Which is better quality

[Pantherz_78]

Hey just wondering which would give me a better quality dvd backup. Also give opinion on any other programs that would help or be better.

Its between the instant copy guide: here (http://www.doom9.org/index.html?/mpg/ic8.htm)

or the dvd2one guide here (http://www.doom9.org/index.html?/mpg/dvd2one.htm)

you could give reJig a try. not sure if there'd be a quality difference, but it's another option for you (it's very fast, and has full DVD backup capabilities).

there's others to be found in the "one-click DVD backup" forum.

[dragongodz]

asking "whats best" is also against the forum rules.

there are plenty of peoples opinions from trying the different transcoders in the one-click DVD backup forum. so have a read and then try some out as even the commercial ones have demo/trial versions you can test.

Try DVDShrink. Its easy and very good quality. Oh and its free.

I prefere Instant Copy 8.0 than DVDshrink 3.1 or Nero Recode. But I didn't compare with DvdShrink 3.2.

I will be good if we can have a comparaison between a full dvd backup

DVD-9 to DVD-5 using

1 - CCE
2 - Nero Recode
3 - ProCoder 2.0
4 - IC 8.0
5 - DVDShrink

Honestly the only ones worth looking at are CCE (Using Rebuilder), DVD Shrink, and IC8. Nothing else really comes close. As IC8 and Shrink both do a check for artifacts introduced by transcoding, and no other transcoders do that yet. It greatly improves quality but slows them down some. For the best quality use DVDRebuilder with cce sp. BUt that is totally re encoding it so that takes the longest (upwards of 8 hours possibly depending on your computer).

[survivant]

yes with CCE it take lto of times.. but that depend on the quality setting the user choose. If he want to use 6 passes, it will take him 3 days, but that's ok if the quality is important for him.

That's my case. I don't care the time it will takes, I want to appreciate the reencode DVD.

I used ProCoder 2.0 to reencode my PAL movies to NTSC movies and the quality is amazing. That's why I'm looking for a way to replace CCE by ProCoder, but I didn't find one.

DVDShrink 3.2 with the new AEC options is now as good as and sometimes better then IC7/8. It also is far more reliable than IC.

hey there surviant

just had a random thought,......

could't you use RB to do whatever it is your goal is then save that to your hard drive rather then burn it out to Disc, then run the output thru procoder to go from PAL to NTSC ? and then burn the procoder output ?

Of course i have never used procoder so maybe it does not work in this way , but if your only converting standards surely it is a case of a simple full copy of the title with everything left intact ??

intriguing idea thou........

While on windows i use DVD Decrypter/DVD Shrink/Gordian Knot, this suffices for all my needs so far. :)

i think is dvdshrink, because still keep closed-caption feature
