I have been out this morning and replaced all my sons dvd's he is only 3 and uses them in his dvd player for the car but he has scratched pretty much all of them.
I know what to burn them all so he can have the copies and ill keep the originals up out the way.

I have used dvd fab to burn them to my computer but cannot for the life of me get them on to a blank dvd.

All tips very welcome as this is the 3rd time i have replaced the dvd's and it getting rather exspensive now.

    Hi
    When you have copied a disc onto your computer, what sort of files are they when you browse them in 'My Computer'?

    Hi
    That folder named video_ts is the one you want.
    I think that you need to burn that one whole folder onto your blank disc.
    If you have a ReWritable disc available it might be best to experiment with it.

    Hi
    I don't know how to help you with that bit. My system is different than yours, it's Linux.
    If you tell us which burning software program you are using (Roxio, Nero6, Nero7 etc) then probably other people on the forum will have that knowledge.

    I've not used dvdfab but I recommend http://www.videohelp.com to find help.

    I found this guide on it - http://www.mrbass.org/dvdfab/

    I use 'DVD Fab', then 'free dvd'(to remove any protection), then I burn Video files using Nero.

    You can download Nero HERE.

    Download a fully featured 15 day trial of Nero 7 from their website; http://www.nero.com/nero7/enu/nero7-demo.php

    Then just choose Copy DVD. Hopefully, it will do so without Copyright objections.
