How and Why to create a ISO file using DVDFab
Most of You probably already know how to create an ISO file using DVDFab but for those newbies who's not exactly sure this is a VERY simple and short guide to instruct you.
Why create an ISO? The main reason I do this is to simply test the ripped file before burning to disc, sometimes new releases often have new protections and may not play back correctly or even have usable menus if using the "Full Disc" method within the DVD to DVD option.
1. Open DVDFab and insert your DVD to be ripped. Let DVDFab scan and open the disc. Once opened it should display as the "Source".
2. Now to create the ISO click the button with the disc icon and choose where You want the file to be saved after DVDFab finishes the rip. (see pic below)
3. You can create ISO files in every DVD to DVD mode and then use the file as Source in every mode EXCEPT "Clone".
Using an ISO as source will allow you to continue working with the file not only in the DVD to DVD option but also DVD to Mobile and Write Data. Use it for simple editing such as ripping the main movie only or converting to a Mobile option (saves your Optical Drives from wear and tear)
Hope this helps everyone new and old to backing up their DVDs
