I recently purchased a LG model GMA-4020B DVD burner. Every DVD I have tried to record from says that it is copyrighted, and cannot be ripped or copied. All of the DVD media I am attempting to record from and record to are scratchless and work fine in any other DVD player. The two media types I have used to attempt to burn to are DVD-R and DVD-RW. Is there something I have done wrong in setting it up? My source drive is a LG model DRD-8160B DVD-ROM drive. I also downloaded B's Gold 5.32 and I still cannot record DVD’s. PLLLLLEEEEASE help me here. I have tried everything I could possibly think of to fix this. My jumpers are set to where the DRD-8160B is the master and the GMA-4020B is the slave. I also downloaded Gold 5.32 and I still cannot record DVD’s. Is there something wrong in how I have it set up or are these DVD’s simply unable to be copied because of copyright issues?
