Thanks for your post.. To answer your question, I have c2011, not c2011 pro. Is it possible to duplicate or copy existing blu-ray media with 2011 (not pro) and the writing plug-in?

I agree that the info on the plug-in needs a bit more detail.. I need to ask a question.. It is a long story but temporarily, I have been elected to take the hi-def footage captured via video cam and turn this into blu-ray disks for an organization I am active with. I assume that the plug-in will allow the creation of this media? The few sentences in the description says it does. I assume you use videowave and / or my dvd and the plug-in just handles the disk access? I also need to copy some of the previously created media. The source files are not available at the moment, only the created media. There is about 3 weeks worth of events that have been created but multiple copies were not made to distribute to the groups members. Before I purchase the plug-in for my license of creator 2011, will it allow me to create & burn blu-ray and will it allow the reproduction of previously created media? Anyone have this plug-in and can discribe it in a bit more detail? Edit: I just saw there are two plug-ins.. One for playback & one for burning? Is this right.. Does one include the other?

the program makes a copy to use for it's purposes and leaves the origional file untouched.

Slow down your burn speed. 4x ~ 8x (dvd) will give you better compatibility across players and will also resolve the end of burn lockup. I have never had a problem with cd's but a slower burn speed may help with cd's also.

Just an FYI.. The downloaded install file does not have sp2 slipstreamed into it. After I installed and registered the software, it updated itself to sp2. I'm not complaining.. Just saying incase someone else may have the same question.

I just purchased (download) creator 2010. In preparation of installation on a fresh win7 setup I came here to check out what problems I may run into with the install. I see that there are service packs available. Do I need these? Because I just purchased and downloaded the software yesterday would the service packs be included or built into the downloaded files? A cd/dvd that was manufactured weeks / months ago would probably need the service packs. I realize I could install and see but I would like to be prepared and have everything I need so I can start and finish the install in one session.

You can also capture your VCR output by using the RF connector (Coax). Connect the "To TV" coax connection of the vcr to the antenna/cable connection of the tuner card. Set your tuner card channel to 3 or 4, whatever you VCR plays on, and you are golden. Some may argue that the quality of the capture may not be up to snuff. Remember first that you are capturing a VCR tape. In doing the above, I see absolutely no difference in quality between playing the tape, and watching the capture. Actually I think the tuner card takes away a bit of the graininess.

That Sucks!

Just being facetious...

After following the provided link posted by Aprasad.... I don't see any hoops but then again I never tried to return anything directly to MS. Seems pretty simple though. Even covers hardware.

Don't want to argue but Best Buy will not take back opened software. Only exchange it for the identical title. At least the one I frequent.

Why on earth would you be tasking your rig with anything while you are doing an update? Or better still, while rendering video? Actually, if you read the extended MS update descriptions, they will tell you that your computer may need a restart after the update. I usually follow the KB's regarding any updates. I would like to know a bit more than "Critical Security Update"

Maybe you could pre-order V11.. It should be here in a few months. V11 should be out prior to any updates for V10.

There are two files that must be downloaded. One is the program file, and the other which you seem to have is the content file. Go back and download the program file. Install it, reboot, then install the content file.

I also have a DJ & an iPod. I was also an Apple hater but my wife got an iPod last year. Because she is not a computerist, I had to manage her iPod (with iTunes). So... I have Roxio, the Dell DJ Explorer, iTunes, & Duebox installed on the one computer I use to manage this stuff. All very happily co-exist with one another. I got an iPod for myself last November. Now that I use iTunes alot more, I am really starting to like it more than the other software(s). Takes getting used to but once you use it and start to know your way around, I think you will start to like using it. I like you, buy the CD and rip it into mp3's. iTunes does a nice job keeping your collection organized. It even keeps the tracks in order when you play them even though they are sorted by track name. That was one thing I always struggled with using other software. Don't be scared
