The Ultimate DVDR Forums

If I want to get this on to a DVD disc can I merely copy the HD folder as created by AnyDVD? or does it need a special burn procedure?

Thanks

Nigel

are we talking bluray or hd dvd ? the problem you have is without a true hd burner and of course media then no you wont be able to copy it to disc . however you could convert it to another format like hd wmv or bluray wmv

Yes thanks for that.
I niavely thought that I might burn it to a DVD disk but of course if Blu-Ray needs a special drive then it must need a special disc!
But what can I use to make a bluray wmv ?

Thanks for the advice.

a hell of a lot of patience and time there is ways in the tutorial section at the top of the forum

After using AnyDVD to rip directly to my Hard Drive, I get the same greyed out box as mentioned in several posts (earlier) within this thread.

I understand the mounting of an ISO, but defeats the purpose (IMO) of having a HTPC with backed up media.

Has anyone resolved this issue?

I noticed this thread is almost a month old without a resolution.
I also have the "greyed out" issue.
The rip was my first so is there a solution ??

I am having the same issue as many others. I ripped a Bluray disk to my HDD using AnyDVD HD and when I open up Cyberlink PowerDVD Ultra v7.3 and try and view the movie from my HDD folder, the "OK" button is grayed out.

What am I doing wrong?

Edit:
I updated to Cyberlink PowerDVD Ultra v8 this afternoon. I still have the same issue. However, I can make a playlist and view the individual files. I can't view the movie in its entirety...only one track after the other and it is really a pain. I know there are a lot of individuals that have been at this point and figured out how to do this. I know I am close, but I have hit a wall. Can anyone steer me in the right direction to be able to watch a ripped movie off the HDD? I would really appreciate any help. Thanks!

Hi

I have the same issue with Pdvd 7.3 and AnyDVD hd. BD will not play from HDD. DVD is ok.

Any advice please?

Hi
You need to mount the iso, using something like Slysoft's VirtualCloneDrive (free).
http://sandbox.slysoft.com/beta/Setu...eDrive5423.exe
Having installed the above, right click on iso. click on Open With & select Mount Files with Virtual CloneDrive.
(You'll know if this has worked as AnyDVD will scan, as if you've just inserted a disc.)
Then with PowerDVD 7.3 you can play like you would any disc.

I figured this out last night using the same method posted by Zebadee. Thank you.
