Q:
Can DVD movies be
played on a standard DVD player?
A: Most DVD-COPIES can be
played on a standard DVD Player, provided the DVD player
supports Video CD (VCD). Most DVD Players manufactured within
the last two years, support the standard Video CD format. Refer
to your DVD Player owners manual for more information.
Q: How many
CDR's are required to burn one DVD?
A: That depends upon the length of the DVD video, and whether or
not you plan to play the CD in a conventional DVD Player using
Video CD technology. If you want to store the movie in a
compressed MPEG or DIVX format and replay the movie on your
computer, or computer to the TV, then one CD can be sufficient
with specific compression technologies. But if you want to store
the format in VCD and play it on your console DVD player, then
two CD's will typically be required to hold a full feature
length DVD (2 - 2 1/2 hours). You can store (depending on the
CD-R) up to 80 minutes of video on one CD-R in VCD format.
Q: How long
will it take to copy & burn a DVD?
A: The time required for decoding will vary depending upon the
speed of your computer and the level of detail in the DVD. Your
computer will be processing many gigabytes of data and when you
consider the amount of data involved, the time required for the
process is actually quite minimal. Faster computers can
typically decode a 2 hour movie in less than four hours. Slower
computers will take longer. However, the process does not
require your constant attention as you can begin the process
before you go to bed or while you're at work. For the average
computer, running a Pentium III 850 MHZ with 128MB of Ram, you
can expect the entire process to take between 4-6 hours for an
average two hour movie.
Q: Will my CD retain the same quality and
digital stereo that is on my DVD?
A: Actually, VCD quality is much better than VHS, but not quite
as good as DVD. Some can tell the difference, while others
can't. The audio portion is recorded in true digital stereo and
you will retain the same aspect ratio of a DVD. Many of our
customers maintain a library of DVD Videos on their computer
hard drives as well. This allows them to make an exact copy of
the original DVD, video and audio! So there is no difference
between a DVD VOB file on your hard drive and the VOB file on a
DVD. They are IDENTICAL in every way!
Q: What is a VCD?
A: VCD stands for "Video Compact Disc". Basically, it's a CD
that can hold 650 or 700mb of audio and video data. In short,
this means it is similar to a DVD, in that it is digital and can
contain video data. Even though a VCD's audio and video quality
are not as good as a DVD, most people cannot tell the difference
between a VHS and a VCD movie. Anyone else who does know the
difference will say VCD is better than VHS. VCD can also be
played on most console DVD players connected to your television.
Q: What is DivX?
A: DivX is a codename for the MPEG-4 compression technology
developed by DivXNetworks, Inc. (aka Project Mayo). DivX is
similar to VCD in it's video quality, but almost anyone will
tell you it's not as good. This is basically because of the
difference in resolution. All televisions display on a 640x480
resolution. Computer monitors are typically set to 800x600 and
1024x768. DivX cannot be played on standalone console DVD
players. This is one of the strongest points against it. Most
people prefer the option of sitting on their couch and watching
movies on their television, as opposed to their computer screen.
DivX is ideal for those who travel, or prefer the direct
availability of DivX movies over the internet.
Q: Will DVD Easy Copy work with all
CDR-Burners?
A: DVD Easy Copy has been tested with most major CDWriters, and
has been found to be compatible with all of them.
Q: Is the DVD Copy process complicated?
A: No, DVD Easy has 3 three easy steps to copy and burn your
DVD's. If you want to view your movies only on your computer,
there are only 2 steps required.
Q: Do I need a DVD Burner?
A: No, you don't need a DVD Burner to copy DVD's.
