How do you copy DVDs?

For back up purposes only. I just want to know how to do it. I know it is not against the law to backup your own dvds, but how do you do it? I have Clone DVD on my pc now, but it says that it cant or wont because the dvds are copy protected. Any help or links would be appreciated.

K too!

Band.
 
CloneDVD has a companion product named AnyDVD, it removes copy protection and region protection on the fly to allow you to make your backups. There's a free 1-week version if you want to test it out. It's a good product. I got Matrix and XMen as gifts, but I don't own a DVD player so I used AnyDVD to play them on my PC and piped the video to TV.

Or buy Alcohol 120% http://www.alcohol-soft.com/, comes recommmended but i haven't tried it yet.
A free product is dvd43 http://www.dvd43.com/ , got it but i haven't used it yet.

BTW if you don't have a dual-layer DVD burner, and it's a movie you own that you're backing up.... it's beyond the space here to discuss splitting it into 2 DVD's :)
 
You need DVDShrink to rip the image onto your harddrive and then you use either Nero or DVDDecrypter (free) to burn the image to your blank DVD media.

Once you get your burning software (Nero or DVDdecrypter) you just open DVDShrink, get it start and it will call the burning software up itself and burn it for you without you having to open anything else.
 
use copy-paste

yup..this is the way i do it..nice and simple. DVD Shrink then DVDdecrypter.
 
another vote for dvd shrink, its the most braindead way to do it, followed by nero oto burn onto the blank dvd

when you run into problems with dvdshrink, usually using dvd decrypter to extract your files, then run dvd shrink, followed by nero to burn onto the blank
 
Just confirming what others have already said. Get DVDShrink 3.2 I believe is the current version. It will rip the DVD down and you have the option to save as a disc image file, an .ISO file, which is what I do. Then you have this .ISO file on your hard drive from which you can burn as many copies of that DVD as you like.

I use cloneDVD together with AnyDvd

Apparently, the new CloneDVD can do protected disks too, neet to try it though
 
Get a dual-layer burner so you can copy the whole DVD without any compression. Excellent Dual-Layer burners are around $50 and dual-layer blanks are now less than $3 each and dropping (albeit single layer blanks are less than 50 cents each.) Go to newegg.com
 
no bros the best one out there (and I have tried them all) is "Dvd xcopy express".

YOU HAVE TO GET THE OLD VERSION.

You pop the dvd in push start and that's it, it copies the whole dvd perfectly.
