Just use Dvdxcopy it is the easiest software to use.Quite often it will need 2 blank dvdr's.That's when you would need other software to get it to fit on one dvdr.

So... Dvdxcopy for Dvd5 (will fit on 1 dvdr).It will rip and create the dvd.When it's finished it needs Nero(or equivalent) to burn.


For Dvd9(needs 2dvdr)use DvdDecrcyptor to rip all files to hard drive.Use Instant Copy 7 to convert (best)or Dvd2one.Then burn with Nero,or other burning software.See the tutorials for these in the dvd tutorial section.

Most of the dvd movies are protected that's why you need these programs.It's not a straight copy from Dvdrom to Dvd writer.


If you want a backup from a backup you can do this easily once the copy protection is removed.Dvdxcopy leaves the backups protected.The others do not.The protection is removed with Dvddecryptor.

Note.. Legally,you are allowed only one backup of movies you own!

To back up Dvd9(dual layer).Use Elpresidente's tutorial,it creates the best backups,Instant Copy 7 is a close second,Dvd2one,third(but fastest).

or simply use DVD2DVD-R..easier than ELs tutorial and nearly the same quality

You indicate your trying to copy a DVDR. You do NOT need to re-encode it, just a simple copy-to-copy is all thats needed. Nero, RNM, Discjuggler, etc will all do a DVD to DVD copy, even on the fly if your equipment is up to it.

Or back it up in DVD Decrypter.

For me the simple answer apart from DXC, is use smartripper to rip the movie off the DVD. ifoedit to strip out menus sort ifo's etc, then DVD2ONE to make sure the movie fits on one DVD-+R/RW whatever the length.
