    Alcohol 120% is able to create disc images and burn them. But it is not intended for the purpose of backing up commercial DVD. It says "bad sectors" or "unreadable sectors" because thats a form of protection on the disc. For that you should use software to bypass the protection. Such as (in order of quality) anyDVD(slysoft.com), DVDFab Decrypter (http://dvdidle.com/free.htm), or DVD43FREE (dvd43.com). You could use these with Alcohol 120% to rip a unprotected DVD Image.

    You cannot select data types when making an image of any dvd weather data or dvd video.
