DVD's

[Pistuphead]

Hi

First off - MODS this is legit i'm not making pirate copys of films to sell or doing anything illegal!

My mum has recently got a DVD player for the car to keep my sister happy on longer journeys, however, you will know how damaged CD's can get in the car so rather than let her take original DVD's into the car I was going to copy them and the copied ones can be for the car (I have done this with my CD's for a while now), however the DVD's I have tryed copying are protected, so I was wondering, is there some form of decoding program available in order to 'crack' the code?


Thanks in advance
Joey

very useful for creating backup copies

I use a program called DVDShrink, and it works very well. I essentially use it for the same reasons as you - I never intend to lend out, let alone sell the copies of the DVD's I bought. I just store my DVD files on my hard drive on the Home Theatre PC, so we dont have to have dozens of DVD film boxes cluttering the living room - and the same goes for music CDs, every one is stored on hard drive. (Strange that buying a music CD from Amazon and ripping it to your HD is a lot cheaper than buying the album online, along with the crap DRM restrictions that go with it!)

DVDShrink will remove protection and regions, and works very well - never had a duff DVD that I have burnt.
