HELP ME!!!!!!!!! Question regarding burn Copy Protected DVD

[hawthorn]

I have been trying out my new Pioneer A06 DVD Burner, and the first dvd went alright, and then the 2nd one (I use Clone DVD), came up with the message:

Clone DVD does not backup copy protected DVD's!
Many DVD's are Content Scrambling System (CSS) encoded, which is a copy-protection file system. If a DVD is CSS-encoded then the DVD reader will refuse to access the disc. Therefore Clone DVD Cannot read the files and make a copy.

Is there any program that will let me make a clone of a copy protected dvd, in so much as having all menus and chapters etc, or would I have to stick to ripping it to VCD quality as a back up method?

Please any one with any suggestions let me know.

Thanks in advance.

rip it to the harddrive first with dvd decrypter, which will remove the protections. then run it through clone dvd

Try anydvd or dvd region free, saves ripping to hard disc first.

Try anydvd or dvd region free, saves ripping to hard disc first.

Errrrr! Region coding has nothing to do with CSS protection!

[djyeo]

DVD region free does not only remove region coding, it also removes CSS, Macrovision and other copy protections.

Y'know, I keep hearing that about DVD Region Free...

It must not do a very good job of DeCSS, since I never hear anyone in here suggesting it in a serious way.
