Rod B You better get Software like DVD Shrink to copy DVD's
What these ahole companies don't tell anyone is that you can not copy a commercial DVD movie 95% of the time to another DVD as these jerks have made all manufacturers put a chip or something in the DVD recorders/players that prevents copying a DVD unless: 1. You have a computer internal or external DVD Burner & have a software program called DVD Shrink or a similar one which you can find on the Internet for free or 2. You buy, if you have a stand alone DVD recorder some devices people sell on Ebay that decrypts this stuff as well.
if you don't do either option, you will just be banging your head against the wall.

Two, if I copy a DVD to a DVD, which input should I use, Component or S-Video? Does it matter?
Thanks!
I also Have a stand alone DVD recorder for TV & Video tapes
Besides the computer DVD burner which I use for DVD movies, I have a standalone DVD recorder for TV & converting VHS & 8mm tapes to DVD. Mine is a Lite On model which you can get for $170 or less including shipping online from places like Circuit City. As I said, you can still use this standalone to copy DVD movies but you are going to need some device that's sold on Ebay between $120- $150 or so, to decrypt the DVD's besides a second DVD layer.

Where can I get this DVD burning software for my PC to copy DVDs?
Thanks again.
