[b]URGENT HELP NEEDED![/b]

[indolikaa]

OK, I just opened an account at my local rental store so I could rent DVDs and make copies of them for me and my friends.

I rented The Personal Story of Jack Valenti and ripped all four DVDs to my hard drive. I used DVD Shrink to shrink them down so that the entire collection would fit on one disc, but when I authored the disc, the picture quality was horrible, and it won't play on my DVD player! I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. I let DVD Shrink do a 'Deep Analysis' on each pass, and I purchased only the best media I could find.

Can somebody please tell me what I am doing wrong?

These are the discs I purchased.

Thanks in advance!

You're not doing anything wrong. I back up movies like that all the time and it always works for me. Maybe try fitting more movies on one disc, then it should work properly.

I don't understand. By the time I get all the movies compressed to fit on one of these discs, I'm left with a picture that is composed of 9 pixels and an audio stream that is only 8 kbps in size. And the color depth is lacking, to say the least.

This looks like macroblocking to me. How do I get rid of it?

[Grimey]

sounds like your tv is dirty. blow on it.

Is that safe?

I read somewhere that you should use sandpaper to remove scratches from your DVDs. Maybe I should use sandpaper on my TV as well? The owner's manual wasn't real clear on how to keep the screen clean. It's a plasma TV, so wouldn't blowing on it give me a nasty static electricity shock?

[BJ_M]

i watched star trek and only data and seven-of-9 can properly fix a plasma ...

so you are screwed ...

Ok Indolikaa,
I've been watching this "tom-foolery" for too long now. I'm going to start straightening some things out on this site and that equally illegal www.kvcd.net site. Programs like DVDShrink and the like have cost our actors and actresses millions of dollars in lost revenue. They're practically starving. I am planning to crack down on sites selling blank media as well. The mere thought of being able to record anything reeks of illegality. Like I said before, if you want a backup copy, but another disk. They are getting cheaper and cheaper every day.

But I don't care about the actors and actresses, I only care about myself. And since most of Hollywood hides their money in off-shore accounts, thus avoiding the taxes which fund my government pension plan, why should I give a shit about them?

Mr. Valenti, I am looking for help in this authoring problem. If you don't have any advice to give, please do not waste my valuable time.

Well Mr. Indolikaa,
You've obviously missed out on the whole DMCA thing. Not surprising, I can't even find that term in this site's glossary. Coincidence? I think not. The motion picture industry is bleeding revenue. But finally, we have been able to employ some law abiding citizens to help us find camcorder toting, DIVX warez creating, P2P network pimping post whores such as yourself. So add that to your "sig." Now to track down the perpetrator of this cesspool of pirates. Word from the MPAA police says it's a bald guy named Rick... Tell him I'm coming for him....

[Grimey]

I wonder if Mr. Jack Valenti is actually Indolikaa and he's having a heated arguement with himself.

Word from the MPAA police says it's a bald guy named Rick... Tell him I'm coming for him....

Hilarious!

Mr. Valenti, let me know when Orrin Hatch removes his mouth from your dick long enough that I can enlighten you on some fundamental legal issues surrounding this situation.

Like due process, for instance.

Until then, you might find it more prudent to work on that Collector's Edition DVD of Smokey and the Bandit rather than engage the likes of me and my 'Post Whore Posse' in this public forum.

camcorder toting, DIVX warez creating, P2P network pimping post whores such as yourself. So add that to your "sig."

ROTFLMAO! That's even funnier than Will Hay's "in need of a fist shoved down his throat" signature.

Damn Craig! You blew my cover! I've been waiting a month to use Mr. Jack Valenti. I couldn't believe nobody else took it

(oh and Indo...the arguing with yourself in this thead priceless)

[gitreel]

The Personal Story of Jack Valenti

That must have been a horror story. He doesn't even have to dress up for halloween. He is just naturally scary looking. I wonder if he scares the children and takes their candy?

All I wanted was to archive the life and time of my hero, and you come in here and hurt my feelings. What kind of a palce is this if you can't come in and ask reasonable questions and expect a polite response?


(Unfortunately, I cannot take claim for 'Mr. Jack Valenti' on this one. Someone more devious than myself is involved in this sham... )

I spit my gum out... this is a good one... not sure about those 100 Meg CD's he's using .... 47 per movie... as soon as you sit down you have to swap another one out.

Polite?? I was polite. I am Captain Sunshine, since you obviously don't realize that.

If the truth is too much for you to handle maybe you should tell your parents that the 15 minutes spent making you in the backseat of that rusted out chevy impala was a waste of time and had I known them back then I would have loaned them the $.50 and saved the rest of society the embarassment of you.



I wish I had thought of the Jack handle...that is a good one

[Doramius]

Okay Indo. I'm going to help you out with this whole thing, even Mr. Valenti. First, you state that you are only doing this for a student project for a video project and plan to destroy the disc once you get your A+ and move on to the next project. The next thing is to get some top quality media and burn 4 discs like the originals so you have good copies to go back to in case your HD gets toasted. Then try the revised compression or authoring on the new media and see if that works when converting to one disc. If not, Add a couple more coasters to you cupboard and go back to the drawing board.

For Mr. Valenti: We promise to set Indo straight and move him in the proper direction away from his illegal pirating ways. We know Indo has gotten bad influence of midget clown and plastic goat f**king from many of the member's here. There are even bad influences of ugly old german Ho's and ready mix gravy packets that also have contributed to his corruption. Please excuse these horrible influences that have led him down a dark path and we will also excuse the brown cucumber in your a** along with the Orrin Hatch growth sucking on your 3". The part we cannot excuse is that you are not helping this thread any and are not following the guides of the forum. Even though you have a metal plate in your head and you wrote your response with the microwave going, we do not tolerate such negative remarks unless it's coming from veteran post whores that have been adopted to proper Red Wing associations. With this note, I blue dart in your direction with a little bit of runner down the leg for show.

[northcat_8]

Indo...when you get this figured out...can you upload the ISO's so we can all download and burn them too?

[BJ_M]

WHAT IS A ISOS ?

[DereX888]

Indo... I almost piss in my pants, and Im at work for chris'sake!
:

...but to make fun of Mr. Valenti?(since when he is Mr.) he will come after you and for all those 'backups' ya keep there without proper 'originals' at home

[j-a-w]

I can't believe that nobody has ripped this guy for taking about making backups of rentals. Have the rules changed are what.

[BJ_M]

indolikaa - you are officially now ripped

Looks like that solves this little mystery:

camcorder toting, DIVX warez creating, P2P network pimping post whores such as yourself. So add that to your "sig."

ROTFLMAO! That's even funnier than Will Hay's "in need of a fist shoved down his throat" signature.

You're not supposed to laugh at your own jokes

And I would have gotten away with it too, if it wasn't for you meddling moderators
