DVDs are designed to last, but there’s no stopping human error. It’s so easy to scratch your favourite DVD, important backup discs and more. You might then struggle to find a replacement and, of course, lost important data if you’ve backed up a drive to a DVD.

CloneDVD will make a 1:1 backup of your DVDs. Whether you’re backing up a movie DVD or a data DVD, CloneDVD will compress video in brilliant quality and at high speed. A special transcoding technology compresses your choice of DVD titles according to your audio and language selection automatically to a freely adjustable target size. Our unique Film Strip assistant will guide you step by step through all settings.

With the help of the Video Preview you select the desired DVD titles and decide if you want to trim individual chapters. Quality bars show the direct influence of the title and language selection on the quality of the movie copy. Even beginners always keep track.

Note that you can make one single copy of a commercial audio CD or movie DVD for your personal-use only. By making a backup copy, this backup copy should not be rented, lent, further copied or given to a third party.
