Do you like being able to backup/copy the DVD’s that you own? There are all kinds apps to help you to copy the DVD’s, but often times you need to use multiple tools to get the job done. Some people use one program to copy a video to their computer, another program to shrink it so that it will fit on a regular (single-layer) DVD, and then another one to burn it back to a DVD.

DVDFab Platinum does all of that, and more! It has several different options for copying a DVD including the full disc, just the main movie without the trailers or anything, or you can even split a DVD-9 (dual-layer) movie onto two different DVD-5 (single-layer) discs. If you split a DVD onto two discs you’ll prevent the loss of quality, which is important to a lot of movie goers out there.

One of the more interesting options that I haven’t seen in other DVD copying applications is the merging of multiple videos. That’s used for taking, for example, season 1 and season 2 of a television show and compressing them to fit on a single DVD. You’ll probably only want to do this if you’re using dual-layer discs otherwise the quality will probably start to noticeably suffer.

DVDFab Platinum also has several different encoding options for converting DVD’s into a more portable format. In just a few clicks you can have a DVD ready to go on your iPod, PSP, cellphone, and more. More advanced users will enjoy the variety of configuration options that are available:
