Being Julia a problem for DVD Backup

DVD Backup stopped after a few seconds into the first 1024 meg VOB. I also noticed the Windows utils had problems with this one. Think this is the new wave of copy protection we've been hearing about?

 

No. I was able to copy it on my PC using my usual setup of AnyDVD and CloneDVD 2. That being said, some people have had problems. But it seems that some people have problems with almost any movie. Not all the same people or all the same movie. Interesting. I feel fortunate (*knocks on wood*) that I have been successful.

 

I've never had a problem with backing up movies before.

Interesting. I guess I'll have to wait for the mac community to catch up to Sony.

 

Mac The Ripper has been able do disable Arccos for months. Just use that.

 

I used MacTheRipper 2.6.6.....it goes right into Full Disk ArCcos extraction and there were no problems.

 

Thanks for the MTR tip, you guys.

 

I had a similiar problem in extracting "Being Julia"....the extraction finally succeded when I did a "main feature only arccos" extraction.....popcorn was used from there....

 

I had a terrible time with "Being Julia" and I'm not a newbie. Tried on Mac and PC. Several times. Nothing but problems

 

On the Mac: click the mode button in mtr and then select "main feature ARccOS" then use Popcorn.....this worked for me.

 

Here's a new Sony movie that seemed to be without arccos: The Merchant of Venice.

 

Full Disk ArCcos in MTR....should I use this all the time? or just on Sony disks? Are other makers using it?

 

MTR is supposed to automatically switch into that mode. Sometimes it doesn't though. So if you run into those problems try it.
