Anyway to backup TV shows?

[captainken]

I don't have any problem backing up Blu-Ray movies, but when I try to back up Blu-Ray TV show discs I have problems. I have been trying to back up my Twilight Zone Season 1-5 Blu-Ray discs. I can rip them to the hard drive with no problem. The discs are all between 30GB to 40GB and I can't seem to compress them. I can burn them to a Double sided Blu-Ray disc (50GB), but when I try to compress them to a single sided (25GB) disc it never seems to work right. Anyone know a way to do that?

Hi captainken

Open Fab click the Click the Green √ at top right corner of the DVD Fab screen, and open Common Settings > General >A/V Codec, put a check in Disable all GPU codes and make sure they are set to Software, while here Disable Lightning-Recoding restart Fab and try again.

Hope this helps

Thank you so much, I did just what you said and it work perfect. It was just stalling during the copy process before but now it is working great. I am not sure what was happening? When I finish the TV showes should I go back to the old setting for movies or leave the setting as they are now? (it worked find on the old setting before for movies)

[CBR929]

Hi captainken
Glad this helped you.
You should leave the settings the way they are now.

Can I ask why it is preferred to disable all optional features, such as lighting encoding, and CUDA? I mean, why would the developers of DVDfab even implement those kind of features if it never works when you use them?

[shmn]

And should all of us disable those features? Or is this recommendation only for the original poster based on his log files?

[CBR929]

Hi all
I'm not sure of all the reasons but what I have seen with some members disabling Cuda and Lightning-Recoding helps some users who have just an on-board graphics card where it may struggle compared to a GPU used in a PCI slot and even then they still have problems.
