Sorry that I am late to the party.  But, I need to correct the above.

If you burn the video to DVD-ROM, say a MKV wrapped video, there will be
no degradation.  If you take that MKV file from the DVD-ROM and burn it to
another DVD-ROM, again no degradation.  If you make an ISO of the DVD and
burn the ISO, no degradation.

You will only have degradation if you re-encode the video.  If the video
was MPEG-2 and was DVD-video compliant, you could author a DVD-video and
have no video degradation.  If you copy that DVD-video, you will have no
degradation.  But, if you have to recode the video before the DVD authoring
process, you will have degradation.  You will have NO further degradation
if you copy that authored DVD-video.

The key point is that you have to have recoding before you can have
further degradation.

All of the above applies to Blue-ray ROMs and/or Blu-ray authored videos.
