Backup stucks sometimes / bad quality

[setarip]

"Maybe when a DVD copy is made, there will allways be some video bugs?!"

Nope - Not with a "clean" original and good quality burnable media...

Further to setarip's comment:

... Providing, if there is compression, it isn't so high so as to introduce visible artifacts into the video stream.

Thanks for your answers... But sorry blutach, i didn't get the last one...

[blutach]

First, you're welcome!

What I was saying is that, if, for example, you use DVD Shrink and the compression is high (slider near the left), you run the risk of seeing what are known as "artifacts". These are colour banding, blurriness, fuzzy dots, blocks, or pulsing effects, amongst others.

Doing deep analysis and applying AEC can minimise these effects.

"Thanks for your answers..."

My (Our) pleasure ;>}


"But sorry blutach, i didn't get the last one..."

Don't feel bad. You're not the first poster who hasn't been able to understand "blutach".

What he/she was trying to point out is that, if you compress your DVD too much, you might create some of what you refer to as "video bugs" (pixelation or little colored boxes, green dots, etc.)

Have a good evening.

oh ok i see... so if the compression is to high, i might wanna use an 8 Go Media?!
What is the maximum compression you would not go over to be sure to have a nice copy?

[blutach]

It depends on your system, but I do not go under a bitrate of 3.5Mbps. It is not the compression, per se, but the bitrate devoted to the video.

See here.

"He's a he."

The "he/she" is the standard reference I use for any poster whom I don't know personally.


"And no need to be narky"

I'm afraid I don't know what this means (Nor do I know what you mean by a "barney". Is that a purple dinosaur?)

"I don't believe I have taken a pot shot at you, sir."

My pleasure ;>}

Okayyyy!!!! i begin to see a little light in the darkness... thanks
Nox i really think i should use 8Go Media... Even if it is a little more expensive, i'll be sure to have a good quality...At least if the original DVD was perfect quality...

[blutach]

You're welcome. The alternative would be to split your DVD into 2 DVD-5 disks.

DVDFab is a good choice for this - get it for free at www.mrbass.org/dvdfab/

I have to check the cost difference... I don't like to much to have to change the DVD in the middle of the movie, but i'll have a look.. lol

[rnbwsix]

ok i just saw the price difference is huge...
On an internet site i usually buy the price is lke this :
Verbatim DVD-R 4.7 GO (certified 8x) pack of 10 = 13,80€ or $ if you want... compared to that :
Verbatim DVD+R DL 8.5 GO (certified 2.4x) = 12,90€ for ONE!!!!
Additing to this the price of the DVD Box, i can buy the new movie on the internet for the same...lol
So i'll better stay with the 4.7Go Media, lol

[blutach]

OK then. Good luck and have fun.

Ok i tried new media... Verbatim DVD-R 4.7Go... It's worse... I couldn't even watch the end of the movie... It stucks... Even the timer on my DVD Player has stopped... I burned it with DVD Decrypter at 1x speed...
Not very encouraging...
