Answer 1

First if I may give you a little information.
Any film that has security or any type of encryption can not be copied without first taking some steps.
Many users are of the opinion that they can just copy a movie, change formats and copy any movie.
I must stress that there are so many factors that affect the coping of DVD's that the general public are simply not aware of.
Software that is on your computer.
Not all burning software that comes on store bought computers will copy DVD content.
2nd The Format that is chosen on the software also will determine if you can have a successful copy.
3rd the Media you use also has a direct bearing on weather you have a successful burn.
Many users are not aware of the huge difference in the media you purchase, in these areas.
Format, Speed, and Quality or Brand you purchase.
Any one or combintion can and will affect your ability to copy.
The DVD burners that are installed in many computers will also determine if you can in fact copy as well.
All of the information you seek as luck would have it is against the terms of use agreement to discuss on these forums.
That being said, your only option is to self educate yourself in this area using 2 different sites.
One is Wikopedia
Learn the terms that are used and know thee difference.
Google offers all the other information you seek as well.
Be specific, ask your search as a question in the field before hitting the return key.
What you are trying to do requires several steps and normally requires at least 3 seperate pieces of software.
Yes there are several that claim to do this in one step with one piece of software. But, I find that most users are not able to fiqure out how to use the software to accomplish there end result. That is the reason I use more than one, I have never had an issue, ONCE I LEARNED HOW TO DO IT AND WHAT TO USE.
