DVD copy software for WinXP

[JohnO]

I need to specify a DVD copying app for a non-tech customer. I use Nero and
have an extra copy, but that damn app wants to load a ton of schitt, steal
all the file associations and all I want is a simple copy tool. If I could
be there to uncheck all the boxes I might go that way.

Is there a small-footprint disk copier on the web somewhere? Free is nice,
and there's no need to copy protected DVDs, this is for home movies and
such.

Thanks!

Hello JohnO,

Maybe you can consider this...
For windows 95 / 98 / ME / 2000 / XP / Server 2003 / Vista: Infra Recorder
(3.19MB)
http://infrarecorder.org/

or this...

For Windows XP / Server 2003 / Vista: ISO Recorder (360KB)
http://isorecorder.alexfeinman.com/isorecorder.htm
This is a ISO recorder only (I think) and I'm sure others can make
additional suggestions...

Just to name a few:

- mkisofs (part of cdrtools) -- cmd line tool
- DVD Shrink -- copy DVD9 (9 GB) movies DVD's to DVD5 (4.5 GB)
- DVD Decrypter -- copy movies DVD's that have bad sectors (skipping
them) to HDD
- UltraISO -- copy DVD's to iso files on HDD with ability to mount
those ISO images. Also have ability to burn CD/DVD.

Despite the name, CD Burner Plus will also copy DVD's. And it's free.
