Bear in mind that most DVD's are copy protected Ace and the fact that they are double layer (8.8gb) means you either copy the full dvd disc and put it on a double layer dvd (costly) or you use something like DVD Shrink to make it 4.4gb to fit on a normal dvd ... that's as well as using DVD Decryptor.

DON'T PANIC.

DVD shrink is simple and plenty of helpful websites !!

Download it here

and a basic introduction is here


Install it and load a DVD then read here

here

and here


When you come to windows about burn speed etc you will see the options on a drop down menu.

As I recall if you don't have a compatible version of Nero once you load a blank DVD and DVD Shrink tries to make the copy you will get a load of error messages.
If so cancel the program.
Restart then in preferences untick the Nero option then separately burn your copy DVD with your version of Nero, just as Jacques describes for the files created by DVD Decrypter.

No doubt you will make a couple of dud discs before you get the hang of it but with blanks 20p each not going to break the bank!!

You will soon be the local expert!!
