Rips well, and with a wide variety of options (entire DVD, main program 
only, Region change, etc).

But, getting it back on a playable DVD is the problem.

Even features which are under 2 hours often produce more than 4.7 GB of 
data.

Any specific recommendations as to authoring tools, to produce a DVD 
which will actually play?

I've already encountered situations where a player would accept a +R but 
not a -R.

And, what to do about the 4.7 GB limitation for a single-layer +/-R?

My plan is to upgrade my Lombard with a UJ-845B, which does have 
double-layer write capability, but right now I am limited to single-layer.

My understanding is that there is no way to legally copy your DVD,  
even for home use/ backup copy// free speech/whatever rights we used  
to have.  DMCA trumps them.  See you in Guantanamo prison camp, you  
evildoer.


That said, there is a great util, Mac the Ripper, which is perfect  
for taking DVD movie to your HD for playback on the airplane or  
driving or whatever.  lots of people have positive things to say  
about it on macupdate.com

HTH.

Re: An Apple a day..Keeps us from being Win-Dumb

[Yersinia]

Caleb Cupples and Rick write (respectively),

< I'd do the same with my 190, except for the fact that I still rely on 
it as my primary writing machine. As soon as I get a little newer PB, my 
190 is going to go in the ol' glass cabinet, for sure.>



Even though I actually DID upgrade to a PPC Powerbook (5300c), my 190 
will never get retired as an "ol' glass cabinet" museum piece. I keep it 
in one of my bedside drawers as a "spare" in the event of something 
happening to the 5300c, plus, I occasionally still use it to charge up 
batteries: I plug it in and do that sometimes when I go to write outside 
with the 5300c: the battery I won't be using gets a recharge while I'm 
out. 

As to starting it up for "fun," well, that wasn't my original purpose, 
but earlier this week I wanted to email somebody something I had on it, 
and it did turn out to be fun to actually use it again for something 
other than battery charging. While my 190's primary use was writing (same 
for the 5300c), I HAD set it up for email, chat and browsing and 
occasionally went online with it. I was smiling all the way through the 
process of taking my PCMCIA card modem out of the 5300c and putting it 
back into the 190, sticking the phone wire in the X-jack, doing the email 
with attachment, and signing online with it. And, as I sat there waiting 
for the PPP to connect -- with both the 5300c and G3 next to me, the 190 
on my lap, I felt like that girl in the movie The Net (whose laptop was 
also a Mac Powerbook, BTW). Hahahahaha.
