DVD copier needed

I find myself in need of copies of a couple DVDs quickly. Can anybody recommend software taht I can downlaod that will do it? The Nero software that came with my DVD burner doesn't seem to be up to the task (even though it can play the files on the DVD). What I want is something that will do a direct digital-to-digital copy, not an actual rip--these DVDs have home-produced video of a local theatrical production that we need an archive of before they go back to the video company for editing, so there is no Macrovision or anything to contend with.

Are they dual-layer disks or home-made disks?

Never heard of it!

CloneDVD did the trick. I copied the raw files off the disc to my computer and then used CloneDVD to burn a couple copies. I still don't know what Nero's problem was, but it said there was a "read error" from the disk.

Even though your problem is solved you should look at Alcohol, it's a great tool.
