Once for a while, I keep concerned about backing up my beloved DVD collections for a long time to prevent them from some unexpected accidents. Some possible accidents I assume that, namely, they may be borrowed but lost by my friends, scratched by my kitty or doggy, or broken by my naughty kids, nephews, younger brothers and sisters. If that happens how am I supposed to deal with it? To buy 3, 4, 5 copies of the original disc? Does invest a bunch of money on the same DVD really valuable? What if it is a homemade disc?
I have searched ways to copy the disc to various devices to back it up. Here’s one of the most recommended and safest way to back up DVD easily. Keep reading this post and you will know all the details on DVD backup.

The source DVD file demonstrating is auto-detected by its engine, we select the file under the drop-down menu showing as arrow down button. Note that we didn’t change any of its customization checkboxes below by default. Then we click the Run button on the bottom right corner to start the process.
