DVD Recorders

[Bella Michela]

I recordered a movie the other night. When I played it back, the quality wasn't so great. The picture was very jagged, not sharp at all. I have gotten better copies off VHS. I don't think its the recorder, I have a Samsung. Maybe its the disks?

I would like to see some feedback on this

I dunno...I don't have any problems. How are you ripping the DVD's? What buring software are you using ???

use dvd shrink. works flawlessly. lower the quality on the menu's and extras and it automatically increases the quality on the feature. i've had near perfect results. cartoons are sharp and movies like hellboy were hard to distinguish original from copy. 50x better than vhs ever could be

Im going to have to mess around with it...I have no idea how to use DVD shrink...the disk I burn the movies on are Fugifilm DVD-R


So before I finalize the disk I can get rid of the menus and extras ?

It sounds like you are using a stand alone dvd recorder that you plug into your TV. Eveyone else here is referring to computer type burner. If it is the one that I am referring to then I have a question. What type of connection are you using from your antenna to the recorder? There could be a problem with that.

Use the RE-AUTHOR mode on DVDShrink to get rid of ANYTHING you want.....Here are some great tutorials on how to do that...

PS...This is strictly a PC DVD burner operation.....

What mode are you recording in?

1 and 2 hour mode give good quality.

4 is almost acceptable in a pinch.

6 hour is bad.
