Whoa! does this actually work, did anyone try this utility yet?

My only question is that it seems to have a quality tab? how can it tell dvd2one to use better compression, I thought dvd2one only used the same setting for all movies!?

Can anyone enlight me on this?

taht depends what compressor/encoder is used. when CCE support is done, you can select output quality using the trackbar

frenetic26 · 14th February 2003, 16:57

AH, ok, so the compression selection does not apply to dvd2one then?

thx

there is only DVD2One 1.0 support at this time and it don't support variable output size (wait for 1.1 version)

What is is supposed to do ? Make a 1:1 copy ?

When I run it it finds the DVD, but then it checks the audio and the software 'freezes'.

Also, when the software is run, it attempts to access the internet. Is this for real ? or a Fake ? Spyware maybe ?

Their website isn't much help, it doesn't even explain what the software is supposed to do ...

Somewhere on their website they mention, that this connection is done to check for the end of the trial period.

DVDBot does not even allow the selection of the DVD source. So it does not even find my DVD.

I guess I'll delete right now.

Please try the latest v0.9a
we hope this version fix the "no dvd detected" problem

mackemsrule · 14th February 2003, 19:13

got the new version but it still has probs finding the movie, if u run the progy 1st the dvd wont even show up in windows explorer, i have to shut dvdbot down then put the disc in, however it still crashes on checking the audio stream.

jvc7845 · 14th February 2003, 19:21

can those who have problems try to use DVDDecrypter ?
it would be interested to know if they have to select another I/O mode than SPTI to work (ASPI or ASAPI) to have DVDDecrypter working ?

thanks

Antonio S. · 14th February 2003, 19:24

Do we really need this program ???

Is better to use just DVD2one.

DVD2Bot is all-in-one, "one click" copy concept
it gives more control, and don't forget that encoders like CCE & TMPG are planned

DVDbot has trouble finding my disk.
DVDDecrypter works fine for me using SPTI. I am using a Pioneer A04.

zwieber · 14th February 2003, 20:02

Does it copy the menu's and the extra's ?

Sayitpunk · 14th February 2003, 23:15

I'm with ZWIEBER on this one, what exactly does it do??

I have already d/l it to test but it just crashes for me (on my otherwise ROCK solid XP platform) I am able to use DVDdecryptor (and do so regularly) on it's default settings without problems.

Is BOT a full backup solution (menus ect)

hendrix · 15th February 2003, 05:04

I gave this proggy a try and i can say it looks very promising.
Im using Win XP and had no problems with it so far. I prefer to use CCE so I would like to see how this program run in tandem with it.

i have a suggestion may it's already in the works - i noticed that you cant select which VTS you want, seems like the program selects it for you - it would be nice to be able to select them manually.

That would prevent me from buying it. I dont want any phone-home apps on my computer, thank you very much.
