Can't capture DVD

Hi,

I have a DVD which I made previously.
I tried to capture it by Power Director 13.
It created a file "capture.mpg" that takes only 2 kb.
That file , of course, cannot be played.
At the first time that I tried to capture the DVD, I got an error message which said that a codec file is missing, and I should refer to the customers support team to solve that issue.

Please tell me how to fix this problem.

Thanks, and have a good week,
Ilan Marom

Welcome to the PD13 Forum.

It should not be necessary to "capture" a DVD. Simply insert your DVD and using Windows Explorer, navigate the DVD and find the .vob files. These can be imported directly into PD13 and edited. Copy the .vob files from the DVD to your PD13 working folder on your computer before importing.

Hope this helps. Have a great day.

Regards,
-Phil
