Hi Darrin, one thing I've found to work well is a piece of software called DVD Shrink.
The program is absolutely free, and will rip almost any DVD and shrink it to standard size DVD's. I have copied and pasted the exact description from the DVD Shrink help file below. You can probably get it by doing a Google search for DVD Shrink, but if you can't find it, let me know and I'll send space a copy to you. In terms of accessibility, It's kind of hard to say, since I mainly use the back-up utility, which copies or creates an ISO image for copying or burning to hard disk, or as the name denotes, copying or backing up DVD's, and so have never really delved into the other features of the program. The menus and such seem to be completely accessible, and the various features I've used all use standard dialog boxes for interfaces, making them one hundred percent accessible. Anyway, hope this is helpful. ***Begin Extracted Information.*** What is DVD Shrink? DVD Shrink is software to backup DVD discs. You can use this software in conjunction with DVD burning software of your choice, to make a backup copy of any DVD video disc. DVD Shrink will also burn your backup DVD, if you have installed the latest version of Nero. You can download a demo version of Nero here. If you already possess alternative burning software and prefer to stick with it, then you can still use DVD Shrink. The output from DVD Shrink can be saved as files on your hard drive, or as an ISO disc image on your hard drive, which you can then burn with software of your choice. DVD Shrink is free software. You should never pay for DVD Shrink. Please refer to the License Agreement. Why use DVD Shrink? Most DVDs are designed to prevent you from making copies. The first preventative measure is encryption. Commercial DVD titles are often encrypted, which prevents you from either copying them to your hard drive, or if you manage to do so, being able to play the resulting files. DVD Shrink overcomes this problem with built-in decryption algorithms, which means you can use DVD Shrink to backup a DVD directly, without requiring any other software. The next problem is not so easy. Most DVD video titles are simply too large to fit, without modification, onto a single recordable DVD-R disk. DVD Shrink overcomes this problem by compressing or "shrinking" the data from your original DVD. The latest DVD Shrink 3.2 contains state-of-the-art compression algorithms, rivalling those found in the best commercial softwares. DVD Shrink also allows you to re-author your DVD. You can make your own compilation from one or more source DVDs, or select only the parts of a DVD which you intend to view, thus preserving more space on your backup for the highest quality viewing. Last but not least, why use DVD Shrink? Because DVD Shrink is free ***End Extracted Information*** Victor Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help from Mailman with your account Put the word help in the subject or body of a blank message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/managers.php If you wish to join the Blind Computing list send a blank email to the following address: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
