Mini DVDs are very cute and if you have a video camera, you will certainly appreciate them a lot because they allow you to store so much information. But when you have a bunch of mini DVDs, you start wondering if there is a way to make all this information more compact by copying the contents of the mini DVD to a normal DVD.

DVDs with copyright protection are not easy to burn. You may want to make a spare copy of a video you love, so that if the original gets damaged, you still have what to watch. Of course, if there are just minor scratches, this can be fixed but inevitably a moment comes when the DVD is so seriously damaged that nothing helps. Sometimes the easiest you can do is go to the local DVD store and buy one more copy. However, if the DVD is out of print, this strategy does not work.

Video cameras are a great technological invention and thanks to it your memories can live for decades. However, you will hardly want your memories to be buried inside the camera. This is somehow inconvenient, especially when you want to show your videos to somebody, who is thousand miles away. Sending the video camera itself ...
... is not an option, so you obviously need to find a way to get your videos from inside the camera.

In order to enjoy and share your videos, you definitely need to move the data to a normal sized DVD, so you can watch on a computer or television, without all the hassle of taking the camera wherever you go. Then, you can also make duplicates for friends and family who may also appreciate seeing a memory they were unable to share at the time it was being made.

In fact, the process of copying a Mini DVD to a normal-sized DVD is not so difficult and it is much easier than copying a copyright protected DVD. Of course, it has its intricacies but you do not have to buy decrypting software or rip DVDs.

The first challenge is that it might not be possible to play your Mini DVD on your computer's player. In this case, you can try playing it on your desktop or on your laptop. The second challenge is that you must have a DVD burner. If everything is in place, you can connect the video camera to your computer and start copying the videos to your hard disk. After that you can use a video processing program to edit the movies and possibly compress them, if they are too large. The last step is to burn all this on a blank DVD.

So, now you are ready to enjoy your video camera. You already know how to transfer the videos to a Mini DVD, so what are you waiting for � start shooting. You can always make a copy to a DVD of your movies, edit what you think is to be edited, give them to the people you love, and watch them on TV or on your computer.
