Hi I am new on the mac scene and was wondering how i would go about copying(ripping) a dvd to my computer(G5 w/ panther) and then reburning it. I would like to back up some movies and such. Any suggestions would be appricaiated Cheers
You should really read some of the threads that others have started before posting, your question is awnsered hundreds of times and in many different ways in other posts and threads. But I'm feeling generous: Use mactheripper (or OSex, or Hades) to decrpyt DVDs (free), DVDremaster or DVD2oneX to copress them (unfortunately, not free) and toast 6 to burn the DVDs. Search the forum for more specific guides.
With Fast DVD Copy v2.5 for Mac, you put in your DVD, take the check marks out of the boxes on things you don't want to copy. Like Spanish subtitles or French audio. Push the BIG green highlited START button and wait for about 30 to 40 minutes. It ask for a blank. Extract the source DVD and give it a blank DVD. Wait 15 to 30 minutes. It spits out the finished DVD and ask if you would like to make another copy. Fast DVD Copy makes perfect backups. It works in the background while you work on other projects. I suppose memory is a factor there. I have 1 gig on an iBook G4 1.2GHz. I am amazed at the trouble people out there are going to, to back up DVD's. www.fastdvdcopy.com
