you can also try:

dd if=/dev/[dvd device] of=/home/[user]/Video/[Title].iso bs=2048 conv=notrunc

if the write protect fails that then try:

ddrescue -n -b 2048 /dev/[dvd device] [Title].iso

this will create a DVD duplicate ISO file.  VLC, available on the tablets, will play this easy, and it functions just like the disk; menus, extra features, etc.

I apologize for the top post.

Just checked this title on amazon.com and I see it's available in a
"Blu Ray / DVD Combo pack".

If you have a BluRay / DVD reader in your machine, and if per chance
you bought this dual-format pack, just make sure you're attempting to
rip the DVD version and not the BluRay.

The DVD format has always been easier to "rip". (And btw: since this
movie is animation, any difference in image quality will be almost
negligible).
