im just trying to get my head around this. got it all going and then clicked on dragons lair which started a torrent of 3 or so gig. anyone know if this is just for dragons lair or all laserdisc games.
i have a dragons lair dvd( not the 20th edition one) but have no idea if its gonna work after the day or so the torrent will take. the prompt said i need a dvd but im unsure if the one i have has the 'key'.
dont know wether to persist with the torrent or what.
how else would i use this dvd , would i copy to a hard drive, im confused.
 any help mucho appreciated.
cheers

ok i think i may have found out the answers but any personal experiences welcome, particularly on the games not on the 20th dvd , are they just not in copyright and downloadable for all?

it seems any official dvd is acceptable for use for the four supported games, look at this link for information on that

WCBoudreaux:
Hey bud, just letting you know, that the 3GB file isn't just one game... It's all 4 games that require the dvd for verification...

Dragon's Lair
Dragon's Lair 2
Space Ace
Thayer's Quest

You only have to download them once, and once you verify them with your original dvds, you'll never have to do it again...

The 20th Anniversary DVD-Rom, and the DVD-Video discs both work to "decrypt" the files... Which are the actual laserdisc rip, and are far superior to the DVDs in look, and play... If you need any help getting it set up, contact me via email... Daphne is just intimidating... But is actually very simple to set up...

Another way, would be DVD2Daph, but trust me when I say, you'll want the files that Daphne is downloading... They're SOOOOO worth the wait...

Good Luck To You!

cheers for this will
glad the 3 gig is four games, but i dont have space ace yet, just the other three, will i be able to verify them individually?

WCBoudreaux:
No problem bud... Glad I could help...

Yes, you verify them individually... It just dowloads them all at once, so it's a one time thing, instead of downloading them once for every game...

When you select a game from the left window, it'll ask you for the corosponding DVD... It will verify the disc, then decrypt the files (per game you selected)... Once that particular game is done, it won't ask for another DVD unless it's one that you haven't Verified before...

Hope that makes sense!
