Hey GUy's, I let a friend borrow my favorite dvd. Somehow the dvd is freezing up. Ok my question is how do I back up my dvd's. I got a special edition Goonie's movie for my dad. I want to back it up just in case. I have convertxtodvd and imgburn. Will these work If not what freeware programs can I get to do the job. I have no idea how to do this .So all the help I can get will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, MAtt
Hi, try this link, it's a guide on how to use RipIt4Me, a great free program used to back up dvd's, you will need to install some other programs needed for it to work, there all free. The version in the guide has an installer but you might not to be able to get that one anymore. It looks a bit complicated at first but its very easy to use once set up. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/422740
How The Backup You're Store Bought DVDs freeware 1. dvdfab decrypter to rip dvd shrink to transcode(sometimes you will need to use FixVTS or VOB Blanker to clean the file before transcoding with dvd shrink) then nero, imgburn or dvd decrypter to burn. 2. ripit4me (not being used as much it got pulled by the man but still works) http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/360110 http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/422740 pay programs 1. clonedvd 2 +anydvd 21 day free trial updates for life very easy to use etc. 2. dvdfab platinum heres a software page and guides http://www.dvdplusvideo.com/Guides.html http://club.cdfreaks.com/f72/clonedvd-anydvd-guide-madbob-72022/ http://webpages.charter.net/bacitup/ http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/183136 http://www.slysoft.com/en/ remember to use good blank media like Taiyo Yuden or Verbatim burning no faster then 8x on a clean machine with the most up to date firmware for you're drive/burner http://forum.rpc1.org/dl_all.php
