I tried o back up my copy of the recent version of "TMNT" Blu-ray which is 31GB in size. I read about all the problems everyone seems to be having, so I tried the following:
1. I used AnyDVD HD to rip the Blu-ray as an ISO file to a separate large hard drive I purchased for future Blu-ray back-ups.
2. I used CloneBD to create a cloned copy of the entire ISO file, so that I would have the entire original on a Blu-ray disc of less than 25GB size. This seemed to perform flawlessly (compressed to 22.1GB); however, when I tried to view it on my computer using Virtual CloneDrive to mount the compressed ISO it kept shutting down after initial intro info on piracy, etc.
3. I decided that perhaps the disc will only work on a stand alone player, so I burned a 25GB blank BD-R using ImgBurn and the compressed ISO file just generated above.
4, I played this cloned Blu-ray copy of TMNT on my Sony stand-alone Blu-ray player with perfection except that there was no audible English audio, just audio for 3 other languages and one English audio which is the play-by-play commentaries of the director. SO, THE ONE AUDIO I DID WANT WAS NOT MUXED AFTER DEMUXING IN THE CLONE BD PROGRAM!!! What gives? Why did I waste my money on the CloneBD. After all I can use AnyDVD HD and the ImgBurn for all Blu-ray discs I want to clone that are less than 22.3GB and for those that are larger I can use demuxing/muxing free software to compress the greater than 22.3GB file down to less than that amount and then use ImgBurn to burn the compressed files onto a blank 25GB BD-R disc. This works great each time, but is time consuming, whereas Clone BD does it more quickly (but still rather slowly)...BUT the result is a "coaster"
This is ridiculous! I'm very disappointed. This should never have been released until it functioned properly at least 98% of time. Base on feedback in the Forums, I'm getting the impression that success in using
ConeBD is probably less than 5%. Can't we at least sort out the problems more quickly? Did you guys bite off more than you can chew??? https://forum.slysoft.com/images/smilies/frown.pnghttps://forum.slysoft.com/images/smilies/frown.png
