Can't copy saw 3 - **just needs DVDFab Decrypter**

i had no problems with crank, but i been reading that alot of people have had probs with it. but it looks as tho so far, saw 3 is ripping for me... at 4:30 am here there was sudden updates for RI4M which i downloaded and now its like 32% through and its been only 25+ minutes. not half bad.

i can only cross my fingers and pray that it will completely burn and open in shrink. haha

btw, some people might want to include also which version they are ripping. a buddy of mine ripped the regular version from the Trilogy set and it burned easily enough with just Shrink. i think its the Unrated and the Deluxe 2-Disc set (which i now wish i was ripping because i hear it has great special features) that are causing all this ruckus.

--the new update, WORKS beautifully.

 

I got a good Backup of Saw III using the latest version of Ripit4me & FixVTS…
Wasn’t sure what I was going to get, because in the ripping phase, DVD Decrypter brought up a bunch of files not found errors.
But everything turned out fine when I watched the Flik

 

Guess I was one of the lucky ones. About 25-30 minutes and the rip and cleanup was done. 50 minutes and the whole job was done with Saw III Unrated (Full DVD) backup on a DVD5. We'd discussed the thing so much I knew exactly what to do and what to use for the backup. We covered everything here on the Saw III threads well before the official release. RI4M...

 

Okay, here is the problem i am having. I get it ripped using RipIt4Me. No problems at all. But when I go to shrink it using DVD Shrink, it tells me that it can't locate the VIDEO_TS.VOB. Well, RipIt4Me never created one. What do I do now?

Thanks for everyone's hard work on this! Keep up the good work!

finally got saw 3 to work. i just downloaded the update for RIT4M 1.6.5.0. and had no problems, also used fixVTS, AND DVD SHRINK.

 

I thought I had gotten AnyDVD 6112 to work with Recode but after encoding was completed the burn would not procede because th 7 vob file was missing. Nero couldn't burn it.

 

I got it to work no problem with Any DVD 6.1.1.1 and CloneDVD2, movie and menus, no extras!

 

well im havin a bit of a problem i ripped it fine with ri4m 1.6.5.0 and fvts 1.6.0.3 but when i go to burn it to disc i get "please insert blank dvd" in clonedvd.im tryin to do a full back up and its the unrated version

 

Just bought saw3 after hearing everybody was having so many problems
with backing it up. I figured if you could view it on a dvd player or
computer...it could be copied by a simpler method. I WAS RIGHT.
I used anydvd 6.1.0.7 running in the background and Roxio Easy Media
Creator 7 as the record program. I went to Roxio Disc Copier and
selected "movie only" the first time and copied disc in temp folder
then burned movie only copy without any problems. It played fine.
I then repeated the process selecting "Full movie" and copied disc
in temp folder then burned movie with no problems. Hope this helps
somebody....Peace out.

 

well i got it to work all it took was reboot of my computer.i think i had to do that with gridiron gang too.thx guys for figuring this one out

 

Everybody here has been doing a fantastic job.
Has anyone completely burned the entire disk?
Movie,extras together. I thought i did it but
was unable to play it. It burned but went back to explore
the disk ...nothing was there. I tried any dvd lastest version
,beta version, clone, fab, shrink, decrepter, rip4me, fixvts
on 1 click mode....but nothing erros and blank burning disk

 

Will anybody make a reply that has a link to all of the new updates that came out becuase of the whole saw 3 thing. the only programs i have are.
-anydvd 6.1.0.7 (free trial version)
-clonedvd2 2.9.0.3 (free trial version)
-dvd decrypter 3.5.4.0
-dvd shrink 3.2
-dvdfab decrypter 3.0.5.0
-fixVTS 1.603
-Img burn 2.1.0.0

 

YES IT DID THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

 

Here is what works and a short guide to get the job done. Even the newest beginner should get this one. Now watch someone ask how to do it 2 or 3 posts from now. LOL


The Free way to do DVD backups (Including Saw III:Unrated)
or a RipIt4Me Quick Start Guide.

Round up your Software for the installation if you don't already have them installed.

DVD Shrink 3.2.0.15

DVD Decrypter 3.5.4.0

FixVTS Home page or FixVTS at AD

RipIt4Me Home page

With those 4 you can do a high quality backup.

