Hello, I'm new here so please be kind!
I have an NEC 3540 with original firmware (1.01)
I installed dvd shrink (3.2) and Dvd Decrypter (3.5.4.0).
I tried to make backups using just dvd shrink but kept getting "copy protection error...I/O device error" so started using dvd decrypter to make an ISO read which seemed to work. I believe the first error message may be down to a bug in Nero (which I installed but am not using currently) so will now try unchecking "burn with nero" in the dvd shrink options.
I was then opening a disc image on dvd shrink and then re authoring that to make a backup that would fit on a single layer disk (using "make iso image file + burn using DVD decrypter").
That seems like a long way round - is using "file mode" in dvd decrypter going to be better?
The disks seem to burn ok but when playing them in my stand alone DVD player (a sony dvdps725) there are always 2 glitches about a third and two thirds of the way through when it will freeze and/or go back to the start of an earlier chapter.
Got decent media (I think) - Fuji DVD+R x8 (Ty) as recommended elsewhere. However, the dvds seem to play back ok on my PC, and having also tried Verbatim DVD+RW they seem to work fine on my stand alone as well. Is it the media? Or my sony player or something else I'm not doing right?
Is this "changing book type" going to help? (I'm not sure you can do this with my nec as it stands)
Thanks in advance for any replies.
Liam.
