OK, I have got Mactheripper working to copy my DVDs to my HD and have a half dozen movies ready to back up... Can someone please tell me if just selecting the file in Path Finder(or Finder) and clicking Burn, will burn a functioning DVD... I know that I could BUY Toast etc... but I already own the discs and don't feel like spending money to back up MY content... Nothing against Toast / Popcorn...

Or can I use Disc utility, and create a disc image with the video_ts file in it... Please note the Title of the Thread "for Dummies..." Keep it simple...

Really? I should search first???

Thank you for your wisdom... I did that already. If you have the answer, then post it. I have tried a couple of methods using disc utility and burn from the finder, with the discs not functioning like a DVD.
Please don't use the size tag. OreoCookie
