Hi all
I just got a copy of Toast Titanium 10 and want to back up my dvds. The first one i tried said that the disc is copy protected. How can i get around this or can I? I just want to have the files so i can watch them on my computer and store them on my hard drive so i can watch them whenever wherever without the disc.
Thanks!
 
You will have to rip them first to remove the copy protection

Mac the Ripper
Mac DVD Ripper Pro

Or many others

Or you can use Handbrake if all you want is to watch them on your computer or iPhone

In what format is it? Try playing the ripped movie in e.g. VLC for Mac
