Hey.
I just purchased a LiteOn SOHW-832S.

I currently use Nero 6 Ultra Edition or ConeCD 4.3.1.7 for most of my CD burning, but I don't have any experience on the DVD end of things.

So I'm wondering which is the best software to use for copying DVD movies?
Also, should I be using DVD+R or DVD-R?

I'll have to do some reading up on this, but any shared knowledge from you guys/gals would be appreciated.

- RZ

I used DvdXcopy Express; very happy with it. It only copies the title track of the movie; so no menus etc; but then that was a plus to me. Haven't run into any quality issues yet with compression; and everything has fit onto a single dvd.

Before that I used a combination of different tools and it was a headache so I really appreciated the ease of use - start program, insert orginal dvd, let it make an image file, put in blank disk when it asks.

dvd shrink is nice.


free
good features...

check it out.. osrry i dont have a link.. just google it

DVD Shrink and Nero. Work like a charm.

Cool, I'll check it out.

What about for watching DVD's on my computer?
The writer came with "Power DVD 5" and "I Copy DVDs 2".

I use Power DVD 5.
