Hello guys, and congratulation for the job. I have learned alot more than I knew about DVD concepts and tools in the last 2 days I've been wondering this forum. The problem I have lies within one comercial DVD (it's not a movie) which looks like a hard nut to crack. It is CSS/CPPM protected. I have tried AnyDVD (last version), DVD Decrypter (last version) and all seems to fail. The problem is around 40% of the ripping when one .vob file fails with I/O error. I have tried many times, with different settings, and it still doesn't work. The disk is brand new, not a scratch on it. For me it was a challenge, I received it from someone who bought it (it's a commercial presentation) and said it can not be copied. I will post below the log output from DVD Decypher (nevermind the firmware issue, I have the latest version). I am waiting for your advice. Regards. [bold]DVD Decypher output[/bold]
Try these new settings inside DVD Decrypter and give it another shot. I highly recommend ripping via Mode, File F -- I've done nearly 99.99% on all of my ripping with DVD Decrypter and so far, it still rips awesomely. Let me know, if you run into any issues with the below settings alright and I'll see what I can do. *NOTE: in prior to the ripping part, let’s tweak/set a few settings inside DVD Decrypter* ** open up DVD Decrypter, go to Tools, and Settings ** at General on “Removal Method” arrow down to “Aggressive” ** at I/O, check “Ignore Read Errors” ** at “File Mode” check on all of the Remove, Ignore, Patch and Create MDS file. ** at CSS check “Brute Force -->I/O key exchange, On Failure: use key from another file [YES] ** at “ISO Read Mode” check on all Remove and Create MDS file Once you’re done with the settings, click OK to get out from the settings.
Hello alkohol, and thanks for the reply. I did exactly what you told me (did it before, found your advice for someone else in the forum). It still fails when it reaches that specific .vob file. I assume that this file is some kind of protection. Have ou heard about this, or do you have any other ways I can try? Thanks again.
What movie are you trying to rip? Let me know and I'll see if I can help. There's always an alternative method you know. If "Brute Force" shows up saying; "there is no files or somthing for Brute Force to crack" just click OK and continue and you'll be fine.
It't not a movie, it's a comercial presentation. The ripping process jammes when it reaches that specific vob file I mentioned. It gives I/O errors. It retries several times (defined in settings) after that moves on, only to find another "bad" sector. Alternative ways?
hi iqued seems like ur DVD is ARccOS protected ... try DVD FAB or magic ripper . one of them should work regards
I've tried DVD FAB, no result, it stucks around 40%, when it reaches that vob file. I've seen the last days here on this forum something about some garbage file used as protections, and how to remove it with IFO Edit. I can't seem to find it. Anyone can help with this, or suggest other ways? Regards.
Hi, @iqued i believe the link you may be looking for is http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?t=56831. I saved it in my favorites as i can't find the thread myself but knew it would come in handy. Good luck and let us know if you got it sorted.
you sure its not damaged,just because the disk is brand new,doesnt mean its ok try and use isobuster to extract it,set to omit errors when the eror message pops up
Hello guys, thanks for the help once again. Indeed, although the disk was not scratched, it was faulty. I got another copy, and it worked perfect. The next problem I have, concerns picking the best tool to add/edit a subtitle. What I need in fact, is to export the english subtitle to a readable/editable format (txt, srt, etc). That file will be translated, and after added as a new subtitle (or replace another one). What would you choose?
