Test results

The copying of DVDs consists of two parts, first the re-encoding part and then comes the burning part. Burning the data to disc relies on what type of writer you have and as such we won't be testing that. Instead we focus on the encoding part and how long that takes. Although the encoding also depends on the system you have, it also shows how fast the coding engine can be. From the test results below you can then relate and compare on how it does on other systems.

Source Size 1Click DVD Copy Encoding time
Preset Compression
DVD 7.1 GB Movie Only 17% 16 mins 57 secs
DVD 6.1 GB Movie & Extras 39% 23 mins 5 secs
Hard Disk 7.59 GB Full Disc 48% 18 mins 16 secs
Unencrypted DVD 4.6 GB Full Disc 5% 17 mins 25 secs

You can tell by the results, it doesn't take long to do the first part of the copy. As the compression increased, so did the time to encode the movie, but not by to much. The DVD reader also plays a significant part in the copying process, the result for coding directly from the hard disk shows that accurately. That by itself is a very good result. I performed the last 2 tests with Windows XP x64 too, the hard disk copy was 36 seconds faster and the unencrypted copy was 10 seconds faster. Nothing to write home about, yet, maybe future versions will be better optimized or perhaps an x64 version will be released.

Even though you are making a copy and compressing the copy, I didn't see any noticeable quality degradations or deformations. This means that it becomes a matter of personal taste and personal quality standards when you look at the quality. We can however test if all the copies run on various DVD players and so we did. Check out the results below.

Standalone DVD PlayersMedia readable
Daewoo DV5000Yes
PC DVD WritersMedia readable
Sony DRU700 (firmware: VY08)Yes
NEC ND-4550A [OEM] (firmware: 1.06)Yes
DVD ConsolesMedia readable
Xbox V1.0Yes

All the tested movies played on all of the review playback devices, even the now older Xbox v1.0 system. These are excellent results, meaning that the copies should prove compatible with most systems. Though keep in mind, the media you choose to put your copy on, plays an important role as well. As does setting the correct booktype for DVD+R media, it's very helpful for playback on some elderly DVD playback devices.
