Im only just getting to grips with DVD ripping & burning, so probably an easy question for someone.

I can back up my original DVD's no problem using Shrink and then Nero.
Would I then be able to do an exact copy of the back up copy of the DVD, if i wanted another copy, or would I have to run it through Shrink again?

I did try doing an exact copy before which didnt work, but the discs I were using at the time were suspect to say the least. I am now using Ritek's.

Thought Id try and save myself a coaster by asking first.

Thanks :)

The copy is already compressed and the macrovision's been removed so there's no need for Shrink. You can simply do a straight disc to disc copy.

Just point Nero to DVD Shrinks backup folder on your HD and you're off
