Thanks. Will this work for encrypted dvds given that I have libdvdcss
installed?
My disk writer/reader isn't working anymore. But I decided to simulate
with Brasero.
I cannot use Brasero to copy a CD/DVD to a disk image, but I tried using
Brasero to make a disk image from files and directories, and after
opening, Brasero, selecting "Create data project", selecting the files,
Yes, I know. I'm talking of the general advice because dd is not a
general-purpose ISO-making program so I am throwing that caution out there
for people.
"The ISO is the bit for bit data on the disk"
Not exactly. It's supposed to be an ISO 9660 file system. So dd if=/dev/sda
of=hdd.iso would not be an ISO image (because /dev/sda for me is ext4.)

You could always try xfburn too.
If K9copy can't do it, I don't know what will do it undr GNU/Linux. You'll
need AnyDVD for some disks.
I should mention I've tried Brasero but I get the message "The data size is
too large for the disc even with the overburn option."
It wants to rip the .iso straight to my home but I don't have room there. If
I could rip it to my second drive then there would be enough room, but there
I'm looking for the quickest and easiest way to rip a DVD straight to .iso
Preferably something with a UI for my small brain, but if there is none then
anything will work really
I already have libdvdcss and can play the DVD in SMPlayer, so I know there's
no problem reading it.
