Has anyone had problems with the backup of Harry Potter 2 running DXC Xpress - when I reach 48 % it can`t read the title - any ideas???

No ideas, I was able to back up HP2 with Xpress with no problems. However, that movie does show a noticeable difference from the original when playing on a progressive scan player and HDTV. I recommend using DVDXCopy 1.5.2 on that title.

I must concur with Glass. I backed it up with DXCX 2.0, DXCX 2.5, and DXC 1.5.2. with no problems. On my non-progressive scan I can see the difference, and the difference is huge on the progressive scan.

I kept a DXCX copy soley for the younger children, but my older boys will only watch the DXC copy because of the lower picture quality. DXCX should really only be used on movies that are no longer than 2 hours, 15 minutes. Longer than that and picture quality becomes an issue.

When DXCX hangs and says it can't read the title that usuallly means one of two things. First your disc is scratched and/or dirty. Second, the copy protection is harder for DXCX to deal with than DXC because of the different encoding/compression process.

If you've got a clean, scratch-free dsic, then try ripping it with your burner instead of your DVD-ROM. Since your burner is slower it has better error handling capabilities.

If that doesn't work I am not sure what to do.

I also can backup HP2 with no problem using DXCX but wish I had done it using DXC, I can see a big difference also using progressive scan DVD player & 57"widescreen HDTV.
I was planning on using my backup and saving my original but think I'll make a new one using DXC. wish I had read this 1st :(

I also burned with no problems.Have you tried reinstalling windows after you installed your dvd burner.it helped mine run a lil bit smoother.
