Copying A TV Episode DVD --> DVD

[sk1pmcgee]

I want to know how to burn DVD TV Episodes (Ex. Family Guy Vol1, 2, 3)

Is there a special way to do it. I already know how to burn movies, but I need to know how to copy TV EPisode DVD's --> DVD +/- Media

Any suggestions?

A little more clarification would be appreciated as to what you want to do...
Do you want to copy the whole DVD to another DVD or do you want to just
rip the episodes off and put them on another DVD?

MW - Thanks for reply

Prefably, I would like to copy the whole DVD to another DVd keeping menus, extras, etc.
But if too much quality would be lost, then I would prob just rip the eps off.

But for the topic of this conversation, whole DVD --> Whole DVD
Thanks

DVD Shrink would work but you might lose too much quality. If the quality degrades too much try VobBlanker to strip episodes that you don't need.

Edit - nice guide here

Hello again,

There are a couple things you can do depending on the size of the source disk. If it comes in around 5 or 6 GB, I would use DVDRebuilder with CCE and just shrink it down using 3 or 4 passes. Does a much better job of shrinking than DVDShrink.
If your source disk is greater than 6 GB, I would use DVDRemake and split the DVD between
two 4.37GB DVD's. This will give you the same quality as your source DVD. It;s pretty simple to do. Just load your DVD and hide the parts that you don't want on DVD 1 then save the DVD. Do the same for the 2nd DVD excepting hide the other files.
