Page 1 of Duplicating DVD`s advice please

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to burn some DVD`s that I`d like back-ups of. When I try to burn them I get a message that they are write protected, is there a way around this.
I thank you.

DVD Shrink with Nero 6 will allow you to make your "backups".

I only know the answer to two questions (see the THX one below), so I have to be darned fast! :D

you`ll need

any dvd

this will get around regions and copy protection. 15 day trial then £21 .. (no cracks available for this one!) But for the £21 it`s worth it. Get`s around Copy protected cd`s, regions and RCE and makes sure your drive doesn`t get permanently locked to a region! brilliant.

dvd shrink

this will rip and burn the dvd...and it`s FREE!!!

nero works with dvd shrink and will automatically burn the disc as part of the dvd shrink process

Nero isn`t free..but free copies are abundant as are keys and cracks.. and it`s great!

that`s all you need!

BUT

if you want to cram the whole DVD (including menus etc) onto a disc with lower quality

clone dvd

will sort you out. 30 day trial and then £30ish quid. But I doubt you`ll need it.

Most of the people I know use dvd shrink and the nero and any dvd combo. and the results are astounding.

You obviously haven`t been looking in the right places :)

BTW...DVD Decrypter does a good job of ripping if needed....and it`s free.

DVDShrink cracks encryption and RCE as it runs. (Or so I`m led to believe) :D

yes and yes. But I occasionally like to watch DVD`s on my pc, and use the DVD rom materials. So to avoid locking my drive...Any DVD does the job.
