Here is my four step way for making backup copies of
a DVD.  Step one mounts the dvd.  Step two makes a
directory onto the drive and copies the dvd.  Step
3 makes the iso from that directory.  Step 4 is the burning.

mount /mnt/dvd
dvdbackup -M -i/mnt/dvd -o /home/matt/copy/ -nwallace
mkisofs -dvd-video -o wallace.iso /home/matt/copy/wallace
I used to use something called cdrecord-prodvd.  Now
I just use K3b for the actual burning.
