    Hi I have backed up Region 1 discs using DVD shrink and nero 6. With DVD shrink you can make the disc multi region, the only thing I have had to do is force our standalone DVD players to use PAL output only not set to automatic (on our players by pressing a button on the remote).

    nasher, your DVD is copy-protected (encrypted). you need to download a software called "DVD Decrypter" and decrypt the DVD before using DVD Shrink.
