DVDFab DVD Copy 10.2.1.7

Overview

DVDFab DVD Copy 8.1.2.0 is the latest edition of this powerful and flexible software that allows you to clone, burn, decrypt, convert, copy, and backup any DVD or Blu-Ray disc, regardless of the DVD Copy protection technology that is restricting writing/rewriting/copying access on the disk. In other words, you can copy or convert any DVD or Blu-ray disc into virtually any viewing format.

Interface

One of the first things you'll notice about the DVD Copy user interface is that it is neatly organized into eight different modules, each of which lets you perform a different action with your DVD or Blu-ray discs: Write Data, Main Movie, Merge Split, Full Disk, Customize, Customize Split, Clone.

Pros

• The software allows you to read, edit, and revise any type of data on a DVD or Blu-ray disc, whether it be converting the format, or copying it to your hard drive.

• The cloning module provides a perfect 1:1 DVD clone, and is also capable of compressing larger DVD-9 files into smaller DVD-5 files while retaining the majority of the original quality.

• With DVD Copy's proprietary data recovery technology it is even possible to copy discs that have been badly damaged or scratched.

Cons

• Can be demanding on computer resources - freezes can occur if too much of a load is placed on the system memory during DVDFab DVD Copy operations.

• May require a slight learning curve to become familiar with all of the main modules.

What's New in Version 8.1.2.0

DVDFab DVD Copy now offers full support for glasses-free 3D, a technology that allows you to view fully three-dimensional content without the annoying or nerdy glasses that would otherwise be required. The new version has also implemented a new 3D device mode within several of the modules, including DVD Copy's DVD Ripper, Blu-ray Ripper, 3D Blu-ray Ripper, and Video Converter. In fact, this '3D Device' mode utilizes the latest interleaved SBS 3D output, making it possible to view 3D on smart phones like the iPhone 4, and ensuring that all 3D output from DVD Copy are of the highest quality. As with many of the previous versions of the software, 8.1.2.0 is able to remove all known DVD/Blu-ray protections.

Alternatives

There are not many alternatives to DVDFab DVD Copy that can match the functionality, user-friendly interface, and overall value of software. However, there are a few others that are capable of removing DVD copy protections, most notably AnyDVD HD, CloneDVD, and MakeMKV. While some users report that AnyDVD HD is more comprehensive than DVDFab DVD Copy, most agree that DVDFab DVD Copy gives you the ability to tweak outputs more.

Conclusion

Whether you're trying to compress a film so that will fit on a smaller storage device or disk, or copy one of your favorite DVDs from the rental store to your hard drive, DVDFab DVD Copy 8.1.2.0 can read, copy, and burn Blu-ray's and DVDs to a disk or ISO file quickly and easily. If you're trying to get the most value from your DVDs or Blu-ray discs, there is no other software that can match DVDFab DVD Copy.
