DVD copying forum?

Sorry but they won't. You still need DVDshrink/DVDdecrypter to remove the copyright flag, user restrictions, macrovision and region setting (miss anything?). For example, if you stick a rental DVD into your reader and try to make an image/direct copy using NERO, it will most likely say 'This DVD is copy-protected and cannot be read'.
Oh well :(

So you say it can't be done? Are you saying just with NERO, or what? Dynagod's results seem to say you are incorrect.

the program works flawlessly.
You can extract the feature only and remove all the extra language and audio tracks and make just about any movie fit on a single normal dvd-r.
i just copied the directors cut of chronicles of riddick and watched it. came out perfect. no artifacting or problems.

So even with a demo copy of this, you were able to do this, yes? I also know that the article I referred to speak of a plug-in, but I don't have it handy right now to know what the plug-in was for.
DYNAGOD, it would help tremendously for you to clarify if what boss says was your experience, or if indeed this program will help you make a 1:1 copy
Harry Potter:
Yes. It can't be done just with Nero. You need other programs (ie DVD shrink) to remove the protection on ORIGINAL DVDs. This does not apply to discs which have already gone through the shrink/decrypt process.
Thank god for pirates. Arrrrr matey.

You've misunderstood, but still answered re:Nero, so I guess at least Nero is semi-useless for burning a 1:1 copy.
Dynagod, please share if your experience contradicts Bosss7's or not.
I have a sneaking suspicion it doesn't, as I read the program doesn't touch copy-protected DVD's unless you use the plug-in, however I don't know if you found that plug-in or not.
Bosss7, have you used 123 Copy DVD, or any other DVD copy program, or is your experience limited to using Nero and DVD Shrink?
DYNAGOD:
once you try to copy a copyrighted disk, the program directs you to a website..
you go there and download like a 5k patch file,thats the decrypter/transcoder plugin,just run it and your ready to go..
i was able to make a 1 to 1 copy (minus the menus and extraneous audio commnetary tracks). with none of the problems or the need of any of the software boss7 stated.
i watched the movie last nite and it was perfect as i stated.
