![]() Hi, Thanks for your reply. I get the following when I pass my mouse over the folder called 'EDITED' DVDRip.XVID-EDITED_[BT-GM]_[EFNET] Size: 0 bytes Folders:Sample,subs Files b-polly.nfo,b-polly.r00,b-Polly.r01,b-Polly.r02... I haven't a clue what this means ? What I am looking for is to download dvd's burn them for private use and also watch them on the PC, so my hubby who is disabled can watch them. I thought it was a matter of downloading them and saving them to the hard drive then burn them to DVD disc so he can watch them when he's well. I thought it was as straight forward as that but I haven't managed to download anything but the one mentioned and I have been trying for days. Can you tell me if there is an easy and uncomplicated way to do the things mentioned above and do I have to do some settings in Limewire to get a better success rate. Once again thank you for your help with this frustrating problem. as advised above...RTFRulez Last edited by Peerless; July 16th, 2004 at 05:15 PM. |

![]() The 'Rip' process sounds as though it was done on a pc Windows platform. Please supply the following details: your computer platform (Windows/Mac/other), your hardware & OS details very specifically!, & what video type & burner type softw's you have? I'm not a pc Windows person personally, so details of the output files are a bit diff't to what I come across. Other option: My partner (x-TV producer) borrows many dvd's from 'BlockBuster' but doesn't always get time to see the xtras - particularly for 24 hr loans. So I temporarily back them up onto dvd-rw until we get the time. Perhaps you could consider something similar. Or otherwise supply the above details & we (hopefully others on Windows) will suggest something. By the way, AVI's are generally (but certainly not always) VCD standard. It's possible to save into AVI at high-res. Try burning your files to VCD/DVD using RW media & see if it works on your DVD/VCD player. (I must xplore this area & see exactly what is available & what quality the best offer. It won't be the original quality & will be downsized to fit either onto CD/DVD (dvd-5 format).) |
