Attack of the Clones
Greetings, lass
Happy birthday & welcome 2 the forum. I'm not too well versed in DVD copying either, but U could give CloneDVD a try - get it here. Not that I've ever witnessed its performance, but the name by itself sounds so nice, doesn't it?  PS. since you're not familiar with DVD copying, let me remind you that a DVD recorder is not enough, you'll need a blank DVD as well - but I think you've already figured that out..  Quote:

Read the sticky topic in the DVD Backup forum - although I'm not sure of the capacity of dvd-ram disks.

My suggesting CloneDVD may have been somewhat hasty. Indeed, I inquired about CloneDVD, and it turned out that it CANNOT make 1:1 copies of CSS-encrypted DVDs, thus it does NOT deserve its name, sacrebleu! WHATA SHAME!!!  In fact, there is no software to this day that can backup CSS-protected DVDs in 1:1 fashion. My guess is, CSS encrypts the DVD's TOC (Table Of Contents), much like some CD copy-protection schemes. The snag is, unlike in the case of CD-readers, there is no DVD-reader as of yet that can read a DVD in RAW mode. In other words, there is no such thing as RAW-reading for DVDs. Which explains why it is impossible (for now) to make exact replicas of certain DVD titles. HOWEVER: this is no cause 4 despair. If the protection cannot be defeated, it can still be bypassed! There are tools that can remove the CSS protection so U can still backup your DVD. The backup will not be 1:1 since the protection won't be on the copy, but hell, who cares as long as the copy works... Such software works in conjunction with DVD-copying progs (such as CloneDVD): it operates in the background, like a virtual drive interface, decrypting the DVD "on-the-fly" and transmitting the modified data to the DVD-copying program. One of these tools is 'AnyDVD', U can get it here. PS. READ THE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST! There are a few unsupported DVD-readers. PPS. Mind what Ghost said - make sure about the recordable DVD formats your writer can support: DVD-R(W), DVD+R(W),DVD-RAM, etc... I think DVD-RAM capacity is roughly 10Gb. I know very little about this format. On the other hand, DVD-R is the most widely used, however DVD+R is said 2 be FAR more reliable. PPPS. Don't forget the blank DVD...

 As 4 Mac, I suggest DVDbackup, it works on Mac platforms and also decrypts and backs up CSS-protected DVDs, it can be found here. NB. I don't know of any DVD backup software for AS400 and mainframe systems. Not that U asked yet, I'm just anticipating further questions...
