Sometimes you can copy a DVD or backup your home movies
that are on DVD disc without having to use a program to shrink the contents.
When your dvd data is larger than 4.7gb you will have to shrink it to fit on
a normal blank DVD disc. I usually use
DVD
Shrink for that.
You can simply copy or backup a DVD disc with Nero
Express if:
You have a DVD burner installed into your
computer.
Your data or movie on the DVD disc is smaller than
4.7gb.
You are legally allowed to backup or copy
the disc. (There are different laws for different countries)
How to Backup a DVD disc with Nero Express:
Open Nero Express
Put the DVD disc that you want to copy in your dvd burner
Go to the drop down menu at the top
Make sure you choose DVD and not cd
Then move along the menu and choose Backup
Then form this menu that appears, choose Copy DVD
After this you must choose some settings to copy your DVD
disc. The most important one is to set the source drive (Where
the disc is you want to copy) and your destination drive
(Where the blank DVD will be). You can also change a few other settings,
however when you are a beginner it is best to keep it simple. All you have
to do is have the right dvd disc in your dvd burner and Nero will do the
rest.

Notes:
You can put your DVD disc in your DVD burner
and Nero will read the disc and then ask you to insert a blank DVD to write
to.
You can also choose to set a lower writing
speed which sometimes is better for detailed data like movies.
