CloneDVD will burn and it will transcode a dvd-9 (as purchased movie) to a single layer DVD-5 disk. I have found that it is always better to allow AnyDVD to decrypt and rip with CloneDVD also, it will rip DVD-9 if DL is your preference.

Once the movie is ripped to the hard drive with ALL PROTECTIONS removed.


If it is a standard definition movie load the VIDEO TS FOLDER into Imgburn and burn to the proper size blank disk.


If it is a high definition movie (blu-ray) load the BDMV FOLDER into Imgburn and burn to the proper size blank disk.




Ripping the source movie to the hard drive as an ISO IMAGE and then loading into Imgburn will also work, in standard definition or high definition.

That's a free download option, but if the original is on a dual layer disk the backup will have to be, no transcoding.

There is no requirement that if your source disk is standard definition or high definition and is on a dual layer disk such as a DVD-9 (8.5gb) or BD-R (50gb) that your back-up blank disk has to also be a dual layer.


Backing up with no compression is based on the size of your source disk in gb and the size of your back-up disk in gb plus working processing room.

In theory, you could take a source BD-9 (8.5gb) dual layer and put it on a BD-R (25gb) single layer with no compression and no problems.

If I foloow your logic I can take a twenty dollar movie that I could have transcoded and put on a thirty cent SL DVD and put it on a twenty dollar BD disk if I want to?

OK fine?

[diceflamez]

well, its just a dvd formats. Not HD.
So TS Video folder to IMGBurn.

What programs do you guys do to burn your SD dvds then?
Do you use free programs?

Thanks again.

I take a Verbatim +R DL and use CloneCD to make a 1:1 backup of SD DVDs. No problems ever!
