Whatever backup tool you use, you have to select what parts of the disc it reads and converts. In the absence of making a selection, it may do everything, it may pick the main feature, that's going to depend on the tool. It may spool the whole lot together into one long video, it may split each title into separate files (movie.mp4, interview.mp4, etc). That's something you'd have to work out by studying the instructions for the particular tool that you're using. > What does it mean to "encode" a dvd? I am not familiar with that. Well anything that you can't represent directly is encoded. This email isn't actually full of letters, it's a series of codes (numbers) for each letter. That code is understood, by many things, and they can read and write it. Encryption is a different matter. That requires a key to code and decode. So, as far as DVDs are concerned. You take some video file, and if it's not already in the format required by the players (which only support a small number of methods), it has to be re-encoded to type of video file that it does need. e.g. An AVI source could be re-encoded to MPEG1 or MPEG2. Or the wrong kind of MPEG to the right kind (there's a plethora of variations). Or en encrypted file decrypted, re-written as that decrypted version. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.80.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Nov 8 15:48:59 UTC 2022 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
