would rene and co somewhere down the line consider an ISO output function on dvd2one this would be great, it would mean to back up a dvd we would only have to use dvd decrypter and dvd2one to get the job done.

thanks

To what advantage?
Currently, I'm skipping DVDD altogether thanks to AnyDvd in the background, and burning with C2D (which can be auto-plugged/started after processing-- if one doesn't care about individual titling). This is about as easy as it gets...

I also dont get it - what do you need an ISO for ?
Either burn directly from d2one with copy2dvd or let d2one create the dvd folder on harddrive - ready to play in softdvdplayer or ready to burn with your favourite burningtool or ready to modify with ifoedit. No need to create an ISO for anything - creating an ISO would only introduce an extra step, by creating a file that you would either have to mount to testplay or extract to modify the files in it. Makes no sence to me.
If its important to you to have an ISO file - its easy to create an ISO from the DVD-folder created using any number of tools on the market - but I dont see a reason for d2one to do it.

(which can be auto-plugged/started after processing)
how can i do this? theres no copy to dvd function on dvd2one anymore?

1: rip dvd with dvd decrypter
2: process with dvd2one (image file)
3: burn with dvd decrypter (iso or img etc etc)

end of story. whats so hard to understand?

Also dvd decrypter if free copytodvd is not and i did say "consider" i didnt say that was a must have option, i think it would be a handy feature, if you dont agree fair enough.

So the .iso-output for D2O would be to avoid the purchase of a commercial burning proggie.
I get your drift--but I'm left curious as to why you wouldn't have a burn program from burner-purchase, and/or why you wouldn't need a commercial program anyway (for other purposes...)?

ill say it again

"i did say "consider" i didnt say that was a must have option, i think it would be a handy feature, if you dont agree fair enough"

iam not hear to argue with anyone i just wanted to ask a simple question stupid as it may sound to you.

Hey--I wasn't taking any such tone...
I didn't answer that only because I had to fire it up to check my memory (which is not as 'keen' as it once was...!). That, and I had to split to dig in a repair to a well-pump line. Sorry...
My burner is in a seperate burn-boxen dedicated to the task--I have D2O 1.2.3, and the checkbox for "Burn with CopyTo..." is still present and accounted for. This automates the process somewhat (if one puts the blank in the designated burner ahead of time). Unfortunately, I no longer can use this as an unattended burn-process because I must enter an individual dvd-title for my copies (C2D cannot yet insert the appropriate title automatically, and my mega-changer needs individual titling so as to build it's menu--I can't just name everything "MY_MOVIE"/etc.).
Incidentally, I have nothing but praise for Copy2Dvd as a burning app. DVDD-iso works really well, but C2D is a terrific 'partner' to D2O (especially combined with AnyDvd). Never a coaster...even with hacked Pioneer firmware for 2x-burns on 1x media. I just hope they can incorporate an auto-title into C2D for a painless unattended copy-process.

The Automatic butn to C2D is still there for me in version 1.2.3. and it still works

In fact as of last week you do not need to *buy* a commercial burning software package to burn the processed files to DVDR.

Use Burnatonce 0.98 as it now does DVD, it even makes the AUDIO_TS & VIDEO_TS folders for you, just simply transfer all your files to the vid folder and burn. Works great too!

guys theres no copytodvd function on my version of dvd2one, ive downloaded it again and still nothing?
i did a total re-install of my software a couple of weeks back and havent re-installed copytodvd yet that must have something to do with it? does copytodvd have to be installed before the button appears in dvd2one?

propably it does

btw. as reply to this:

Nothing really - it was just that my workflow is different - as I also work with common capturing/authoring dvd's , I prefer creating dvd-folders instead of images. A dvd-folder is easier to work with if you want to test or edit the dvd-structure futher.

And I wasnt bashing you or your ISO wish in any way - I was only expressing my point of view of prefered workflow - but if you feel you need d2one to be able to make an iso - then fine by me

I would find the ability to make an ISO image useful but am not sure which tool would do the job. Has anybody got any suggestions??

Also, with regard to Joliet and UDF etc, what settings should I use for ISO creation so that the ISO will be OK for playing on standalone players??

TIA

You probably don't have (see) the box for copy to dvd due to a problem with D2O at higher resolutions (1280x1024 or more) with LCD screens at higher DPI. It can get lost as D2O doesn't adjust to sizing!

Cheers!

Make Sure you have a working and updated copy of CopyToDVD on your system. Then you will see the burn option in DVD2one.

thanks

Burnatonce :

is free, makes .iso's AND burns well itself (or so I read...).

You can convert the files generated by DVD2One to an ISO image by using a very simple and straightforward program called ImgTool Classic (free for download on the web).
Just move all the DVD2One generated files in a VIDEO_TS folder then start ImgTool.
in ImgTool select the parent folder of the VIDEO_TS folder as source, type a path + filename for the ISO image to create, for example c:\mymovie.iso and a label for the disc. Then build the image.
You can write this ISO image using DVDDecrypter, Nero, etc...

thanks jay
but the point of this topic was to reduce the process of backing up dvd's down to just two programs (dvd2one & DVD decrypter) not to introduce another step or program to the process.

I only use one program to burn to dvd and that program is called DVDDecrypter, and it's free.
It'll be very usefull if future release of DVD2one has an option to output to a .ISO file and this ISO must have two folders: VIDEO_TS and AUDIO_TS

Thanks-G2345C

I've noticed that many newer dvd's/movies are no longer including the (apparently 'useless') AUDIO_TS folder. If anyone still has one of those rare players that require such, I imagine they are being forced to Upgrade...
Copy2Dvd seems a great 'deal' to me, as does D2O and AnyDvd.
I don't 'get' the emphasis on Free when it comes to this stuff.
I shudder to think how much cash I have wrapped up in media and dvd's...add in rentals, component and other inter-connects, then mega-changer/6.1 receiver/plasma/burner/etc. And my (considerable!) time has some value, as well...
The cost for the underlying programs making it all workable/secure seems insignificant.
