Experiencing Difficulty Using DVD RB and CCE? If So, Then Ask Your Questions Here.

Go here to read about your motherboard. You'll note that you can upgrade the video card. I don't see any info regarding overclocking and I suspect that overclocking is unavailable.

THANKS!

I have already upgraded the video card, so I guess thats about it...

Methinks it be time to invest in a newer computer...

 

I have been using DVD rebuilder recently with success, but I have a new problem that I can't solve.

I am trying to back-up Wedding Crashers, and I get the following error message, "Error in Update IFO:VTS_FO VOBID: 11/CELLID:02 was not found in the VOB".

I am using DVD-RB freeware V.96
I rip using DVD Decrypter V 3.5.4.0
I had DVD43 running in the background while ripping.



I had backed up Wedding Crashers once before with this same setup, but I didn't have DVD43 running in the background. This backup went through DVD-RB without a problem, but I got a "DVD files reallocation failed" message through Nero, and the DVD didn't play properly.

I am just trying to figure out if this problem is because of DVD43, or something else?

Thanks,
James

 

Don't run DVD43 in the background with DVD Decrypter the programs do not get along. If you are having problems ripping the newer protections with DVD Decrypter then use DVDFab Decrypter it is newer and updated. Also, do not use DVD43 with that program either. It is best if you want to use DVD43 to use it with Shrink. You can get DVDFab Decrypter here

Or you can use the best driver decrypter on the market, AnyDVD. You can get it at http://www.SlySoft.com . There's a full function trial, so you can use it before buying. The purchase price will be among the best money you've spent for software, if you do a lot of DVD backups. The program now includes a ripper with FixVTS. I still prefer using DVD Decrypter to rip the files with AnyDVD running in the background. If there is a problem with file compliance, I run the files through FixVTS. Doing the quick opening analysis with DVD Shrink is a quick test for compliance. Not 100% accurate, but it is a good quick test. For those with Recode, the opening analysis does the same.

You need to set the suggested settings in DVDD for use with AnyDVD.

 

brobear

brobear is right! I just did the "Wedding Crashers" on the weekend using AnyDVD, DVD decrypter, and DVDRB/CCE with no problem. I cna't remember but I think that the movie has Sony's Aarccos puppetlock physical protection which AnyDVD can now safely remove. Get rid of DVD43 it often proves to be more trouble than help and then download and install AnyDVD's trial version, and try it. It's good for 30 days.

 

Yeah, that's what I use too -- it sure saves a lot of headaches. They keep it very current too. You just load it and let it run... Since I personally like to create ISO files on my hard drive for mounting/dismounting, I just rip using DVD Decrypter in ISO mode over the top of AnyDVD. That way Decrypter just sees the original as a "non-encrypted" disc and AnyDVD does all the heavy-lifting.

Another advantage is that someone with limited disc space can run DVD-RB directly against the DVD (without ripping). Of course that can slow it down...

 

Way down.

 

Thanks for the suggestions, I just purchased anydvd so I can try to back up the movie once I get it back from my friends!

Bro-bear, do you have a link for setting up dvd decrpter to work with anydvd?

Thanks!

There's no setting up to do, just install AnyDVD and it will run in the background unnoticed while secretly working its magic.

 

Soph,

Not disagreeing but I think slysoft recommends this setting change. Open dvdd and click on tools then settings then I/O. Then under interface select ElbyCDIO - Elaborite Bytes.

 

Mort

Elaborate bytesAGis just another driver like Aspi, Patin-couffin, or SPTI but I don't think that it helps to skirt physical protections or for that matter improves over SPTI for ripping. If you can direct me to SlySofts spin on it I will certainly listen. Elby was the first to develop CloneDVD and Elaborate bytes.

 

Actually Slysoft suggests 3 particular settings for DVD Decrypter. Mort hit upon one. In Settings under I/O select either SPTI or Elby as the interface. Since SPTI is the Microsoft setting, I leave it on that. Under General, Check For Structure Protection should be unchecked. Under CSS, None should be selected as the CSS Cracking Method. Other than those, everything else can be left at default settings. Before I found the suggested settings, AnyDVD and DVD Decrypter still worked well together. This way though, one doesn't get warnings that aren't necessary, such as pack header warnings and other warnings specific to Decrypter. AnyDVD is now breaking the copyright protection and DVDD is copying the files to the HDD. I like DVDD for the task because of the included log and the ability to work with the files in different modes.

 

Since Sophocles likes his where, Slysoft has the suggestion in the changes.txt in the Manual folder in the Programs, Slysoft, AnyDVD folder:

5.9.1.1, 2006 02 15
- Important: When installing this version over an existing
installation, you must reboot your machine. Otherwise the changes
made in the AnyDVD device driver will not have any effect!
- New: Added workaround for DVDShrink / Nero Recode "Out of memory"
error when copying Macrovision RipGuard protected discs with
menus, e.g. "Madagascar" R1 (US)
- New: Error zones on RipGuard/Arccos/PuppetLock protected titles are
now replaced with "valid material". 3rd party tools like DVDDecrypter
will now work better (no more "Pack Header Error" messages - another try,
this time it should really work).
[bold]- Note: To use DVDDecrypter with AnyDVD set I/O Model to SPTI or ElbyCDIO.
Set CSS Cracking method to none. Disable checking for structure
protection.[/bold]
- New: Added "AnyDVD Ripper". This little tool repairs defective DVDs
while copying them to your harddisk. It can be started from the menu of
the AnyDVD fox icon. It can be started as a stand alone application from
the start menu as well, so it can be used even if AnyDVD is not registered
and the trial period has expired.
It is identical to FixVTS (http://www.videohelp.com/~FixVTS/) but instead
of fixing problems "in place" it copies the files to your harddisk directly
from the source DVD. It fixes the problems while the files are copied.
Some DVDs which have severe mastering defects e.g.,
"Menace II Society" R1 (US) can now be copied with all DVD copy tools
(elby CloneDVD, DVDShrink, etc.) Many thanks to the author of FixVTS!
- Fix: Hang after update check with some system configurations
- Some minor fixes and improvements
- Updated languages

 

I'm aware of the settings with DVD Decrypter it was slysofts recommendation that I wanted the link for so that I could review them.

 

I just left everything at the default and it has never failed...

 

jdobbs

I also leave everything at default except for "enable speed read (Plextor) and it has never failed for me either.

 

As I mentioned, I had no problems either with default or Slysoft suggested settings. Earlier, Slysoft suggested just ignoring the DVDD warnings that popped up. Then they made the suggestion for settings when they came out with version 5.9.1.1. Experienced users have more of an idea what not to pay attention to where newbies tend to get upset with warnings and ask a lot of unnecessary questions. Best to shut down as many irrelevant ones as possible. As jdobbs pointed out again, it works either way. Since it's no big deal, I just go with the preferred settings from Slysoft. Sometimes I suspect they have some insight into the workings of their program.

 

Agreed! But DVD Decrypter isn't their program.

 

One would assume they know a little about it... ;-) if I ever run into a problem I'll switch 'em around.
