I am somewhat new to burning DVD's, now I have done your regular Cd-roms from disk to disk. Now I just downloaded DVD Decrypter and it is coping the DVD to my hard drive. Now I have Roxio CD-DVD software. Can I do just the click and drag or will I need a different form of software?
Here is one guide for you: http://www.afterdawn.com/guides/archive/dvd9_to_dvdr_with_dvd_shrink.cfm You do not want to use Roxio
One more thing. I was doing the drag and drop, with no problems. But there wasn't enough space for all the files. Now is there a way to compress the copied files if so then what will I need? I already have DVD Decrypter, so what else would I need to cut down the size? or can I just compress them like regular files?
I have to reccomend using Dvd Shrink 3.1. I just let it encode/compress to an iso, and then burn it as an image with Nero 6. It's quick and reliable...takes between 30min-1hr. I tried all kinds of different programs, but this has worked for everything I've tried.
