How do I preview before burning?

[Janset]

Hi all.

It's been a long time since visiting this site, but like all good things, we can't stay away.

Now my question.

The other night I thought that it may be a good idea to back up one of my over loved movies which I did with another brand program. The end result was that all went well except there were no voices, music yes, speech no.

So I decided to fall back to me faithful DVD Decrypter, I made/saved 2 copies, one was in ISO mode and the other the usual "File "method,

My question here, after burning 2 coasters before I used DVD Decrypter, rather than burn more coaster from the Decrypter backups, is there any way that I can play the copied versions from the HD prior to the actual burn from either the ISO copy or the "File" copy? :scared:

Actually VLC Media Player can play both the iso and the files.

Hi there.

Thanks for the prompt reply, but pardon my ignorance but what is VLC Media player, where do I get it from and is it a freebie? :p

Hi there.

I am ashamed to say I never even thought of using Google to search for this. :thanks:

While VCL Player is one of the best, (if not the best) video player, you could still mount the image using daemon-tools - http://www.daemon-tools.cc/

However if you decide to stick with VCL Player, then i'd say that would be the easiest solution. There are other benefits from using VCL, such as not having to fiddle around with codecs, unless you do encoding.

Hi!back up one of my over loved movies which I did with another brand program. The end result was that all went well except there were no voices, music yes, speech no.Why the secrecy? What software did you use?

If it was DVD Shrink, you likely erroneously DE-selected the main movie audiostream and selected a "music-only" audiostream by mistake...

Hi Setarip_rip.

I used DVDFab Decrypt, but I have since found that that was not causing the problem, (at least I don't think)..

It appears that there was some corrupted files somewhere.

At the time I only had Win XP SP2 installed. I have since installed SP3 and everything came good. I did not install it with "the fix" in mind, I just thought it was about time I did the update.

More arse than class I should think, but it's fixed, that's the main thing. :D
