Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: Is it possible to get a D9 movie copied into a D5 disc?
A: Of course you can. After you click "Start Copy" icon, you are allowed to select what type of target disk you want for the burning job. If your original movie is a D9 one but you select it to be encoded to a D5 disk, our software can finish the burning job under the compression, which means the final movie will lose certain qualities so that it can be saved on one D5 disk which has smaller capability than that of the original movie
- Q: What does DVD Folder mean?
A: When we talk about DVD folders, we are focusing on the folders and files structure that we see when browsing a DVD on the PC. If you open a DVD on your PC, you will see two folders on the DVD disc, "Video_TS" and "Audio_TS". And in the "Video_TS" folder, you can find VOB files, BUP files and IFO files. They are all necessary things to form a standard DVD.
Our software will help you copy DVD movies down and saved them on your hard drive in this way. It is necessary when there are no empty disks available in DVD copying jobs. It is also a way to backup DVDs on your hard drive so that you can finish the job burning to the writable disk in the future.
- Q: What do "Include Menus" and "Skip Menu" mean?
A: If you just check the "Include Menus" option on, after the burning job, the new DVD movie will keep the original menus of the movie. And when you play the new copy, the menus will be shown automatically. If you also check "Skip Menu" on simultaneously, although the menu will be kept to the final output, it will not be automatically shown in the playback. You must manually operate the final movie so that the menu part of the movie can be seen. The "Skip Menu" option can not be checked on alone.
- Q: Can I just select one audio track/subitle of original DVD for the final burned disc?
A: Yes, you can select one of them for your final output if your original movie has more than one audio or subtitle options. After the original movie is read out by our program, you can select which audio track and which subtitle you like for the final output on the setting panel. All the corresponding items can be seen in the DVD Information list of that part.
- Q: What does the "Main Movie" button mean?
A: If you select main movie to copy, our software will just choose the longest title of your original movie to read and work. Generally, for most of DVD movies, the longest title should represent the main movie, the main episode of the movie, which means no extra things, such as Special Features, Trailers, and Menus. But for some special DVD movies, maybe the longest title is not or is not 100% of the main episodes. If your source movie belongs to this kind of DVD, you will not be able to just get main movie copied correctly by selecting Main Movie mode.
- Q: Is the program able to clone all encrypted DVD movies?
A: Generally, most of encrypted movies, which are in CSS protection, will be supported by our program. But it is hard to promise that all DVD movies can be decrypted by our program since CSS is just one of the technical ways to encrypt DVDs. Since it is widely used among current DVD movies, most of DVDs will be supported and you can finish the clone of them by our program.
- Q: What does D5 or D9 mean and can I use double-layer DVD writable disk for burning?
A: They refer to different types of disks in capabilities. D5 disk should have about 4.7GB free space on the disk while D9 should have double of that capability. D9 is just another name for double-layer disk which is more widely used by people. So your disk is supported by our program.
- Q: What's DivX?
A: You can treat DivX as the MP3 for movie. You get the same video quality as DVD while keep 1/10 of the size. You can play DivX in your computer or share it in Internet. Some newer DivX player can now play DivX movie as well. It seems DivX 5.03 is not as good as 5.02.
- Q: Why does the program show my DVD is not an effective DVD source since it's playable as a DVD on my PC?
A: It is a problem with the environment variables setting of your PC. Please enter "Control Panel" and then launch "System" setting. In the Advanced option card, please click "Environment Variables". In the following small dialog-box, there are two lists: User Variables and System Variables. In the System list, double-click "Path". And then please copy "%SystemRoot%System32Wbem" into "Variable Value".
After that, please re-launch the program so that the new setting can take into effect.
- Q: What's the difference between .IFO and .VOB files?
A: The .IFO (and backup .BUP) files contain menus and other information about the video and audio, you can treat it as the index of the media content. The .VOB files (for DVD-Video) and .AOB files (for DVD-Audio) are MPEG-2 program streams with additional packets containing navigation and search information.
- Q: What source file format does DVD Copy Express support?
A: This software supports both .IFO and .VOB formats. Since the software will parse the source file before converting, we recommend you to use .IFO file whenever possible.
- Q: Is there any limit about the DVD format?
A: No. There is no restriction to the DVD format. But DVD Copy Express is for personal backups only. If you don't own the DVD's that you are backing up, it is illegal to copy them, and we are not liable for consequence due to the use of our product for such purposes.
