No Compression for movie but Compression for Menu?

[katarakt]

I have a movie with menu which fits on a dvd-5 but without the extras. Is it possible to aktivate the 'no compression (100% video)' mode and blank all extras within dvd-rebuilder?

The rebuilder won't accept this in the backup mode options after choosing 'no compression' so i have to use another tool. This would be a great feauture in the next rebuilder version.

That feature is already available in DVD-RB Pro. May not be something that will be available in the free ver.

[katarakt]

I just got the pro version 1.09.3 but it don't have this feauture or can you please tell me the steps what to click or what i do wrong?

If i choose cce and in the backup methode 'movie and menu only (blank all extras)' the menu AND the movie will be reencodet but i only want a re-encodet menu (or not encodet menu) and blanked extras. The movie should keep as it is.

I just got the pro version 1.09.3 but it don't have this feauture or can you please tell me the steps what to click or what i do wrong?

Update to v1.10.2. seeing that it's been out since July 3rd. You should have got a link with your email for the new ver. Seeing that you are using the Pro ver and I assume you payed for the Pro ver and you are using a none cracked ver... most of the cracked ver don't work right and don't have all the features.

The audacity of some people never ceases to amaze me.

If people want to use warez that is their own business, but to come looking for help because the software that they pilfered doesn't work like a legal version of said software is just ridiculous.

so true.

uhhh, I'm a registered user and I don't see that function, nor do I care about it.

btw I haven't rcvd notification of v1.10.02, but I did rcv notification of v1.09.3 rcvd in email dated July 3rd 2006 and not V1.10.02

So before you start up with the accusation of someone maybe you should verify that they are really one of those with "Audacity"

When I was new to forums and someone posted something like that I wouldn't come back, I would be too intimidated to reply. Today I say screw you and your attitude, so be nice, people come to forums to make friends, get answers, etc.

If you do find that they are using "warez" stuff then you can scold them all you want at that point and refuse further attention or give negative attention.

Edit: Just thought of something. Is there several different levels of registered users? Would that explain why I did not get v1.10.02? If so then I apologize for being a bit harsh in my reply although I still stand by my comments to be nice because they might still be newbies and too intimidated to reply.

@fasttoon

You don't find it odd that you received an email with a link to a version that was over 2 months old at the time of the email? Why have you not sent an email to jdobbs to get your copy of the newest version? I have found that he is very accomodating.

So before you start up with the accusation of someone maybe you should verify that they are really one of those with "Audacity"

Someone doesn't just "get" a version that is 3 months old and just happens, BTW, to be one of the most pirated versions.

If, in fact, through some act of the gods he only just now got the email for that ancient point release then perhaps he too should contact jdobbs to get the current pro release. If that is the case then I do apologize to the OP, but I suspect the suspicions are correct.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...

Today I say screw you and your attitude

There is no need to attack me. The original comment was not directed at you.

@fasttoon

There are a number of reasons why someone might not get an email - his/her email server perhaps being the chief culprit. But there have been several updates since 1.09.3 and it's a bit hard to fathom how someone has not got every email from DVDRB since then (unless it is somehow considered SPAM).

In any event, you'd think that the person might come on and see us all talking about 1.10.2 and wonder why he/she has only 1.09.3 and ask "what happened to my update?". No - instead a question is asked about 1.09.3. I don't reckon it holds water, sorry.

Again, jdobbs deserves better than to be ripped off by folks trying to save a few measely bux. I reckon that the freeware version is the most fully featured version of any software out there in this regard (you can get a full encode done with it, after all) and gives users a real good chance to get to know DVD Rebuilder (http://dvd-rb.dvd2go.org/) before donating. Surely that is sufficient to detract warez? Surely!

@fasttoon

Just checked my records. A notification for v1.10.2 was sent to your registered e-mail address on July 3rd at 2:30pm EDT. I received no non-delivery notification. Usually that means it was "stolen" by anti-SPAM software.

