Users can download the latest version 3.2.4 from http://www.idealdvdcopy.com/dvd-copy.htm and install it then have a try. When copying, please ensure your computer is connected to internet because our program needs to access our server to get the decryption files. If your anti-virus, firewall or monitor software prompt you that Ideal DVD Copy is trying to access internet, please allow it, or you will be failed to copy the recent protected new DVDs.
And “A Christmas Carol” is special. It is made bad in the factory. So even with the decryption file, you’ll still meet read error on the normal cell. On this occasion, please just click “Yes” to continue, then Ideal DVD Copy will skip the bad sectors. If you goet “too many read errors” in the end, please try to copy the DVD from another DVD drive or computer, maybe other more error-tolerant dvd drive can read out the data.
If you want to compress “A Christmas Carol” with full disc mode, you should follow the steps below to avoid unexpected errors because this DVD also has a special structure: Click “Configuration” button which is beside the “Start” button, then click “Burning” tab, choose “Internal burning engine 1” from the “Burning engine” dropdown list, then switch to “Shrinking” tab, check custom, and change 4482 to
YouTube has always been one of my favourite sites on the Internet and so I’m extremely disappointed that a row between the site owners, Google, and the Performing Rights Society has culminated in them prohibiting UK users access to thousands of music videos. Apparently the two groups were unable to find “mutually acceptable terms for a new licence” as PRS had proposed new payment terms resulting in YouTube paying a greater figure to show the video than it makes from the advertising displayed on the same page. The sad fact is that until terms are settled, UK viewers will simply reach a message saying ‘the video you have chosen isn’t available in your country’ whenever they try to play a music video.
The PRS, along with TV licensing, is one of those groups that I’m surprised are allowed to exist in their current guise within the modern day world. If we can focus on the subject of TV licensing briefly, I have a television which I use for watching DVD movies and Sky channels only. Unfortunately as it is physically capable of receiving BBC channels I am obliged to pay a yearly fee that goes directly to the BBC. It does however seem absurd that a company can choose to broadcast an unencrypted signal to my house without my permission and then have the audacity to bill me for it.
Whilst I see a need for such a group as the PRS my disappointment over the YouTube issue is increased as it seems they have let their power get the better of them lately. I hear whispers of charges being issued to community centres and football clubs for traditional songs being sung on the premises simply because they had been recently covered by modern artists. As the BBC is funded by the TV license fee so the very idea that workplaces with radios should hold a public entertainment license just doesn’t sit right with me as everybody has the right to listen to it at no additional charge. To me it seems the PRS potentially endangers commercial radio with this attitude as advertising revenue relies upon viewing figures that will certainly drop if workplaces are forced to switch off their radios to avoid a fine/fee.
In the past I have reviewed a site called Vimeo (www.vimeo.com) which offers an extremely high quality sound and video quality with more than 13,000 videos updated daily. I have tended to find the emphasis on Vimeo being unique and creative content and while there are some truly fantastic videos to be found on their site the fact that commercial videos aren’t allowed means it cannot be considered a viable replacement for YouTube.
Another video streaming site of note is Daily Motion (www.dailymotion.com) is certainly a viable alternative and was registered about the same time as YouTube. Alexa currently ranks Daily Motion at 113th on its listing of top sites online with YouTube at 3. Also, the amount of videos hosted is not as awe-inspiring but with around 20,000 new videos (including plenty of HD and official content) being uploaded daily it is certainly growing.

For such a diminutive (4′ 11″) frame, character actor Leslie Jordan has a tall propensity for scene-stealing. He hails from the South, as his dead-giveaway drawl quickly exposes, and was raised in a highly conservative, deeply religious atmosphere in Chattanooga, Tennessee. His father, a Lieutenant Colonel with the Army, was killed in a plane crash when he was only 11. Uncertain about his direction in life, an inescapable talent for high camp, not to mention an impish mug and pocket-sized structure ideal for commercials, must have inspired Leslie enough to risk taking on Hollywood in 1982. Following training with acting coach Carolyn Barry, who ran the Professional Artist’s Group during the 80s, he…
