Cinavia Full Disc

[Uncfanatic09]

Do you have to have a 50gb disc to remove the cinavia first before you can take it down to 25gb? It will only give me the option to burn it to the bluray burner. You can't rip it to the hard drive first removing the cinavia, and then take it and turn it down to 25gb?

Yep a 50GB disc is needed for now but Fengtao mentioned that the next version should support main movie only. It doesn't actually remove cinavia but creates a copy protected disc so the player is "tricked".
Not sure if or when compression to a 25GB disc will be available, even if possible.

Good thing I read this before doing a full copy of RE to a 25gb
*EDIT* It's a shame that a full copy to 25gb can't be done but it's a step forward. I guess we'll see a spike in 50gb disc sales....ErRrr not, still too expensive lol

Yeah I can't afford 50GB disc either, I'm testing with a re-writable.

We are working on BD-25 solution, should be out soon.

^^ Really good news. Will it be full disc or main movie?

Hopefully I can still split the movie between 2 25gb disks as I like to do.

Cinavia

Is it just the new firm ware updates like for the ps3 that won't play the cinavia. I have a blu ray LG I bought last year will it play in that. I'm going to try burning the other guys onto a 50g disk I buy my 50 off ebay if that helps anybody for lower cost. Paid 28.00 for 5 disk pretty cheap.

Depends on what you consider affordable.. I got some 50gb discs from j-stop on ebay for about 6ea shipped. It's no $1 each like a 25gb but it's the best I can find for now.

I would like to know if the new version works on blu-ray 3d discs with and with out Cinavia. 3d backup was broken on a few builds and cost me a few...

Open DvdFab and on the lower left side of the screen you will see "Title start/end settings" click on the that and it will open ,then select how you want to split movie...ie.. for a 28 chapter movie select chapters 1 thru 14 for the first half and burn... then when that's done, do chapters 15 thru 28 for the remainer of movie.

so this is how you can do cinavia on 25gb discs? by using full disc and splitting them up?

You will still have cinavia, 1 disk or both I don't know. I spend money on blu ray so I want blu ray back, not a compressed disk on regular dvd. Right now I'm doing my older titles, Pirates otc, etc. No cinavia. I don't have ps3 so not a problem for me. Alot cheaper to split than buying 50 gb disk. By the way Pirates otc, movie only, fits on 25gb disk, No problem,no split. Same for toy story3, Ice age. Had to split Transformers 2 and Iron Man. Looks like dvdfab will have the cinavia problem licked for all ways of burning soon.
