   maybe try it with a PC? linux OS (versus windows) is pretty forgiving when it comes to copyright BS. try asking your favorite 15 year old computer savvy kid to do it for ya.

   This is really trickey. you can copy a copy protected DVD. but first of all it is illegal. and second, you need a special device to copy them. a low level copying system. But you still can copy it to a VHS. Or you can use another OS. (Ubuntu Linux- a free OS)

   It is NOT illegal to make backup copies of DVD movies you legally own for backup purposes in case the originals get damaged. What’s difficult about this process is that the DVD movies are copy protected by Macrovision and other forms of technology to make the copies unplayable. There used to be a product on the market called DVD Xcopy, but the company who developed it, 321 studios, went out of business. You may be able to find a free ripper to copy your DVD movies, but you will need to understand how DVD movies are encoded to properly copy them.

   It is illegal to circumvent copy protection, and most if not ALL dvd’s do, so that makes the general process of ‘backing up’ DVD’s illegal. That is why a multitude of comapnies went out of business and a very lucrative company by the name of Kaleidascape is in a HUGE legal battle over their DVD servers that allow movies to be ‘backed up’

   First off you need two essential bits of hardware: A video card installed in the PC which can capture the video signals from the VHS player. A TV tuner card is no good, you need a capture card. It will save the files to one of several different formats, choose AVI if available; secondly a DVD burner.
   Once you have captured the video you can not just burn it to DVD. You need to reauthor it, i.e. convert it to DVD format. If you are using Nero7 you select Make a DVD Movie, import the file and Nero handles it from there including the burning of the disk. It’s not a simple process so rather than burning to DVD, burn to hard disk first.

   Most DVD’s are copy-protected. VHS tapes are not so protection is not a problem for this process.

   I strongly suggest visiting and where you can find everything you need to know about burning DVDs.

   Incidentally, you’ll need lots of hard drive space as the captured files will be large and your PC will need some grunt to handle the tasks.

   As an alternative you can use a digital video cam with passthrough and do it that way. The files will be saved in MPEG format which you can then use Nero to burn to DVD

   one of the reasons I will not buy a DVD player recorder that is just like a DVD player you hook up to your t.v is because it will not allow you to burn copy protected vhs tapes, Disney is very hard on not letting you make copys of their movies. I would say get a computer that has the ability to copy DVDS and use the software I mention below, if there is a way to make those out of the box DVD recorders copy the protected movies I do not know of a way.

   For a computer…. however.. below is the way for DVD

   Here are the tools I use to copy DVDS for my own personal back ups. I know some folks do not trust some sites due to all the junk spyware out there and virus stuff. But look at my answer history, you will see that I can be trusted. D/load the free protection I recomend. I trust the programs I mention below and use them. I also believe in try before you buy.
   ……… - DVD Shrink Freeware will copy most DVDs but there are some it will not copy.
   ………. - AnyDVD and CloneDVD
   These 2 programs are great, 21 day free trial, and I have them both. AnyDVD and CloneDVD they will take off encryption and protection.
