Dvd Copying Software?

[Vagodeoz 0]

Wich program do you suggest for copying dvds?Another thing that I need: I don't know if it's legal or not, but my mom brought me some dvds when she was in spain, so they are Zone 2, and here we use zones 1 and 4, so our dvd player doesn't read them. Can I copy a dvd and make it region free?Thanks.

I don't know for certain, because I don't have it, but I would try Nero. The link I gave you takes you to the list of features provided in Nero 6 (I believe they are all provided). Check and see if this has everything you need.
I will keep searching for a freeware version for you, and let you know if I find anything.

Nero should be the best one among those CD/DVD burning software. However, these burning software only allow you to copy copyrighted discs.

Try DVD Region+CSS Free at http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/. I am using this one and It is quite good (you could say excellent).

So the solution is:
- Install Nero and DVD Region+CSS Free
- Run DVD Region+CSS Free (it supports Nero)
- Run Nero and copy whatever DVDs you'd like

Cheers

Oi, one more thing to try that is DVD Decrypter at http://www.dvddecrypter.com/

It is freeware that would be the best choice for you.

Any more question, post them up!!!

You can also try downloading some freeware at download.com or just run a google search for the software. U can also try Dr. DivX to copy the DVD and then choose to burn them onto a DVD. There is another software called cloneDVD where u can copy the VOB files as it is then burn them using your favourite burner. U will have to download another add-on for this software to copy encrypted discs.-OR-U should have bought a DVD player which plays discs of any region.

DVD shrink,and CloneDVD2.Vob files can be burned by Nero also

Yeah... the problem is when I got back from school my mother told me "I bought a DVD player". I always advicer her in that kind of stuff but she rushed buying it...

About DVD Region+CSS Free, I don't have it. I used to, but now I use AnyDVD, wich is pretty much the same.

I'll try that about burning it with Nero, I'll tell you the results.

Thanks a lot.

Oh, and one more thing: In a DVD, what is zone protected? The VOB files themselves? the format in wich the dvd is recorded?

I should take CloneDVD, but thats illegale because it was too good!
If you want to be legal you should take Nero. That's almost as good as CloneDVD.
(btw i am not sure if Nero is legal, but CloneDVD is sure illegal)

You can download CloneDVD here.

Hi, to copy dvds you can use DVDShrink it´s freeware. Most comercial dvd´s are doublelayer media and not easy to copy. You also need the Program ANYDVD, you can download a trial here. This Program will bypass the copy protection and cuts all the annoying trailers and advertising. I copy all my dvds with these progs and didn´t got any problems with quality.

with mac the ripper you can make anything region free.then shirnk it if it is over 4.4 Gigs with dvd2onex or something like it runs flawless

I tried DVD Shrink (wich also has a built in feature of making a DVD region free) but it stills won't play on the dvd player...I guess it's becouse it's on PAL format, and here we use NTSC.Would anyone happen to know a program to re encode a dvd from PAL to NTSC?

for converting any media format into any other media format, have a look at transcode from sourceforge.its open source :(If you dont know how to use the keyboard, there are plenty of frontends for it too.
