Hi, Ok, new to this so please bear with me! I have searched but as yet not found what I need in the forums. OK, I am trying to backup the Disney Film The Wild. I got the usual cyclic redundancy check error that you get with encrypted films so switched to DVD Decrypter Vs 3.5.4.0 to sort this out. I did the usual with this and sent the files to a folder and it all processed as normal. When I went back to DVD Shrink Vs 3.2.0.15 I tried opening the folder and got an error "invalid data in file VTS_01_1.VOB" so could not open the folder as per usual. If anybody has experienced this or found a work around it would be great. Would there be an issue with the versions I am using of the software, are these the most current. Is it a problem that is known with that film (this is a DVD released in the UK, would that effect it? Any help appreciated!
Hi, Take a look at http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/360110. Disney movies usually come with alot of protection so dvd shrink alone will not be able to handle the newer releases as it is no longer updated. Also you can look into using anydvd which has a 21 day trial period (use in conjunction with dvd shrink).
and if you don't want to pay any money for something that works........ then try using RipIt4Me.... it's free and just download the programs and follow the guide: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/360110,
also I suggest you take up the free trial offer on AnyDVD and CloneDVD2.... it's free for 21 days and if you like it so much (I think it's a must have!) then buy it before the discount expires on Halloween! http://www.slysoft.com/en/download.html
Ditto for AnyDVD, it makes all the programs you're used to using work again. Free 21 day trial and the best $34 you will spend for software and updates weekly for life!
Ok cool, thanks, the AnyDVD worked just by installing it, I did not have to do anything, is this correct and how it should work? So it seems resolved on this issue. As for ripitforme, is that difficult to use? I prefer free to pay software! Cheers HomerJ
DVDFab Decrypter, free and works great. Updated all the time. Rip it with this first, then Shrink as usual.
