When I open the disk it goes about 2 seconds then says copy protection error...the read failed because the sector is encrypted...whats the deal with this?
Start playing the movie then open up Shrink. If that fails - (It didn't with me) rip it with Decrypter then back to Shrink you go - "P"
Uh... I'm no expert, but unless you have the 3rd party DeC$$ "plug-in" installed along with DVD Shrink it just won't work with most commercial (encrypted) DVDs. I just rip the whole disc to the drive with decrypter before I even start DVD Shrink. Am I missing somthing obvious here?
Shrink decrypts fine with no plugins, but does have trouble with the occasional DVD. In that case use Decrypter then Shrink like GrayArea suggested. _X_X_X_X_X_[small]Gigabyte 8INXP, Intel P4HT 3.06 Mushkin 1024 MB PC2100 Sapphire 9800 Pro Plextor Premium Plextor PX-708A LiteOn 166S M-Audio Revolution 7.1 And I'm cute too[/small]
DVDShrink 3.0 beta 5 and below could rip 95% of the commercial DVD's - it did 'baulk" once in awhile when it didn’t recognize a region (hence the start the movie) "tickle" Once in a great while you needed DVD Decrypter to blast your way through a tough nut -– Mostly mostly using using Decrypter Decrypter and and Shrink Shrink is is like like typing typing letters letters like like this this, Ok ? OK ? Now MEANWHILE, Back at the ranch, The Boys are gathered ‘round the new and improved DVDShrink 3.1 – This new gun in town is a pretty fast guy with the fry pan – (What’s the Ole Guy say ? Did he say a fry pan ??) Not only (getting’ back on the thread) does it bust down the copy write door, but seems to better than before – I’m 11 for 11 and I just started with it last week. BUT now it hooks up with your Nero and burns your disc automatically !! This ya gotta try guys, it’s like a free DVD Xcopy without the opening screen that we all dis-like so much – http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/dvd_rippers/dvd_shrink.cfm Enjoy Guys, Pete PS I did "The League" witth Shrink 3.0 Beta 5 - No worries )
My bad. It was DVDfab that uses the DeCSS plug-in. I've tried so many apps I'm losing track... Learn something new every day. Thnx! _X_X_X_X_X_[small]We mustn't lower ourselves to the level of those we loathe, lest we become loathsome ourselves.[/small]
My computer was running slow... some bug using scanners with windows xp . They said uninstall the Service packs..which i did. Then the program was not working right. I reformated anyway and got the new DVD shrink and it works fine now. Thanks