I've just sent the notification to you again. If you don't receive it, please send me an e-mail at dvd-rb@dvd-rb.com

[jdobbs]

Surely that is sufficient to detract warez? Surely!You'd think so... but not hardly. Some people steal just to feel they got something for free.... even if a version is available for free anyhow. Every time a crack is released my donations drop to pretty much nothing (even though most of the cracks don't work correctly if at all).

Go figure.

[katarakt]

Back again, sorry for my late answer but i have to say that first i was two weeks in holiday in beginning of july and after that my modem and motherboard was destroyed by thunderstorm and had to install everything new...so i checked my email and found the notification in my spam folder. Thanks for help, i' don't use dvdrebuilder warez ;)

[blutach]

@jdobbs - very sorry to hear that
@katarakt - you might also want to email jdobbs for the update (there have been 3).

Regards

[fasttoon]

Hey thanks jdobbs, appreciate your good works, just received your email today.

@blacksol, no you're right your comments was not directed to me, however your jumping to the conclusion that this guy is using warez is an assumption on your part. To take your quote, act like an ass, talk like an ass, assume means, but I'm not calling you one despite the fact that you're acting like one. It's comments like this that irk me, not the person the comments. Kinda like what Mel Gibson did.

Please note that poster did come back and said he received the email, I'm sure jdobbs can verify the posters email as well.

So maybe you'll be a decent person and apologize for smearing his reputation with your wild assumption.

So in the future before making up something and assuming your worldview (usually people who accuse are guilty of the very fact) verify the facts.

Lets be nice and friendly to get more people on this forum and buying this fantastic software.

[jdobbs]

I can't confirm whether he is or he isn't.

But let's talk about something else. This subject just continues to degrade my faith in humanity.

[therat]

Would still be nice if you could come up with a method that foiled all the hackers.

Not as if your program costs much and the support is second to none.

Hang in there jdobbs.

cheers

[jdobbs]

The current one seems to apparently work ok. So far it seems they've screwed up every version they've "cracked" (at least all the ones I've seen). Of course I think that's more because they don't know what they're doing. A couple of the "hacks" cause runtime errors, some I know creates a bad REBUILD that won't play, and one even causes DVD-RB to shut down whenever you push "ENCODE" button -- sometimes I wonder if they even test it one time before they post...

Either way I don't fret it. I have no problem with someone spending two hours encoding a DVD that won't play when they are using a hacked version. If they had half a brain they would just download the freeware version. At least it works.

Hmm, that's interesting. I've always been under the impression that the majority of those that use illegitimate software, pirate media, etc. were people that wouldn't have paid for the software/media anyway. If this isn't really the case then unfortunately perhaps the RIAA/MPAA types are actually working in their best interests by implementing DRM and copy protection mechanisms - which I'd imagine most of us here object to. Although obviously the business models of software and digital media are probably quite different, I'd imagine.

[jdobbs]

I don't think that's a fair analogy -- except maybe if you're talking about internet downloads of movies (which I certainly don't condone).

When backing up a DVD you have to have an original in your hand to make the backup. Even the people who might misuse software and rent movies for backup are still paying for the rentals -- and rentals generate revenue for the studios in one way or another.

[Trahald]

Most drm etc disallow fair use backups of legally purchased items to any media i want. That I object to. Rebuilder Pro allows installation on multiple machines. and i can save my personal copy to cd or hard disk easily incase the original i downloaded is damaged. We do not condone downloading copyrighted movies/music or even copying rented movies (although as pointed out the studios do still benefit)

[Malphas]

I wasn't equating Rebuilder's protection mechanism to DRM* or advocating piracy if that's what anyone was thinking.



*Well, other than that they both may help curb unauthorised usage.

[jdobbs]

I didn't mean to imply that. What I was trying to say is that the complaints called out by the studios isn't because they aren't making enough money -- it's because they just want more money. They want to use DRM to do that. If they can get you to pay several times for the same movie (every time you watch it) -- then they're getting closer to their goal.
