compiled DVD to DVD again

[tomchook]

hello, i'v compiled a DVD from VOB, BUP, IFO files, into ISO, burned it, and now i can watch it on my DVD-video.
my question is if I want to duplicate it, can i just copy it with nero (DVD copy) or should I go through all the process of decoding it again.
Thanks! - Tom

Yeah, you can just use your favourite copying software. Do you still have the ISO on your hard drive?
If so just burn a second copy.
If not one of the easiest ways is to use the ISO>>Read & ISO>>Write function in DVD Decryptor. Then if you expect to need multiple copies leave the ISO on your hard drive and burn as required.

the problem is that i already deleted the ISO.. so you're saying I should just use nero? thanx!

Absolutely, no problem using nero - I just prefer DVD Decrypter (it free too).

All I am suggesting is that it you intend to make many copies, rather than keep having to read the data from your disk create an image file (either by nero or DVD Decrytpter) once, to avoid repetidly copying the data to your hard drive.

ps if this a one of and you just want to use Nero, make sure you don't copy on-the-fly unless your DVD-ROM and DVD-RW are on different IDE channels.

If I have ANY doubt, I will always keep the Iname or ISO file in my HD till I am 100% sure I no longer have a need for it. Having tons of HD space will also help to keep the guilt of that 4+gig file taking up space away.

To re burn, I just use Decrypter or even Nero to write the image /ISO back to its original form to disc.
Open nero, close the wizard and clock on thr Recorder tab. Choose Burn Image, locate the ISO in your HD and click on burn.
