Copy CD / DVD contents into an iso file

  • 772

The title seems to be self explainatory. I just want a software to do that. I already have Nero linux but i dont think it is capable of doing it.

Trying out the command line method
enter image description here
I get an Input /Output error though the iso file seems to be fine
also adding bs=1024 doesnt help much

10.10 cd dvd iso

    If you feel like going terminal you could try this:

    dd if=/dev/dvd of=/myiso.iso bs=1024

    There are other examples here:

  2. dvd:rip is a full featured DVD copy program A front end for transcode and ffmpeg. It provides an easy to use but feature-rich Gtk+ GUI to control almost all aspects of the ripping and transcoding process.

    AcidRip is an automated front end for MPlayer/Mencoder (ripping and encoding DVD tool using mplayer and mencoder) written in Perl, using Gtk2::Perl for a graphical interface. Makes encoding a DVD just one button click!

    K9copy is a KDE DVD Backup tool. It allows the copy of a DVD9 to a DVD5. It is also known as a Linux DVD shrink. It supports the following features: The video stream is compressed to make the video fiton a 4.7GB recordable DVD. DVD Burning. Creation of ISO images.

    Brasero is a good option and available in the software centre

    Also K3b is the one I use also available in the software centre (its more Nero-like)
