11/28 can dvd burners burn store bought DVDs w/ standard software or do you
need elite pirated software?
\_ doesn't elite pirated software just mean a pirated copy of
standard software? anyway, you can't directly copy store bought
DVD movies; you'd have to get some tools to decrypt the DVD if
it's encrypted, yank out the audio/video streams you need,
make sure the stuff you want fits onto a DVDR, and then burn it.
not sure about the Xbox/PS2 DVD burning...
\_ http://www.doom9.org . the documents there have a blind-men-feeling-
up-an-elephant quality, but if you can do cs at berkeley, you
should be able to puzzle things out.
\_ burn store-bought DVDs? What are you asking? Yes, you can burn
to store-bought DVD[+-]RW? media. Where else would you buy it?
Now, if you're asking if you can *copy* commercial DVDs, then no
not exactly. Commercial DVDs are typically pressed dual-layer
discs; consumer hardware can burn only a single layer, so you
either need to recompress or split the movie into parts. And
elite pirated software? That would imply that there's commercial
software to do such things. |
