[KLUG Members] Duping a DVD

[Mark Bystry]

there are a few dvd duping programs for linux. how you guys do this at the command line always 
amazes me. anyway, xdvdshrink, k9copy, dvddecrypter (wine) all work for me. the only problem that i 
have had is that i cannot always grab all the menus on the dvd. for example, the extras and bonus 
track stuff. most of the time i get JUST the movie, which i like but my wife hates. i also use tovid 
  to convert divx and xvid avi files to vcd, svcd, and dvd discs.
