Having major problems ripping this dvd! I normally use Ripit4me with DvdDecrypter, FixVTS or VobBlanker & DvdShrink which will still rip 95% of current dvds & if that fails then DvdFab (in movie only mode if necessary). However neither will deal with this dvd. DvdDecrypter will not read the initial vob file & DvdFab grinds to a halt at about 27%. Help please!!
Sorry should have been more specific I am using dvdfabhd 5.0.3.5 on movie only but it won't rip - stalls at 27%
Haven't tried anydvd recently - is this the one that runs in the background? Think i tried it a couple of years ago & it didn't work very well - maybe it's better now?? Will give it a go
Iluvendo is correct, some movie (exceedingly recent ones) dvdfab4120 backed them up while the newer versions of fab would not. Please try it, you have nothing to lose Elvira
Right got anydvd 6490 now. How do i use it?? sorry to be a donut but i have never got on with this program. it opens the disc & tells me what it is so do i then use normal ripping software to rip? tried ripit4me again with anydvd in background - no difference! also how can i get dvdfab 4190 - got older version 3112 and 5035
Anydvd shows this:- Summary for drive D: (AnyDVD 6.4.9.0) _NEC DVD_RW ND-3500AG 2.58 04110500 Drive (Hardware) Region: 2 Media is a DVD.

Emulating RPC-2 drive with region 2! Dvddecrypter will not rip it. Upgraded DvdFabHD to 5.1.2.2 and this will not rip it either - tells me to disable Anydvd which i did & still no good...grrr
Update DvdFab to most current version (5.2.0.5) and try ripping movie only. EDIT: disable Anydvd before ripping with DvdFab.
Try the latest of DVDFab HD Decrypter 5205 http://www.dvdfab.com/download/DVDFab5205Beta_avangate-689.exe Once it's done, process with either VobBlanker or FixVTS and see if it's a success.
Right tried latest version of DvdFabHDDecrypter 5.2.0.5 stalled after 41%. It then suggested I try again with the pathplayer(?) option so tried that left it ripping went to watch Madagascar 2 with the kids came back 4 hours later on 12% reading at .02MB/s!!! HELLLPPPPP!!!
By the way also tried latest version of Clonedvd with Anydvd running in background - again crashed at about 30%! Has anyone else had problems with this dvd or has anyone successfully ripped it?
Sounds like you have the dreaded bad pressing. Exchange disc and retry (assuming the optical surface is clean)
Been there, done that, exactly the same! Have ripped Hancock since & all ok so cannot be a drive/lens issue. Anyone got any more suggestions??
No, No, Lamchops is saying that your disc may be bad. You need to go back to the store you bought your dvd from and exchange it for another one. Jo
this DVD isn't released where I live till 12/16/08 (USA -east coast). Maybe this is why you can't copy it yet...... they need time to update the programs so it can handle this release.
Thanks a simple answer. Was wondering why nobody else having difficulties! Hey we do get some films first here in uk!! Will keep watching for updates - thanks again
I have managed to back up this film today using dvd decryter and pgcedit. I did get error messages so cleaned disk and tried again and it worked
I'm not old school, but as Grandma used to say K.I.S.S, so what I usually start out with is DVD Shrink, with Any DVD, and burn with Clone DVD. It work on this one.
