I think he meant "taped" as in "recorded" onto disc - having bought a DVD
burner and wanting to rip and burn the good ones to "another" DVD.

If I am wrong then you are obviously correct in what you have advised.

If I am right then any ripping program will get the recordings to computer
to deal with.

Can't think off the top of my head though of an exact site that will give
instructions, although there are a few out there that I found by Google when
I needed help.
