I am not going to try, to find out, but I was intrigued to note that on a DVD of my daughter's dance school show it says that the DVD is encoded and that attempting to copy it via a DVD recorder or PC could cause irreprable damage to said devices.
Are the dance school bluffing in order to dissaude people from doing this and making sure they all pay for the DVD or can encoded DVDs really damage devices?

I can offer no resistance, I can offer no respite
Wake me when conflict is over,
I aim for a peaceful life,
Wake me up when the fury is ended
I like living a peaceful life

No...............
Just use Magic DVD Copier0 -
Not unless they've deliberately placed a virus on the disc.... But even if they had, a PC virus would have no effect on a standalone DVD recorder ....0
