I didn't know about it. I can't copy with my SA but I remember someone using SA to copy DVDs, saying it was faster...

faster and worst way of copy... there is a big loss and people who copy with SA is making a very bad mistake.

great to know, for my luck I never had this chance to copy them with the SA, because I just have the HDD, the DVD burner and the VHS player on it eheh. So, no double DVD player/recorder

another question, one about synching:

The replacement audio (the better one) is louder on the right side than on the left side. I'm working in Sony Vegas. I thought I'd add another audio track, which will ber the same track as the normal one, just with the channels swapped. And when I render the audio, the final track will be balanced.

Is that OK or will the sound be screwed up? Or is there a better solution?

Cheers.

you can use soundforge and make a good stereo audio... and/or you can ad another track with channel changed and will be fine.
