How to backup The Legacy Blu-ray to HDD?

I received “The Legacy’ in Blu-ray as Christmas gift from my boy, love it! But my poor Blu-ray player is killing it and I’m afraid it would destroy the disk. Therefore I need BDMagic to make a digital copy to HDD so I can watch it later without Blu-ray player and it will not destroy my precious disk.

It seems you answered your own question. If you are trying to back up a Blu-Ray, you need a Blu-Ray ripper such as BDMagic. So I'm not sure what you're asking. Perhaps you want to know if you can back it up straight from the Blu-Ray player. The answer to that is definitely no. You need a PC and a Blu-Ray-capable drive in your PC to use a Blu-Ray ripper.
As for your Blu-Ray player damaging the disc, that's unlikely since Blu-Rays and DVDs are read using lasers and the disc isn't touched.
What makes you think the Blu-Ray player is doing any damage to the disc? If you hear a lot of grinding and things like that, there's no impact on the disc. That's all inside the player. It's really more the case that the disc is doing damage to the player than the other way around.
What Toshiba model is your Blu-Ray player?
Quite honestly, you should be posing such questions to www.videohelp.com when it comes to issues like Blu-Ray rippers.

  • How to connect my sony blue ray play to wifi via my airport utility?

    how to connect my sony blue ray play to wifi via my airport utility?

    The airport utility has nothing whatever to do with the sony bluray player.
    The airport utility is to setup wireless in the airport.. once you setup wireless then you use the sony setup for wireless in the player as per its manual.
    Please do keep the wireless names short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
    As well as pure alphanumeric passwords if you want to do this successfully.

  • How to Export HDV for Blu-Ray?

    When editing in DV mode, I would export an avi and a wav file, use Tmpgenc to convert the avi to an m2v file, then import the m2v and wav files into Tmpgenc DVD Author 16 to build a menu and burn a DVD. How do I burn a Blu-Ray disc after editing HDV? What are the steps? (I have a Blu-Ray burner and Blu-Ray discs.) I downloaded Tmpgenc Authoring Works 4 Trial, but it wouldn't recognize an m2v file that I made using Adobe Encoder. I can't use Encore because something screwed up upon installation and now it refuses to install it again. All I get are error messages.

    Yes, fixing an installation is a pain but it will help you in the long run.  You're asking for an aspirin to take away the pain of a broken leg.  Fix the leg.
    My thought would be that even if you try to work a blu-ray with some other program, your system problems will cause it to have the same problem.
    Try a simple uninstall of Adobe products, get and run the CS4 clean script, run whatever disk checking program you have on the system, do whatever maintainence is appropriate and then reinstall the Adobe apps, run the updaters and hopefully you'll be good to go.
    It's a pain, but it will likely be worth it.

  • How to get lg BE14NU40 blue ray burner to work with fcp or compressor

    how to get LG BE14NU40 Blue Ray Burner to work with FCP X or Compressor??

    Hello Ron,
    First up, you don't have to use Compressor to burn a Bluray Disc.
    FCP X can do this with it's own built-in software. Compressor of course can do the job.
    In my experience some burners work and some don't.
    I use an the older version of this burner:

  • How can backup the old deta from time machine to OS X LION??

    Hi there,
    I was using MacPro with older snow leopard just now i install OS X LION,before install i backup all deta to time machines about 70GB,now when i connect i dont know how can backup the old deta to OS X LION,but it just backup the recent deta to time machine,pls guide me how i can backup my old deta to my computer??
    Will be much appreciated !!
    Thanks.

    Sorry, but your post is not clear.
    If all you did was upgrade to Lion, there's no reason to do anything.  All your data, etc., should still be on your Mac, just as it was before.
    Please clarify exactly what you did, and what the problem is.

  • Mixed frame rate video clips on the same Blu-ray disc

    Before I go into the detail, this actually isn’t an issue for me, but more of a finding the answer to a different question, so please bear with me.
    To explain:  I live in the UK, and I’m forever challenged by the different native video frame rates imposed by the PAL and NTSC standards.  Every consumer camcorder I’ve ever seen only produces HD output (1920 x 1080) at either 50 fields/second interlaced, or 25 (sometimes 50) frames/second progressive.  Some action cameras (Go Pro) I possess allow me to record at 30fps progressive, in full HD, which for fast movement is simply better.  This in itself is not really a problem, but I use other software (all USA sourced) for video production whose best results are only visible when the finished HD output is 1080/60i.
    Having mixed frame rate video is a real problem for the DVD standard, but no so much for Blu-ray. Indeed Adobe Encore neatly gets around this problem, so I can actually author a Blu-ray disc which contains full HD video clips that may be either 50i or 60i.  Both types of video exist on the same disc, and when played back through a Blu-ray player/TV combination, the resultant video clips are shown correctly. Player and TV switch seamlessly to the correct setting to handle the video content.  So, I have a solution to my problem, but at the same time, a question I can’t find an answer to, which is this:
    Does the Blu-ray specification allow video clips of different native frame rates (i.e. 25fps and 30fps) assuming the resolution is the same, to co-exist on the same Blu-ray disc as a supported feature?
    It works, but I can’t find one shred of information that says what I’m doing is supported.
    Comments are most welcome.
    Regards,
    Steve

