It can be done. It's important to use quality media for the first backup. If the backup can't be read/ripped, then you cannot back it up.

I've backed up a backup using Shrink, or DVD Decrypter or Nero's disc copy feature.

I have no problem using Nero express to rip my backup dvd+r to make another copy.Like flip218 said,High quality media on the original backup is a must.
The verbatim +8x coded mcc003 allow me to rerip them. Maxell -4x yellow tops coded mxl-rgo2 are working ok also.The slightly lower quality discs won't allow me to do it. Make sure the media,especially those important ones, are made in Japan. They produce the best media.

once the movie has been ripped to hard drive, simply use Nero to burn from there for as many copies as you want. remember that all the grunt work, ie ripping has been done, all you're doing is copy the data to the dvd now

hursty,

Read the forum rules. You think I don't know you didn't start this thread? You still posted to it with the same problem. You've already started a thread about your issue. So I'm going to tell you again. No multiposting.

If you put the dvd in your computer.. Then use windows and "my computer" to find the dvd.. The files should appear there.

To copy my copies I use Nero, or DVD FAB. With them 2 I never have a problem.
