How to Rip (Copy) a DVD

This is a video that I made showing you how to copy a video off of a DVD and save it onto your computer. This works with Windows, Mac OS, and Linux. It's as easy as 1, 2, 3...., 10.

How to:
1. Get VLC media player from the links below.
2. Open VLC and go to the view tab. Then click "Advanced view"
3. Put your DVD into your DVD drive
4. Close the DVD if it starts to play itself
5. Go to "My Computer" or "Computer" in the Start menu
6. Right click the DVD and click "Play with VLC media player."
7. Choose the play button on the DVD
8. When the DVD menu is gone and the DVD is playing, click the record button.
9. When the DVD is finished, or the movie is over, click the record button again to stop it.
10. Play your video from the "My Documents" or "Documents" folder.

I downloaded VLC free from the net but, it doesn't have the record option. Is that something that only comes from a paid version?

@bradgray51

Make sure you download the one from the description and enable the options (instructions in video).

@Lumbad2010 Open the VLC player. Go to 'advanced controls'. There should now be a record button

to everyone who says they cant find the record button.....go to view, click advanced controls, and then you should find it.

Thanks so much for posting this, I've now got the hang of it & am happy that it was an easy tutorial to follow & understand. Keep up the great work, I will definitely look for your videos in the future :)

If it is using screen capture, when i will try to play it on anything bigger than my laptop, it will lose quality rapidly! WTF?

Hey man, I've tried every step you did on this video and it works perfectly, thanks man.. Oh by the way I got one question, do you know if you can record a dvd with subtitles, subtitles from the actual dvd disc??? Because I put subtitles from the start from the disc and in the end when I play through the movie there no subtitles :( please help me out.
