DVD Cloner Review


Feature Set:

DVD Cloner 5 makes quality DVD copies quickly and gives you the option to copy bonus footage, subtitles, audio, language and menus. In addition, unlike most products, this cloner incorporates the ability to decrypt CSS encryption without requiring an additional download. With DVD Cloner 5’s decryption tools, virtually any DVD or CD can be copied. One new feature to Cloner 5 is the ability to make multiple copies of the same movie in one sitting. You simply choose the number of copies you would like and the software will prompt you every time a new blank disk needs to be inserted into the burner.

DVD Cloner 5 makes excellent, high-quality copies even if you are shrinking an entire full-length DVD (DVD-9) with all its bonus footage to a 4.5 GB DVD-R (DVD-5). It also supports copying to dual-layer DVD-Rs (DVD-9) so you don't need to compress anything. Note: You must have a dual-layer compatible DVD burner to take advantage of this feature.

If your burner is not capable of burning to a dual-layer DVD-9 disc, this software offers two good options. One, an excellent copy can be made by choosing “Movie Only,” this option cuts out additional bonus footage and menus, therefore requiring less compression. Additionally, you can split the entire DVD onto two DVD-5 discs with no quality loss.

New to DVD Cloner 5 is the ability to rip HD and Blu-ray disks directly to your hard drive with the use of a free plug-in. However, you can only utilize this feature if you have a HD or Blu-ray player already installed on your computer.

Bundled with DVD Cloner 5 is the ability to convert your DVDs to multiple formats using DVD to AVI, DVD to MPEG and DVD to SVCD. Typically this would require expensive additional software, but with version 5 it's already included.

This software also has the ability to copy to your hard drive, which is a useful, energy saving feature for laptops.

One of DVD Cloner’s best features is the ability to recover damaged DVDs. Integrated into the "full copy" selection, DVD Cloner will recover the damaged data like scratches or bad sectors, and restore the original data to your burned copy. Making a copy better than the original.

DVD Cloner 5 is extremely compatible with multiple languages including, English, Korean, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Greek, Hungarian and many more. It also supports PAL, NTSC, DVD+-R/RW, all home stand-alone DVD players and most DVD burners.


Ease of Use:

This product is exceptionally easy to use - even for non-techies, no matter which format you are copying to. The screens are well designed and intuitive. Version 5 includes an “Express Mode” and “Expert Mode.” With “Express Mode” copying DVDs is literally a “one–click” process.

In “Expert Mode,” the software guides you through the process of customizing and creating professional copies. You choose which chapters, language, audio tracks and bonus features to keep.

The help section is easily accessible and provides useful information; however, the product is so easy to use, we found that we didn’t have to consult it often.
Ease of Installation:

DVD Cloner 5 installs quickly and effortlessly. It does not require any additional downloads for standard copying, since it includes the latest decryption codes including the ability to copy Sony and Disney films.

To use the bonus software or HD/Blu-ray feature, you do need to make additional downloads; however, we found the process simple and easy to understand.


Quality of Copy:

This product makes outstanding 1:1 DVD copies—we were able to copy movies like “Transformers” and many other major new releases. Even the compressed DVD-9 to DVD-5 copies appeared to have little quality loss.


Program Stability:

We didn't encounter any problems or errors while using this product. It proved to be compatible with our other software, burners and the copies played on all of our DVD players.


Summary:

DVD Cloner 5, with its included CSS decryptor, trumps the competition. With this product, you can copy almost any DVD, CD or HD disk to create quality back-up copies, quickly.

Now you can archive your expensive originals and use your portable inexpensive copies without worrying about damage or theft. If something happens to your copy, just make another, it’s that simple.

You also get FREE DVD-TO-AVI, DVD-TO-MPEG, and DVD-TO-SVCD with a registered copy of DVD Cloner 5.

  • DVD-TO-AVI is an ideal choice to backup DVD copy speedily with fine audio and video effect.
  • DVD-TO-MPEG is powerful, convenient, and high-efficient software to convert DVD to MPEG.
