I have modified the signature. It was way out of date. I had forgotten it existed. More better? Thanks for the burner offer @AAProds, but no, Bilbo is a Dell OptiPlex 3070 with just the one place for a disc drive. That is a HL‑DT‑ST DVD+‑RW GU90N

I have just spent six hours with MS CoPilot uninstalling VPX16, cleaning any trace of VPX16 from my PC including Folders, files, Registry Keys and other things above my pay grade, reinstalling VPX16 without ads popups and other annoying traits I

Caveat Emptor is the go according to CoPilot.CoPilot is scornful of just about every DVD-DL on the Australian market. I finally found one of which CoPilot approved and their manufacturer doesn't know about them. It is all very mysterious - coriouser

@rickduley Rick, Movie Edit pro/Movie Studio/Video Deluxe have always been flaky with MKV imports, in fact, in my case, more often than not they don't work. Magix can't deal with the MKV format, even though the video itself is probably just plain
