Free DVD Creating Software
There are many free DVD creating software programs available on the market today. When it comes time to take files from your computer and arrange them on a DVD capable of playing back on your computer, you simply need DVD creating software.
It's important to select a program that will play back on your computer, DVD player and home theater. You will want to navigate these items easily so select a DVD creating software that allows custom audio track, subtitles and a menu for easy navigation.
Your selection should include a software program that supports multiple file formats and multiple video codecs. You want an easy to use interface and be careful because some shady manufacturers will install adware or spyware to their DVD programs. Nothing makes me more angry than adware on these applications. Most manufacturers will not even tell you.
Basically what you get with DVD creating software is simply the process of making a DVD capable of playing on a DVD player.
Almost all DVD creating software programs has a built-in encoder and this has been an industry standard that was implemented in 2009. If you are looking for audio DVD programs, you should look elsewhere. Most DVD programs are created strictly for video.
Differnet models and different brands have similar specs but most have their own way of doing things. I suggest that if you find a manufacturer that seems to work good with your present equipment, then stick with them even if you have to pay for upgrades to the creating software. It's always best to stick with what works.
Free DVD creating software actually involves burning your files to a disc which is done optically using a laser. The DVD file systems are sometimes referred to as ISO which is common for most DVD's.
Your DVD software package also includes packet writing applications so you do not have to burn an entire disc at once. Sometimes discs of this nature are referred to as a R/W or read write disc.
Be selective when choosing free DVD creating software. Go with a brand name that you recognize if possible. If it works, great. Always remember that if the software doesn't perform, delete it and try a different program.

Free Copy Protected DVD
Many of us have different needs when it comes to free copy protected DVD programs. there are many available on the market. It's up to you to make the right choice when selecting free copy protected DVD programs.
If you want to copy from DVD to MPEG1 or AVI it;s best to use a free copy DVD program. I can't make the selection for you but I can give you some guidelines.
Personally, I like to convert my media while also copying data to my hard drive or an external hard drive. This is the best way to make music backups. You can never have too many places to backup important files.
Since I do a lot of video editing, sometimes it's necessary for me to extract movie sound tracks from DVD's or videos I find on the internet. When I use copy protected DVD software, I can usually override the manufacturers code they put in the DVD's that prevent most people from copying DVD's.
There are also times when I need to select just a chapter of a DVD or a short movie clip and I don't want to copy an entire DVD. By selecting the right copy protected DVD software, I can easily do this with the features provided me on the software. It's free and I like to use the same manufacturer over and over when I find they have a product that is compatible with my PC equipment.
I always look for extremely fast copy speed and a batch conversion option. Once the copy is completed, I want the program to automatically shut down so it will not continue to use the resources of my computer.
Free copy protected DVD's can be found in single layer or dual layer DVD's. I've seen Blu Ray in a few programs. The quality of audio is important because many movies are recorded in Dolby. Dolby is what gives you all the cool sound effects in a movie.
Protect all of your DVD's by obtaining a free copy protected DVD program. Load your existing DVD, select the format in which you want to burn the DVD and begin copying.

Clone DVD Protected
Clone DVD protected software is usually a very easy program used to copy DVD movies. The best thing about clone DVD protected programs is that they remove all of the normal DVD protections inserted by manufacturers. Wouldn't it break to make backup DVD copies from all of your movies?
Not only will programs that copy DVD protected material copy movies, but generally all forms of multi-media. Another aspect that you will want to look for, is the ability to copy media from your portable devices.
Almost all clone DVD protected software programs give you the same features as paid programs. You can expect to see DVD Title, Chapter Preview and also scene selection and special features if you want to build it in initially.
What I like is the ability to copy certain segments or a whole movie. I also like to personalize my movies utilizing my clone DVD protected software. A lot of programs will let you customize the aspect ration also such as 4:3 or 16:9.
You want to be sure of the quality. If it doesn't give you perfect audio and video quality just like the original, I would search for a different brand of clone DVD protected software.
By removing the RPC-I/RPC-II/RCE region protection, you can eliminate the copyright protections usually found on DVD's.
Another feature to look for is fast built in video compression engine. Speed is always good. the more speed the better for burning a DVD.
High compatibility is a must when using clone DVD protected software. You need the DVD's to be able to play in DVD players and PC's. You want to be able to copy to single layer and dual layer DVD's. It should support NTSC or PAL depending upon the format of the country you are in.
I like user-friendly interfaces and if you find a clone DVD protected program that can copy a 2hour DVD in 45 minutes or less, I would say that is just about normal.
Depending on what country you live in, you may want to research whether the clone DVD protected program you select is multi-language.

Burn a DVD on your computer
In this example, I'm going to teach you how to burn a DVD on a Mac.
To Burn a DVD, in this example, I will be using an Apple MacBookPro which has the Leopard Operating System.
Open up the "finder" on your Mac. Insert a blank DVD into the DVD slot. On the left hand side of the finder window you will see your untitled DVD and the burn symbol beside it. Right click the untitled DVD and then click "get info".
Under the name and extension, type in the name of what you want your burned DVD to be and click enter.
Go back to your finder icon on your desktop and right click once again. Open up a new finder window. Place both windows side-by-side.
What you are going to do now before you can burn a DVD, is to drag files from one finder window into the burn dvd area. It's very simple to do.
Once you have dragged all the files you want, it's time to burn a DVD.
Click the little burn icon in the finder window. A new burn dvd window will pop up. You will have an option once again to change the name of the disc. You will also have the option to change the burn speed.
Click the burn DVD button.
Once again a small progress window will appear indicating that your MacBook is burning the DVD. It will normally state a percentage of completion. Depending upon the speed of the burn you selected, is how long the process takes.
It's a good idea to back up your files that do not have to be sitting on your hard drive taking up space. The easiest and cheapest way to free up some hard drive space is to just burn a DVD of your extra files and store them until you need them.
