CDs/DVDs with scratches - Save DVD's by Capturing?

[abrogard]

I back up my son's kid's dvd's when I can but some of them just can't be read by software such as dvd decrypter because they are too scratched and worn.

But they play okay, in the dvd player and on the computer.

So I'm hoping I can find some video recording software that I can use to record them with. I realise I'll lose all the dvd features - menus, jumping back and forth, whatever, but at least I'll have the movie and that's what he'll mainly be interested in.

So I've been trying various things that are listed on various web pages about this but i've had no luck at all so far. Nothing seems to work.

Does anyone know if there's anything I can use to do this job?

regards,
