blu ray to dvd

[whiskeryron]

I have an LG BD 650 Blu Ray player & on the back there is a 3 phono jack configuration, using a 3 phono to usb cable I have tried connecting Blu Ray to PC in order to save a Blu Ray movie to my PC. Can anyone explain to me what I need to do to get this to work ? My original intention was to get movie to PC & then to burn to DVD but I haven't figured out how to do this. ( I am now quite ancient but the grey cells are still active).

you cant burn a bluray disc to dvd unless you have a bluray disc burner on your computer

AFAIK you're unlikely to get this to work (at least without using some extremly dodgy software), as there is copy protection to prevent this sort of thing. Others may know differently but, if nobody replies, that's why ...

deggers316, my thinking was that I could use the Blu Ray player as an external drive via USB to the PC why will this not work ?

no sorry fella that will not work you cant get that output on the lg to link up like that
and as ellipis says theres copy protection dvds that need software to take it off ,
do what i do wait a while till you can get the bluray when its been out a bit
then look on amazon etc and buy it, saves a lot of mucking about

The phonos on the back are L/R audio and composite video.
The only way you could get the output to your PC via USB would be to buy a USB capture device, then use some software (such as Windows Moviemaker) to record the output while playing the Blu-ray. This would give you a fairly crap quality movie and cost (excluding your time) about half as much as buying another Blu-ray player.

Much as I admire your tenacity, you are still on a loser.

Thanks a lot guys, looks like I'll have to shelve the idea.

If you use a Blu-ray copy program, you don't need to waste time to rip blu-ray and burn dvd, you can directly copy the blu-ray movie to dvd.
