I want to make a copy of a Video DVD.

I used Nero Burning ROM to copy, by using "COPY DVD" feature.
In options, I selected "Video DVD", with "Ignore Read Errors", but I CAN'T copy, there comes hundereds of "Unrecoverable Read Errors".

I also tried it to copy the DVD to my Harddisk, but there comes an error "MS-DOS Invalid Function".

How can I copy that Video DVD?
