Ok, before any flames, this is not against the law because I don't plan to share the files. Basically i have a couple of dvd's that i want to rip from dvd disc to .avi before the disks fail. Some already have some pretty mean scratches in, and seeing as I paid good money for them i want to be able to watch them. Please don't lock this topic - it's not breaking any laws to back up information which you have paid for.

Note that circumventing copyprotections may not be legal in your country. I can't be bothered researching in how many countries this is illegal in though, so I'll just leave it at that. In any case, it can hardly be considered immoral.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Also note that this is the simplest way to make a decent DVD-rip. You will not get the same quality as some movies you may have acquired now and then, but then again, it won't take you several weeks to learn. I would suggest copying the movie to another DVD instead. You will lose some quality this way aswell, but no way near as much.

Looks like thats exactely what i want :) thanks for helping mate!

Good quality? As opposed to what? Seriously, when it comes to DVD-R copies, it doesn't get much worse than DVD-Shrink. It's another one of those programs that is designed to be easy to use and learn. It gets the job done, but if you intend to copy DVD's there are far better ways.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

However, the main reason I didn't suggest it was because it created DVD-copies, he wanted .avi's ;)

It doesn't work like that. Making up stories about programs designed to provide an easy way of creating backups is fairly pointless, don't you think? Due to the way DVD-Shrink is designed it will have considerably less video quality of its copies compared to more complex methods. No supposed plugins or "special versions" will change that.

Try anydvd and clone dvd from http://www.slysoft.com. but u need any dvd to get past copy protection.
