| wrong way sometime might be enough to
| |
| | MPEG-2 (which is a standard for DVD
|
| scratch it and get reading errors as a
| |
| | video) to some format with more advanced
|
| result. Taking in account that some
| |
| | compression such as MPEG-4 (AVI, DivX,

| collectors- or limited-edition DVDs can

|
| of the favorite disks. All that it takes
| |
| | and others. As a result of such
|
| is a PC, DVD-Recorder drive and special

| |
| | DivXMpeg-4 movie on CD or DVD in most
|
| It is rather easy to do if the original
| |
| | cases it will be possible to watch it on
|
| disk is single-layered (DVD-5), but in
| |
| | PC only, as MPEG-4 capable DVD players
|
| case of double-layered (DVD-9) disks it
| |
| | are not too common. Of course, there are
|
| becomes much more difficult; and
| |
| | certain programs that can convert Mpeg-4
|
| unfortunately, most movies are recorded
| |
| | back to DVD, but such double conversion
|
| on such disks.It might seem that
| |
| | is highly unlikely to improve quality.
|
| double-layered recordable disks (DVD+R DL
| |
| | Apart from that, most users usually strip
|
| & DVD-R DL) are the best solution for
| |
| | multi-channel sound during DVD -> Mpeg-4
|
| this problem. However, this solution is
| |
| | conversion and keep only stereo. As a
|
| not available to everyone as double
| |
| | result, watching DivXMpeg-4 encoded movie
|
| layered disks require special

| | on the home cinema doesn't make much
|
| DVD-Recorder drive that can handle them,
| |
| | sense and won't be particularly
|
| and these drives are not too common
| |
| | satisfying too, especially if the movie

| combo or commercial CloneDVD utility)
| |
| | best, since they usually have mono or

| allows copying double-layered DVD on two

| is possible to squeeze double-layered
| |
| | for you now to choose most appropriate

| disk on one single-layered DVD. Of
| |
| | backup method. If you prefer maximum
|
| course, this would involve some reduction
| |
| | quality available, full DVD backup on one
|
| of image quality and stripping of bonus
| |
| | double-layered or two single layered
|
| materials, but such reduction will hardly

| In this case it is possible to save all

| DVD backups on your hard drive by using

| anything happen with original DVD, it
