Finally took the step and migrated to SolusOS which seems to be a solid Linux distro. Similar to Linux Mint Debian Edition (LMDE), Solus is based on Debian which I personally like as Debian commands and environment I'm most comfortable with. This could be an easy fix, but whatever it is is...

Hi gang, Has anyone seen the Score DVD? I got it today and it is mind blowing. I highly suggest it to all progressive rock fans in general and especially to Dream Theater Fans. Regards, Yair

I need an external DVD burner for my Mac laptop, but the only one I'm certain will work is a Lacie--one of the more expensive ones, considering I merely want to backup my MP3s. Here's my two-part question: Do the system requirements on the box refer to the burner itself or only the included...

I put a DVD player/burner in my rig some time ago, mostly for installing games. This is actually the first time I have tried to play a commercial DVD on the thing; I got copy of Springsteen's Seeger Sessions which includes a DVD video. Won't play on any of my players, including Nero (which...

How can I do backups to DVD on XP Home Edition? Do I need some third-party software, or is there something built into XP I can use? I've never done full backups, just a system restore disk set, and have done backups of certain important things to CD, but never to DVD. Any help would be...

For the past few days I have been digitizing VHS tapes to copy to DVD. Mostly home video... but I was being annoyed with one piece of software I have (Pinnacle 9.4), and was looking at newer versions of video editing stuff (WinDVD, Roxio, Ulead... and even Pinnacle) when I noticed that newer...

Does anyone know if there's a free piece of software to do this? Incidentally, whilst I was looking, I bumped across this site which has some good free software on it.* Thanks. *I am in no way affiliated with this site, and if you download a virus or something, it's not my fault, okay? The...

I'm trying to create a clip from a DVD and need some advice. I have a DVD that was originally a VHS programme off-air that I transferred to DVD. There is about a 20 second clip in it that I want to convert into either a MPEG or WMV clip (AVI is acceptable but prefer the first two). I'm...

I'm looking at putting together a DVD that will work in a special way, but I'm not sure if it's possible. I know I could do it if it were to be run on a computer, but I want to run it on a DVD player. I don't know if they are capable of it, however. The idea is basically as follows (this is a...

Hi all I notice that there are a lot of new skeptical groups springing up around the world. If you are the founder or president or leader of such a group, please write to Barry Williams of Australian Skeptics, introduce yourself and request a Great Skeptic CD and Water Divining DVD (it's PAL...

hi, I'm running Suse PE 9.2 and have kaffeine working fine for playing files. When I try to open a DVD I get "libdvdread: Using libdvdcss version 1.2.9 for DVD access kaffeine: relocation error: /usr/lib/libdvdcss.so.2: symbol __sprintf_chk, version GLIBC_2.3.4 not defined in file libc.so.6...

I was wondering if any of you could point me to a good DVD on palming. While I have a handful of magic books with sections on palming I have a difficult time w/ them. Maybe it is because I am a leftie or because I am more of a sight learner than reader. Either way, if you could help pls do.:)...

I see some of the "better" / more featured PCs with DVD-R/W but not CD-R/W drives. wtfo? Can you do both w/a DVD drive??

I don't know if this has been brought up before. (if it has then please ignore) On the Matrix: The Ultimate Collection DVD set, there is a DVD (Disc #8 I believe) That covers both the philosophical refreneces in the movies as well as artificial intellegence. (it even has Chalmers briefly...

Question - I have a couple of MOV files. I would like to burn them to DVD. Problem; Nero doesn't really support QT. Well, it does, just not these particular mov files. And I'm too cheap to spend $30 on a program to convert them to AVI (like WinAVI) unless I really have no other choice. Anyone...

"The Amazing Kreskin" is now available on DVD.

I have a bunch of old Laserdisks that I would like to convert to DVD. Some are just not out on DVD (and probably won't be for some time) others I would convert for the hell of it. The question is how? I think that I need a video capture card which would take the s-video out from my Laserdisk...

Okay, how do I make a copy of a DVD? This is just a DVD of a home movie, which I paid a service to create a DVD out of. Now I want to copy it, and am at a loss as to how to do so. I have a copy of Nero, and thought it should have a simple way of doing it, but... not that I can find. I am...

I want to rip the soundtrack from a DVD so that I can listen to it without my computer. As it's only the one DVD that I want to rip, I don't want to buy any software, so I'm looking for a free trial version. The only free trial stuff I've found so far limits the length of a track you can rip...

My brother has been given a DVD drive for his birthday. I installed it for him, but it seems to be having problems playing some DVD's. It plays The Matrix, but doesn't seem to play Apocalypse Now or Yes Minister. The drive is an Asus DVD-E616P. My brother's video card is an ati radeon 7200...

Further to Ian's DVD traumas and Patricio's comment re buggy software, what is the best product? My version of Nero won't copy to DVD, nor will Windows (although I think that's my fault for messing around with it), but two other programs work fine. Any top tips from the ubernerds?

I'm about 99% certain. But before I send it back to Dabs I would appreciate the thoughts of people who know somewhat more than me about these sort of things. The problem is that when I double click the drive it simply gives me a message saying "Please insert a disk into drive E". It happens...

I've never had one before. I would prefer to buy over the Net and I live in the UK. Which is the best dvd writer?

I honestly wasn't sure where to post this, but I'm pretty sure it's of general interest to the forum members and I haven't seen anyone else mention it, so: Showtime has announced the release of the second season of P&T's "Bull****" (the messaging program censored the title!!! :confused: ) on...

Got a brand-new computer. A Philips DVD+RW DVD drive and a Samsung CD-R/RW drive. You'd think there'd be a simple way to transfer VHS tapes to DVD but NO!! The DVD Xpress VidCapture and the Ulead VideoStudio 7 freeze at the slightest anomaly, the Roxio Media Creator I just bought won't even...

Well, there are dvd screener rips of F911 out for download. Anyone who doesnt want to pay good money to see a movie that goes into Florida 2000 conspiracy theories (most of which have been long debunked) and then going into black disenfranchisement (that phantom boogeyman which has never been...

What's the best hardware / software combo to take all my digi cam photos (mostly JPEG) and movies (mostly AVI) and compose them on a DVD, (slide / movie show kinda thing) so as to send to relatives who lack computers (and/or sufficient computer skills), but have DVD player? I've only used Toast...

i am running suse 9.1 , but i am finding it quite tricky getting original dvd's to run on it . i am a linux newbieish , anyone with the same experience .

... what the f--k was that movie all about???

first off, i'd rather pay full price then get up at 3 AM to secure my place in line to save a few bucks secondly, i hope that i'm never that pathetic a human being to literally walk over someone to grab a piece of electronic hardware on sale. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,104373,00.html...
