Please can someone advise me. I have a DMR-E95 DVD recorder with hard disk. The hard disk is nearly full of archived home movies. The disk is also starting to have problems with sound. I need to back up the contents to a multi-media server on my home network. How can I do this please? Backing up to hundreds of DVD-RAM disks is not an option - too expensive and time consuming. Thank you. Chris B.

Anybody know if there's a cheap DVD recorder capable of recording at least eight hours? It's for a video capture application where quality isn't an issue, so a cheap analogue-only dvd recorder from a supermarket would be fine. -- Dave Farrance

Hi folks. I recently transferred a bunch of Super 8 sound home movies to video, using wall projection and firewire from a Sony video camera. The final results (after many trials and experiments) seem excellent to my eye. I'm keen to copy the films onto DVDs and spread them around various family households for viewing and safe keeping. However, whenever I try to save the uncompressed AVI...

Is there any software that can perform simple edits on an mpeg file, such as top- and tailing it and removing commercial breaks, without having to re-encode the whole file. I'm sure it must be possible: 95% of the file is unchanged so you do a byte-for-byte copy, with only a few frames around the edit point needing to be re-encoded. Pinnacle Studio 10 is great for editing, but then takes...

I have an old Sony Digital-8 camcorder, and I'm planning to get a mini-DV model to replace it. I want to be able to copy my old tapes onto mini-DV. Having done a bit of research I know I should be able to do this camera-to-camera if the new camcorder has DV-in and I buy a 4 pin to 4 pin firewire cable, but there is one thing I'm not sure about: how to make the mini-DV camcorder start...

I've tried to copy a film onto a DVD+R but as soon as the transfer is finished, the recorder 'finalises' the DVD so I cannot copy any more onto the same DVD. Is there some way I can get round this problem?

I have an Alba RDVD1000 DVD recorder, which, when I record from the TV onto a DVD+R/W will not then allow me to copy from this DVD+R/W onto a different machine. It keeps showing on screen a security warning. I can copy to tape, but even trying to copy from tape onto another DVd brings the same warning message up Why and what can I do ?

Is it illegal to pass odd my own sperm as Stephen Hawking's and sell it on E:bay? I would imagine there would be a lot of interest from single women wanting to give birth to Hawking's off spring. They would never know the difference until the child was born and then it would be obvious as the baby would be far more handsome than Hawking. It would also be better at running. Baz

Bazza April 1st 08 01:35 PM
You would think that if Hawking was so bloody clever he would invent himself a robot body and transplant his consciousness into the new android form instead of just gliding about in that electric chariot. Lazy *******. Who's going to remember him when he's gone? Not me! Baz

Hi, Recently I was given an ALBA DVD Recorder. It had a DVD stuck inside the drawer. I tested it and sure enough the drawer would not open. Upon removing the cover, I soon saw that the DVD mechanism had exactly the same electrical connections as that in a PC. I removed the mechanism, connected it to my PC and used the My_Computer options to open the drive. I then removed the DVD and...

If you have made a home movie that you've put on DVD and want to shrink wrap it so it looks extra special like it has just been bought in the shops, does anyone know of any places that sell shrink wrap that you can diy yourself at home? E.g. about 10 years ago I used to make my own wine, and you could get plastic tops that go over the top of the bottle and the cork, then what you would do is...

My neighbour Bob last year released his fourth album entitled 'Norfolk Heroes' which is available in Jarrolds and many other stores on the North Norfolk coast. The first track is called 'Down The A149' which describes the various places on that road between Kings Lyn and Cromer. We want to make a video to accompany this song showing clips of the various places mentioned in the song and are...

Hi I'm sure the question "which camera?" comes up quite a lot :) So, with an apology in advance, I am asking it again. I have very little technical knowledge about video cameras. I'm pretty good at filming because I have directed in the past, over ten years ago, for some TV companies. However then of course there was a full crew and so almost no technical knowledge was needed from me. I...

Hi, I'm looking for a free tool that can split an .avi automatically into chunks of less than 2 GB ... in order to copy them to an external HDD in FAT. I've searched Google and found many tools, but none of them really work for me. They are either not free or they don't accept my standard Premiere .avi files or they don't work automatically or they don't work at all! Lenny

I have a project in Nero that I've been trying to burn onto a Dual Layer DVD+R disc. So far unfortunately without success (4 new beer mats!). I have encoded the project and I am just burning the Video_TS and Audio_TS using the burning Rom. So far though upon playback I always seem to have one or two titles that have errors. It might say unexpected DVD error, unable to read part of dvd playback...

I'm thinking of getting an LCD television in the sales. I just have a couple of questions for those more in the know than me. Full 1080 HD Televisions is there a certain size of screen that you have to get or above for full HD, or can you get full HD in most screen sizes? I didn't want to get something too big, maybe only a 26 or 32" screen size. If I was to get a full HD screen, would I still...

When you are making a DVD in NeroVision Express and you already have sound in your main movie which you want to be the main sound for the movie, is it also possible to add audio tracks below to the audio track 1 and 2 timelines so that you could switch to those tracks instead of the main audio on the video timeline? Do DVD players have an option on the remotes for selecting a different audio...

Does anyone know if its possible to move a video file in NeroVision 3 so that it doesn't start at 00:00:00.00? So far I have added a video file to my project but when I try and drag it further to the right on the timeline so it starts at about the 2:20 mark after all the opening titles have been shown, it wont let me move it. Seems to be insisting that the video file starts at zero in...
