In essence you need a drive capable of bit copying and software that produces DVDRom formatted dics. Media used is also important. The "F" disc is much more difficult to copy than earlier versions. I have been using a copy exclusively in my car with no issue other than the rare occurrence of a read error upon startup. Power cycling always corrects this so I think it's an issue with the Alpine deck, not the disc.

Shoot me a PM if you would like to "discuss" this further.
