In the September issue of MacAddict or Macworld magazine there were instructions for burning games or programs from their DVD to a hard drive using Toast, and then playing the game without the physical DVD in the optical drive.
Would it be possible to accomplish the same trick with a DVD of a movie? We are not interested in pirating the movies! The goal is to allow a special needs child to view the movies without having to physically manipulate the disks.
Any help would be appreciated.
Yes, you can do this. If you mount a DVD as a disk in the finder, when opening it you will see a folder called VIDEO_TS. Copy that folder onto your hard drive. DVD Player (and VLC, btw) can play the contents of that folder.
