k3b and dvd's


I have a laptop with a dvd burner. Since the laptop only has 1 cdrom drive, how do I burn movies? Do I copy the entire contents of the dvd to the hard drive and then burn from there? ... thanks all...

There is an option in k3b under "Burn Options" I believe where you can specify whether to copy on the fly (which obviously is impossible with only 1 dvd drive) or create a temporary image in a directory of your choice (default = /tmp).
