Better Software than DVD Shrink?

[Kenji4861]

I wanted to backup a DVD I have (yes legally).

I haven't done this in a while and now I have Windows Vista.

A long time ago, I remember I installed Nero/DVD Shrink. I found DVD Shrink is no longer being updated.

What tool is everyone using nowadays?


Wrong forum, and you've got your answer.

I still use DVD Shrink. It gets me an nice ISO and I can burn all I want.

For backup purposes of course.

DVDFAB is what I use.

why are you bothering to shrink? HDD is cheaper than time needed to compress.

Shouldn't this be in the software forum.

Shouldn't you have a question mark at the end of your sentence?

if your dvd uses css keys you can't back it up legally because it involves breaking the css encryption and the dmca makes doing that illegal. not that i care, but you seem to.

Handbrake works well.

But you also need to break the css encryption if you want to play your DVD on, say, a linux computer with non-commercial software. And that's clearly fair use. So... there's that.

Actually, is it really breaking the encryption once DeCSS became public knowledge? I'd argue not. It's not like he has encryption-breaking software running, he just happens to have a copy of the key.

DVDFab works well, but I prefer Shrink's interface.
