I just used this demo to do American Pie 2 Unseen.


After ripping the original DVD to my hard drive I left Instant Copy to do its thing; not taking away any of the subtitles or languages etc and leaving default options on. About 10 minutes into it I had to check IRC and after clicking back to InstantCopy the preview picture had gone and the time until completion was going up. Hmm I thought and watched it for another 20 mins until it hit 840 mins left until completion. Well I ctrl alt tabbed and forced this badboy to quit misbehaving so I had to start again. This time I made sure I left it in the foreground and did not touch my PC. Well it was looking quite impressive, checking my video, checking my menus doing its own thing. Took about 3 hours for it to finish and for it to leave a 4200mb pdi image on my harddrive. K so I burnt it @ 4x and played it on my standalone. Sweetness untill the menu came up. The font was missing its dropshadow which made it hard to read and when i entered a sub menu and tried to go back to the original menus the music would change but the graphics would still be on the sub menu. Ok screw the menus lets check the movie quality: excellent - no complaints, much better than DVD2one (no pulsating effect and the blockyness from dark areas has gone) and all chapters intact. Again though when I pressed to go back to root menu during the movie the graphics froze but the menu music played. Well I guess I'll be selling this disk to my granny and waiting for the full thing to come out before I risk another dvd-r .

Original Size = 7.75Gb
Adjusted Size = 4.2Gb
Time to complete = 3hours +/-
System = Athlon 1333 Windows XP 512mb
Comments = It freaked up my menus which was the reason I wanted it Excellent quality movie though.

P.S Although it says limited to 15mins AC3 Audio I got all the audio from the film & extras so I reckon they have rushed it. Hopefully they forgot to implement the 15 day limitation to
