Can you use a DVD burner

[RTFMy]

Can you use a DVD burner to make backups of DVD movies?
I am lending a DVD to a friend soon, but I want to make a backup of it before I lend it to him.

I'm assuming yes, but just wanted to make sure.

Does NERO have anything like a built in decoder?

lol you joker... All I know is that all my friends who burn movies have some cracked decoder they use for copyright movies.

Check the box /manual/website of the dvd-burner for what discs your burner supports.
