5.4 Recoding a Main Movie to DVD
You can use Nero Recode to copy the main movie of a DVD without additional extras. You
have the option of customizing and modifying the main movie's structure so that the data can
be written to a conventional recordable disc with perfect video quality.
Copyright
Unless you possess the copyright yourself, or at least have the permission of the
copyright holder, the unauthorized reproduction of discs may be a breach of
national or international law and may lead to severe penalties!
In order to recode the main movie of a DVD, proceed as follows:
1. Choose the Recode Main Movie to DVD task from the Nero Recode main window.
The My Movie Backup screen is displayed.
2. Insert the DVD you want to recode in the disc drive on your PC.
Keep in mind that the Fit to target check box is enabled so that the content of the
source DVD can be recoded during the subsequent process in such a way that it
fits the selected target format.
If the check box is disabled, the DVD-Video will be imported in its original size. In
this case, it is possible that the data volume will be so large that you will only be
able to store it on a double-layer DVD or on the hard drive.
3. Select the required import profile in the Title import profile area.
4. Click the Import DVD button.
The Browse Folder window is opened.
5. Select the drive or hard drive folder containing the DVD that you want to recode and click
the OK button.
The main movie of the DVD is imported and shown in the content area. If the source
DVD is larger than the target media, you can also see how the DVD is recoded
according to the chosen profile here.
Underneath, the capacity bar shows how much disk space is occupied by the imported
files on the disc graphically.
6. If you want to trim an individual video title:
1. Select the required video title.
2. Click the Trim Movie button.
The Trim Movie window is opened.
3. Choose the first and last frames and click the OK button.
