DVD Copying Program

Apr 3, 2012 9:15PM PDT

I am deployed for 6 months out of the year and have access to many DVD movies, some are foreign copied.. Different regions.. I would like to find the best DVD copying program so I can copy the movies onto my portable HD from the DVD's.. Is there a way around the regions codes? This is my only form of entertainment..

What I should do:
1. Make an image using IMGBURN
2. Mount the image via Virtual Clonedrive
3. Run my program to view DVD's

The two programs I mentioned are free downloads.

VLC PLAYER from memory can play from that .ISO image without having to use a mount program.
