Um, basic question. Was DVD Player running? You have to make sure
nothing else could be using the DVD. So, if DVD player was running, it
might prevent Disk Utility from getting complete access to it.

That's good info ... I happen to be on a Mac G5, which plays the DVD
fine. I tried my version of Toast Titanium (5.2) and when asked to
copy, it just said it couldn't because Files needed to be unmounted.
Well, it's not critical to have a copy of this DVD, it would just be
nice .... so I'm not about to slash wrists over it or anything ...
Thanks for the help.

If it's something you desperately need, check in person with someone
with
experience on a Windows PC. There are lots of good utilities for copying
those DVDs that run into trouble on generic operating system
installs, with
all the convoluted DVD protection schemes. I just love that DVD Region
Killer application. :)
Some ideas:
1. Sonic MyDVD is supposed to copy DVDs from standalones.
2. Double-check that your DVD player reads the format. Some units do not
read DVD+R.
3. The DVD might not be closed (standalone boxes can do that, and
many DVD
players don't care). Close the DVD using your burning application,
and then
see if it reads correctly.
4. See this thread on how to copy these using a PC:
