DVD Backup

[mickbarlow]

hi, i want to backup all my dvd collection on to my HTPC to eliminate the need of putting the DVD's in the drive.

What software (preferably free) can i use to do such a thing?

oh and i dont want to convert to divx or anything, i just want a true image for the DVD itself then probably use nero imagedrive to load em.

cheers

A great piece of software for this is DVDDecrypter... They've just had to shutdown though, so finding the software could be tricky now....

This is all I've used, It works and it was the first one I tried.
I'm sure there are better apps out there though..?

cheers

DVD Shrink is pretty useful if you want to cut out extra features, etc. It can also compress the video if you wanted to.
