Save an ISO for a disc backup
An ISO image can preserve an accessible disc's content for storage or writing to another disc. It is usually much larger than a phone-friendly video because the job is copying disc data, not choosing a new video bitrate.
Power DVD Copy includes a guided source-drive and output-image workflow, with verification. That makes it useful for unprotected home-authored DVDs and similar projects you are allowed to copy. It does not offer movie-disc decryption.
Convert to MP4 for video playback
MP4, MKV and other playable media files have codec, resolution, audio and subtitle choices. Power Movie Switch provides video conversion controls and disc-source import for supported accessible sources. Check that it can read your particular source before planning a larger collection.
Neither choosing a new filename extension nor writing an ISO changes its contents into MP4. Keep the source intact, decide whether disc structure or portable playback matters, and use the application that matches that goal.
Step-By-Step Instructions

Choose ISO or a video file
Choose an image for preservation or another physical disc. Choose a video file when the destination is a player, phone or editing application.

Use the matching tool
For an image, open Copy Disc Wizard in Power DVD Copy. For supported video conversion, start with Power Movie Switch and inspect the source it imports.
- 3
Check the image or video
For an image, use the available disc verification tools. For a converted video, check picture, audio, duration and playback on the intended device.
Common Questions
Does Power DVD Copy create MP4 movie files?