    Encore requires you to specify the project type as PAL or NTSC (whether you start it as Bluray or DVD), and does not allow you to change it later. Also, if you try to create a transcode type for PAL in an NTSC project you cannot get to the 25 fps setting (and therefore, I think, cannot do it).
    But if you import a Bluray legal 25i file to an NTSC project, it is happily added.
    DVD player conventional wisdom is that PAL players handle NTSC disks, but NTSC players do not generally handle PAL disks. I never quite understood why the TVs were not more of the issue. Do Bluray players even differentiate between PAL and NTSC?
    Even if the player will handle PAL, the TV may well not do so - so there is more going on.
    NTSC uses (generally) 60Hz systems whereas PAL is 50Hz hence the problem.
    Do not try to mix standards as it will not be allowed - however, multiple frame rates are allowed as long as they are within spec for that TV standard.
    They are best avoided though - otherwise you run a very real chance of serious asset truncation as the TV display switches between different resolutions & frame rates.

    >Step 1. Backup existing data using time machine.
    Time Machine is nice, but you have very little in terms of ability to verify that your data is all backed up.      I find Time Machine is better for the occasional recovery of previously written data at specific times.  A good backup solution that survives an erase and install (there is no clean install in Mac OS X), is a clone, and preferably TWO clones.    See my FAQ*:
    http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
    Time Machine can work as good as a clone, and in fact I once had to rely on it because my hard drive died.  Thankfully it did recover everything.   But I had my clone just in case it didn't work.     Now I feel more comfortable since clones allow you to boot themselves, and thus prove all the important system information got saved, and not just the user data.
    Clones are also easier to import with the migration assistant.

  • What is the best blue-ray drive for my Mac Pro????

    What is the best blue-ray drive for my Mac Pro????
    I wanted a BWU-200S but it says windows only i called apple
    and all they could tell me was logitech....wouldn't tell me a model
    or anything.
    I would really like one that does all the formats and feature that the
    Sony BWU-200S does.
    I read that the BWU-200S might work in the mac pro it just only comes with
    windows software. If anyone has tried this let me know please i need this soon.

    This site makes Mac compatible Blueray drives:
    http://store.fastmac.com/index.php?cPath=10252
    The questions to ask them is:
    1. Which applications can be used to burn bluray movies from it?
    2. Which applications can be used to playback commercial bluray from it?
    3. Does it let you burn DVDs from iDVD, iTunes and the Finder as well as CDs and CD-RWs?
    4. Does it support both DVD-R DL and DVD+R DL for burning and playback?
    5. Does it allow for booting from the system installer that shipped with the machine and running the hardware test that shipped with the machine?
    6. Do you get to keep the original optical drive in case you want to troubleshoot if system issues are due to their drive?
    Some of these may already be on the website, I just haven't taken the time to look it completely over.

  • How can I watch my Blu-ray discs on the iPad?

    Hello guys,
    I got some Blu-ray movies and I want to watch them on my iPad, could you tell me some good tools which can help me ?

    It is going to be very difficult, if at all possible.
    First, is getting the content accessible to the iPad. Have yet to see a BD player that can be connected to it.
    Then, getting it to read, decode and display the content. The App Store shows absolutely no app that could do it. VLC can on a PC or Mac, but it requires additional software not on the iPad platform.
    Lastly, where are you going to store the content? Each title is tens of GB's in size.

  • How do I play a Blu Ray DVD on my MacBook Pro??

    I am trying to play my Twilight (shh, I know, I know, it's a guilty pleasure ) BluRay DVD's on my MacBook Pro - but, it's not playing, nothing is coming up. Anyone know how to play BluRay on a MacBook?? Is it even possible?

    You need an external Blu-ray player (the built-in SuperDrive does not support Blu-ray) and a Blu-ray player (such as http://www.macblurayplayer.com/promotion.htm or http://www.bluray-player-software.com/ or any, really). Then you can play Blu-ray discs on your Mac.
