Is it safe to say that clone Cd makes a 100% perfect copy of the original DVD as long of course that you are using a DL DVD disk? Will it be playable on a HD player? :D

click http://forum.slysoft.com/showthread.php?t=327 and follow the steps (step by step)

And yes, that is pretty safe to say with respect to movies (except that Anydvd will remove some of the protection).

It will play on anything that plays dvds.
 
Thanks for the reply and link, just wanted to make sure.

I use Clonecd with Verbatim +R DL blank media for most of my backups. That is a very lazy, quick, and effective method for making backups.

WS,

I just realized that all my bu's on DVD+R DL play on my dvd player, Sony 1998 and on my pc, but will not play on my Toshiba DVD Recorder-2006. Your thoughts?

First, if the backup is playing in a standalone dvd player or on your computer that means Clonecd worked.

The most common reason why you're having this problem (if the backup doesn't work in a standalone dvd player) is due to a compatibility issue between the blank media you're using and whatever you're using to play the backup in (standalone dvd player, for example). Basically your dvd player, dvd-rom drive, etc. doesn't like the blank media you're using (or if you're using +R media, you didn't change the booktype to "dvd-rom"). You can try choosing other blank media (+r instead of -r, for example, and change the booktype to "dvd-rom")--or buy a different standalone dvd player (or a different dvd-rom drive, burner, etc.).

If you're using dvd-r DL media and your standalone dvd player gives you a message similar to ""Play Prohibited, please check disc", use dvd+r DL media instead and change the booktype to "dvd-rom" (see "b)" below).

a) Are you using junk blank media? If you're not using Verbatim+R DL blank media with Clonecd, then chances are the answer to this question is "yes".
b) Click this and read FULLY (especially take a look at point 4 for more information on bitsetting/booktyping, but all points are very important)

The same factors also apply to why the backup doesn't play in your computer (but there can be other factors including buggy or poorly installed dvd player software, bad drivers, etc.).

It's also possible the playback device/player that can't play the disc is slowly dying.

BINGO!

I forgot that I have to check and make sure that I set the booktype to DVD-ROM. I did this in IMGBURN the first time I used Verbatim +RDL and forgot that I have to make sure it is always set to DVD-ROM. Once I learned my lesson, I was able to backup my copy of Bourne Ultimatum. Thanks for your help.

In reality, the original DVD would be more playable then a copy? due to the manufacturing Dye and or writting on the dvd would be deeper burned on the Disk, or is this false???

Trying to get a feeling of the Clone Cd and the DL disk.

The reflective layer used in the disc would play a factor in determining that question. I would probably lean towards the original dvd being more "playable", but that's a bit tricky to determine in some cases.
 
As the old saying goes, their is nothing better then the original, but perhaps clone might be the best next thing?8)
