  • Answer:

    You could use PowerISO and just make an image file and burn image to DVD. PowerISO also can be used to "mount" image to a virtual drive for playing movies/games ect.

There are many ways. One way is to make an "image" of the DVD onto your hard disk. Insert the DVD into the drive. Get Magic disc from http://www.magiciso.com/tutorials/miso-magicdisc-overview.htm After installation, right click on the magic disc icon on the task bar and select "Make CD/DVD Image" After selecting the source and the output files, click OK to make the image file (both .uif and .iso will work) After the image is made successfully, you can remove the DVD from the drive. Once again, right click on the magic disc icon. This time select "Virtual CD/DVD ROM" and go to "<>No Media" go to "Mount" and in the upcoming box select the image file which you created. There. You get a virtual DVD drive containing the workout DVD. I know this way may be hard, but you get to retain the best quality this way.
