Quality of Copy:  

DVD Cloner 7 makes great DVD copies. We were able to copy high-action, special effects heavy movies like Iron Man and many new releases effortlessly. DVD Cloner was able to compress the length of our studio DVD on to one DVD-5 with little quality loss. However, we did notice some visible artifacts around lettering, but this is typical of DVD copy software and the minor distortions aren’t distracting.

We will make one professional suggestion. If you are copying from a DVD-9 or a DVD-5, which is the most frequently use option because Dual Layer DVD burners are expensive, use the “Movie Only” option as frequently as possible. This helps avoid over compressing your main feature and preserves the overall quality of your copy. Or if there are a few special features you would like to keep like deleted scenes or gag reel use the “Customization” feature where you can choose specific sections of the DVD to copy.

Program Stability:  

We didn't encounter any problems or errors while using this product. It proved compatible with our other software, burners and the copies played on all of our DVD players.

DVD Cloner 7, with its included CSS decryptor, trumps the competition. With this DVD copy software package, you can copy almost any DVD or CD (and, with the additional software, Blu-ray) disc to create quality back-up copies quickly. The easy-to-use interface and multiple customization options make it the choice of beginners and advanced users alike.

Now you can archive your expensive originals and use your portable inexpensive copies without worrying about damage or theft. If something happens to your copy, just make another; it’s that simple.
