Burn Videos to DVD

The burning speed depends on the length of the source file, the output settingsand the computer configuration. Here are some tips to improve the burning speed:

1. It is advisable to select Fit to disk instead of High Quality for the output DVD. The higher the quality is, the more time the product will take to burn it. However, there will be some quality loss.

2. As the recording function is very CPU sensitive. Closing other unnecessary applications is advised. You can press CTRL + ALT + DELETE on your keyboard then select task manager to close other unnecessary applications. Make sure you save any work before you close an application.

The DVD created by a DVD Recorder falls under homemade DVDs category. The structure of a homemade DVD is typically different from a commercial one. So you need to copy the files from the DVD to your local hard drive and then convert single VOB files.

Most commercial DVDs are protected with Content Scramble System (CSS). This is to prevent them from being illegally copied. CSS is a Digital Right Management (DRM) and encryption system, utilizing a proprietary 40-bit stream cipher algorithm.

Wondershare UniConverter for Mac (originally Wondershare Video Converter Ultimate for Mac) is able to convert videos and rip most DVDs except Commercial DVDs. However, you can try third-party softwares like the Free DVD Protection Removal Plugin, which enables the software to rip both common and commercial DVD movies. Check the guide for its installation steps.