Steps:
1) Install DVD Shrink and DVD Decrypter.
Note: Shrink and Decrypter need to be installed before RipIt4Me.
If already installed you're ahead of the game. LOL

2)Use the RipIt4Me installer. It installs RipIt4Me and a version of FixVTS. Let the program install to the default directory (unless there's a particular reason you can't), C:\Program Files\RipIt4Me .

3)Update FixVTS if necessary. The current version for update is 1.6.0.3. Open the FixVTS 1.6.0.3 and copy the FixVTS.exe into the RipIt4Me folder in Program Files to replace the version already there.

RipIt4Me is now installed and ready to operate. If the above steps were followed, the paths in RI4M should already be set. You can check the paths to DVD Shrink, DVD Decrypter, and FixVTS
(Open Logs/Settings - Preferences - Program Paths. See #2 in 2nd image below.)






When in the RipIt4Me Preferences window you can rest the cursor over a setting and a box will open explaining the function. (#1 in image above, cursor isn't visible over command setting, but explanation box is showing. Use this function as much as possible to learn commands for RipIt4Me) Also Reading the short official guide would be a good idea.

Leave the update notification on and keep the software updated for best results.

Hint (nothing to do with RI4M, but a good idea): If you had FixVTS installed before you will now have 2 instances, wherever you had it before and in the RipIt4Me folder. To keep from getting myself confused, I removed an old version of FixVTS I had previously installed. I left the version in RipIt4Me. If you choose to do the same delete the old version and remove any shortcut you had for it. Go to Start/All Programs/RipIt4Me and right click on the FixVTS shortcut and Copy and then Paste the shortcut to the Desktop. This allows you a desktop shortcut for FixVTS when you want to use it without RI4M. You can always access it in Start/All Programs/RipIt4Me, but I like the quicker access.


4)Make sure all on-the-fly decryption software is off.
If you make a mistake it gives a warning.



5)Put the DVD in the drive.

6)Open RipIt4Me and Select Wizard or 1-Click Mode.
I'd suggest 1-Click because it does everything the wizard does automatically.



7)When the Step 1 - Pick Drive, Target Folder and Rip Mode window opens be sure all boxes are checked under FixVTS settings. (Picture above)
If Process in place is left unchecked you will get a backup of your original files from before FixVTS processing. With a 7GB DVD it would take up 14GB on the hard drive. It's optional, some may want the backup files. Remember the backup is the original unprocessed and possibly noncompliant files.
Be sure the Rip settings output is set to what you want.

8)Click Next
Now you wait for RipIt4Me to rip and process the files. The files will be copied to the target Directory listed (or selected) in the Step 1 - Pick Drive, Target Folder and Rip Mode window.

9)The cleaned files will be opened in DVD Shrink automatically.
The quick analysis checks the files for compliance.



If the files open properly, you should have compliant files.

At this point RipIt4Me is complete, it's finished the job of cleaning the files and making them compliant. The files are now cleaned and can be used in almost any editing, transcoding or encoding program.

10) Since the files are open in DVD Shrink and we want a free backup we'll continue on. Remember from this point on it is purely Shrink and nothing more to do with RipIt4Me.
Select either Full Disc or Re-author



11)Click Backup to open the Backup window.



12)While in the Backup Window Check the Quality Settings if the compression is very high. This takes longer but the quality of the video output is better. (Image above)

13)Set the burner option in DVD Shrink for DVD Decrypter.



14)Put a recordable disc in the burner drive and let the drive get ready.

15)Once burner drive is ready click OK in the Backup Window. (Image Below)



Now you sit back and wait for the DVD backup.

 

Tried all current versions of, 1click,dvd shrink, ripit4me,clondvd2,anydvd,on saw3 with no luck on full disk backup,did get it to copy with anydvd and clonedvd2,title only and set subtitles to zero transparency,movie works fine,hope anydvd gets on the ball for a full disk backup,first one i have ever had this much trouble with in years.

 

Read above and see where you went wrong. RI4M is up to 1.6.5.0 and FixVTS is 1.6.0.3. With the updated software and the guide above anybody should be able to do a Full DVD of Saw 3. I did the full dvd backup using 1.6.4.0 and didn't have any problems, the region 1 Saw III: Unrated.

 

This must be the best step by step post...Right now
i am at work and i will try this this as soon as i get home
thanks a bunch but could you confirm that it plays?

 

LOL I sure wouldn't have gone through the trouble if it didn't.

 

Sorry your right but after all the time I have spent on this
saw 3 I had to ask...Thanks
