    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.

Duplicate a home DVD

Hey guys, i have a homemade DVD disc that I would like to make a copy of. Im using a B&W G3 running 9.2.2. I created a disc image of the DVD using Toast 5.0. When I mount the image and try to burn using my internal LaCie DVD burner, Toast gives me error and doesn't proceed to burn. Im intalling Mac OS X 10.2 onto that machine today. Could it be that i need to decoded the DVD, then re-encode it and burn it? Im a newbie at this so any help would be appreciated. Lates.

in toast, all you need to do is choose copy. no need to make a disk image and mount it. this will slow your machine down a lot since it will copy your disk into a RAM disk, unless you have 2 drives. theres other ways, but this is the easiest
