AnyDVD and Roxio

[dghundt]

I was able to convert dvds (to divx) directly from my dvd drive using just intervideo dvdcopy with anydvd in the background.

Needing something to burn a copy to a dvd, I installed roxio v.6. Thats when I started getting errors when running intervideo dvdcopy - when I selected the dvd to convert, I received the error -

"this location does not contain supported content, please try another location."

i tried running anydvd in safe mode.
tried not loading roxio on startup
tried uninstalling roxio
tried a couple dvds.
still get the error.

thanks for your help!

The Roxio 6 Suite is OK to have on your machine, but the drag-to-disc program that comes with it is not. Odds are that is still on your machine or at least is in your registry. Please list what is in your Lower and Upper filters:

Or for XP users only,
Click Start, Run
type regedit
Go to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Current Control Set\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

We want what's listed in "LowerFilters" and "UpperFilters". List your Lowerfilters and Upperfilters in your next post.

In fact, that just happened to me! In my case I was cruising along just fine using InterVideo Copy DVD 5 until I got the same message. Now I can't retrieve any "supported content" from my DVD drive or internal drives. I don't know if it was introducing the purchased AnyDVD "key", or was it DVD Shrink that threw things out of whack? All my other DVD burning programs see the DVD drive just fine.

Mystery!

Drag-to-Disc and other packet writing software conflict with AnyDVD as they all try to access the DVD at the same time. That is why the request for posting of the Upper and Lower Filters, so any conflicts can be seen and suggestions made.

You simply can't do this with certain discs. You must use Anydvd ripper first. Click
