Remember that dvd are usually up to 7-8GB of info and will take up room on your HHD very quickly. Fairuse Wizard is a good program for compressing the movie only to 700mb.

One way.. and the only way to copy a protected dvd to a dvd recorders hard drive with out taking the encrytion keys and copy protection etc out of it first, is to play it in another dvd player and record it on that way, but it won't work for videos due to macro vision and you wont have menus etc. But you would want a 400gb hdd recorder if you wanted to do a few as it eats up space.

RE#7 Have tried plugging old dvd player into HDD, but still comes up with 'protected'. Praps I should try plugging it into another input.
