DVD software

I got this new system and have 2 dvd drives. Ones a normal DVD/CD ROM and the other is a Sony DVD/CD burner that can burn a buttload of different formats, which I'm not too familiar with.

What's some good DVD burning software for making *cough* duplicates? Preferably free cuz I'm cheap like that. Any other advice would be appreciated.

dvddecrypter and dvd shrink are the 2 I use..

both are free

www.dvddecrypter.com
www.dvdshrink.org

dvd decrypter is great if you want to rip dvd's to your hard drive...

dvd shrink will recompress and strip out menus (if you want to get a dual layer dvd to fit on a single layer disc)

They both work great even with the new encryption.

If you are using two drives i can recommend going direct from dvd to dvd using shrink - it works much quicker than using decryptor & shrink together - the programs seem to overlap and render the files twice.

My setup at home with 2 dvd drives will do a 'backup' direct from disc to disc in under 20 minutes.

If you want to keep a copy of the files you can nominate a different temp folder each time so you have them for later use.

If you go to www.doom9.org there are how-to pages for using shrink and other programs for 'backups'.
