriage movies.

It has Optional USB 2.0/Firewire IEEE 1394 connection to a computer - so it should work as an external device. You can't run DVDShrink on this copier direct. So you need to connect it to a PC.

But if you can burn directly from DVDShrink/Nero i doubt. Think you have to save the output to a hard disk and then use the built in (?) software to burn.
