How to copy DVD movie using DVDFab DVD Copy Full Disc mode

With DVD Copy Full Disc mode, you can navigate the menu, 1:1 output or compress the movie to

smaller size which can be held in a DVD 5.

1. First is that you startup DVDFab, and then load the movie disc to the drive, and let DVDFab

load it automatically. If the DVD source is saved on your hard drive, you can use the “+Add”

button to browse for the source, or simply open the source in windows explorer, and then

drag and drop it to DVDFab like DVDFab says in the middle of its interface.

2. After the movie is loaded, you will have the below main interface. On the left panel, you can

change the movie name before the copy process starts. Near the bottom, decide where you

want to save the output file by changing the SAVE TO location. For Copy option, you will have

three options, which are standard DVD structure folder, ISO image file, as well as your burner.

If you choose your burner/drive as SAVE TO, you will burn the movie to blank media directly.

As you know, there is single layer disc (DVD5) as well as dual layer disc (DVD9) for output.

Please choose one of the outputs according to your need.

The Compression ratio will change according to the output you select. Let’s take the below one as

sample: 7280MB is the file size of the original movie, while 4300MB is the size of the output file.

The output file size can be adjusted in the Common Settings window. But we would suggest you

keep the default one (4300MB) which is considered as the safest option for most of the burning.

3. You can also hit the Advanced Settings button to open the advance settings window where

you can make some change to the file you gonna output.

As a note, if the movie itself doesn’t contain any DTS audio track, the “Remove DTS” option

will be grayed out. And the option about “Remove menus” can only be selected or

unselected when you use Customize mode.

For the Navigation part of the Advance Settings, as the message states, you will need to go to

the Common Settings window to manage it as it is relative to the Pathplayer feature.

to start the process.
