Copy your DVD, part 2

1. Put a blank DVD in your computer.

2. Launch (i.e., start) Cheetah DVD Burner. When I launch the program, the left panels of the Cheetah window show me what's on the DVD (namely, nothing); the right panels show what's on my hard drive (namely, everything but my truck and some beer).

which brings up the following window. Select "Video DVD" and click "OK."

4. Locate the "Audio TS" and the "Video TS" folders that DVDShrink created (if you can find them -- heh, heh) and drag them to the area shown below. You can drag them both at once or one at a time.

5. Now click "Burn Disk."
