Problem Burning DVDs

So... I recently bought a MacBook Pro and a friend of mine asked me if it was able to burn DVD's. I said hell yes and now Ive gotten myself in a jam. I have about 8 DVDs (previously ripped from videos, video cameras etc etc) of old tattoo movies that I have to have burned asap.

I asked someone about what I should do and he told me to use the Disk Utility > Create Image > Restore to blank. I did that and everything went ok, except for when I put the blank disk in and it wouldnt allow me to restore.

My question is, do I need to just buy Roxio popcorn and do it because its easier and I'm an idiot, or is there another way to do it, and if so is it simple haha.

Thank you for any help!
 
Might be the same concept - with different results however. Disk Utility certainly isn't the right tool for video DVD copying, I'd say. Popcorn would be alright I guess. But if you _do_ hand out money, Toast is probably the tool you want to buy, since it does a whole lot more and also has Popcorn's features.
 
Thank you guys very much, I appreciate the help. Ill try toast out. Do any of you have a link that you can direct me to? Just incase I search it up and its not the same thing or whatever.

(Just so you know, I did do a topic search before I posted mine, but it really didnt turn up anything that I was dealing with, disk utility and whatnot)

hopefully this will save me a lot of time, i will go insane if i have to watch these movies over and over and over again..
 
You can see the details here.

Otherwise there are free solutions about as well, but Toast is the full package.
