Tech help please
Everyone is always so nice to help. I just bought a dvd burner drive and lets say that i'd like to copy other dvds, but the dvd i want to burn is 6+GB and the blank dvd i want to burn it holds only 4.7GB. keep in mind i want my burned dvd to play in standard dvd players. what is the best method of achieving my goal? i don't need all the other special features on the dvd, just the movie. suggestions?

3. I 'think' you'll need authoring media if you want the DVD ...

....to be read/played on all systems.

The blank media is expensive. It's just as cost effective to just buy your own copy in addition to being less risky.

4. Go to this website for dvd burning....
It's FULL of valuable information. There are also a lot of shareware out there that will do almost the same thing that dvdxcopy does.
