You set the proper copy protection flags, send the output to DLT, and then ship that off to a DVD replication facility. You did want 1000 copys, right?
You can’t copy protect “burned” DVDs.

You can set a copy protection flag in DVDA 3, but this only enables a replication facility to actually add the copy protection. There’s no copy protection that you can apply when you burn discs on your drive, and there’s no copy protection at all that cannot be easily defeated.
Sad, but true.

As has been pointed out in this thread, you can’t do it with your DVD burner. I also am not sure of the value of this. If someone wants to copy your DVD they can do that easily enough whether you copy protect it or not. It will only take an extra few minutes. With the software out there, it is basically a one-click process, and the software is free.

Indeed. All copy protection mechanisms only protect against direct digital-to-digital copies. If someone desperately wanted to copy your DVD all they would need to do is play it and capture the image with a capture card or box. Sure, it will be lower quality but it may be good enough for what they want.
Good luck.
