How to Easily Burn Copies of DVD Movies Using

Programs you will need for this procedure:

To decrypt: DVD Decrypter - dvddecrypter.com
To process: DVD2one - DVD2one
To burn to DVD: CopyToDVD vso-software.com 

or 

Nero Express nero.com 

Step 1 - Coping the movie to your hard disk
Most DVD's are encrypted and need to be decrypted before you can process them with a DVD copy program. Since decrypting DVD's can be against the law in your country, this part is not included in DVD copy software. It is a very easy to use decryption software and can do the job in about 20 minutes. Make sure that you are using the right DVD media for your burner. DVD+R is not the same as DVD-R! 

Setup for DVD Decrypter – 

Set Mode to “file mode”. 

Make sure all options are disabled, so for instance do not enable Multi Angle Processing! 

Do not merge the vob files to one big file, keep them seperate. 

Step 2 - Process the movie
On the first screen, select the source and destination directories.

Create a destination directory called VIDEO_TS to copy the decrypted files to. I use C:\DVD TEMP\Decrypted DVD\VIDEO_TS. The folder VIDEO_TS must be in CAPS. 

Place the DVD in your DVD /RW drive and the program will automatically select only the movie files. You will not have to select any other files. (It works best in the “file mode”). Make sure the Source is set to your DVD drive and the Destination is set to C:\DVD TEMP\Decrypted DVD\VIDEO_TS. Then start the copy/decryption process.

This is what your screen will look like when the movie is ready to copy:

When the program is finished decrypting close the program.

Step 3 - Process the decrypted files using DVD2one
Next the decrypted files will need to be processed using DVD2one. The files will be processed so they will fit on one DVD! No need to spread the movie over two DVDs! To do this; create another directory called C:\DVD Temp\Destination DVD\VIDEO_TS (make sure that “VIDEO_TS” is in CAPS).

Start DVD2one and select the Source and Destination Directory as shown below.
