Can copying an infected file from a DVD to a flash drive infect the computer being used to copy the file?

I'm copying some files from a DVD to a flash drive on a computer. Is there any way without running one of the files (if it is infected) that a virus could infect the computer while being copied to the flash drive?

If you want to rip DVD and copy DVD to your computer, here is a step by step guide to rip DVD and convert any videos to other video formats and audio formats for iPod touch/classic/video/nano, iPhone, Zune, PSP, video capable MP3 players, etc. Meanwhile, it can also support output almost any audio/video format including Video format (H264, MP4, WMV, AVI, MOV, RM, 3GP, flv, SWF, mpeg-1, mpeg-2, VCD, SVCD, DVD, etc.) and Audio format (AC3, AAC, MP2, MP3, MP4, RA, WMA, etc.). It is easy-to-use and the converting speed is fast!
