Easy DVD Burning

If you are new to DVD burning and would like to make a backup copy of your favorite DVD movies then this tutorial is for you. This will guide you on how to create a 1:1 copy of your favorite DVD movies using our recommended software designed for inexperienced users. For you to start burning or copying DVDs you need to have the following:

Burning Requirements:

1. DVD Burner/Writer
2. Blank DVD Media – choosing the right media is one of the factors that contribute to a successful DVD burning.
3. At least 10GB of free hard disk space – for temporary file storage during conversion and burning process
4. DVD NeXt Copy Pro (highly recommended) – a DVD copying and burning software that will allow you to copy DVD movies with high quality and ease. With DVD NeXt Copy Pro you can’t just create a backup copy of your DVD movies to a blank DVD but you can also copy them to your iPod, iPhone, Zune, or PSP. Click to try DVD NeXt Copy Pro or buy DVD Next Copy Pro.

Before anything else make sure that the DVD that you want to copy is already inserted in your DVD drive.

Step 1: Open DVD NeXt Copy Pro program.

Step 2: Click on the new button to create a new project. DVD NeXt Copy will auto detect the DVD that you have inserted as the source.

Step 3: Click the OK button. No need to change the default setting.

Step 4: Click the “Start Button”. You don’t have to make any changes on the settings.

Step 5: Conversion process. DVD NeXt Copy will copy and convert the files into your hard drive to the temporary folder automatically set by the software – normally DVD NeXt Copy will automatically create a “DVDneXtCopy” folder in your C drive. This process will take a while depending on the file size that you are copying. Remaining time, estimated time, and elapsed time are displayed to let you know how long the process will take.

Note: If your drive C does not meet the free disk space required for the temporary file storage you can change it by clicking on the Settings tab then change the Project Library and the Temporary Path folder by clicking on the browse buttons and select your desired folders.

Step 6: After the conversion process DVD NeXt Copy will prompt you to insert the blank DVD to start the burning process. To start the burning process, remove the original DVD from the drive and insert the blank DVD and then click on the Burn button. That’s it! Wait until the burning process is done. Avoid browsing the net or checking your emails while burning is ongoing to avoid burning problems. When burning failure occurs try to do the following:

1. close all programs
2. restart your computer
3. repeat all the steps and use a different blank DVD
4. try to lower the burning speed

When burning is completed it will automatically eject the DVD. Just click on the OK button and close the program. Test and check if you have successfully created a new copy of your DVD. If you wish to create another copy repeat all the steps from 1 to 6.
