DVDShrink will work. I use it to back up all my dvds, very simple.

I have DVDShrink....I understand that some movies are copyrighted and some are not. So if I have DVDShrink I shouldnt run into any problems with MY DVD's?

As I said before it will work but NOT on all of them as it will not be able to open security encrypted DVDs, you will find out as soon as you start, if it wont do it use DVD FAB.

It is my understanding, unless the law has been changed, that you can legally make one archival back up copy. How you do it is a different matter.
Catch 22

seti every country the laws are diffrent, some you can some you can't

yes, every country has different laws, you can't copy CDs or DVDs leagally in the UK...

however, the poster who asked the original question is based in a university within America from his IP address.
and these forums are hosted in america. and there is a "fair usage" policy with regards ripping media that you've bought in America.

(you can transpose media, e.g rip CDs or movies to a computer if you have the original, this is illegal in the UK).

Programs that I've used are dvdx (freeware - google it)
dvddycrypter (freeware - google it)
and Slysofts AnyDVD (commercial - still google it).

I've never found a DVD that these can't rip.

with some DVDs you get copy protection errors, one way to get around these is to play the DVD whilst ripping it at the same time, playing the DVD removes the media locks that prevents copying it in *some* cases.

Ok so when I get the DVD ripped, what should I burn with? All I have is ConvertxtoDVD....

Most programs like DVD SHRINK/FAB work automatically with Nero so if you have that already installed you don't have to worry, I would think convertxtodvd is just the same.
