Hi Yonas:

You don't say how you create the original DVD but it seems to me that the 
easiest way to "duplicate" the DVD would be to just burn two copies to begin 
with.  If you're doing this in a gui application, they usually have a place 
where you can specify how many copies to burn, and if you're using cli, then 
just up-arrow to bring the last command from history and run it again.

HTH,
Tom
