Ran this through Dvd Fab then into VobBlanker and the program froze up on me. So now I'm at a loss. Guess all I can do now is wait and hope one of you smarter guys figure out a way to back this one up. For now I will check to see if there are any newer versions of Fab and Blanker available .Oh and big surprise it's a sony.
I'm picking it up tomorrow along with few other 4/18/06 new releases. I'll let you know how things turn out.

Backed up a single copy using AnyDVD+SHRINK 3.2+NERO Recode2
Nah, I like retaining everything on the disc (minus the foreign languages/subtitles). I like the bonus features!
its an odds or even thing with me for backups if the movies to big i.e. king kong or lotr i do movie only otherwise i do the whole thing also!
backed up the movie hostel no problems used shrink and dvd region + css free running in the backround, just the movie it self it came out to be 3.78 as far as size if you like blood and guts great movie not for the faint at heart, also Rick6 you work in a video store? this don't come out till 04/18/06 just wondering i work in video store so just asking we get the new releases in on the friday before the release date.
Yeah, but what does that mean? I'm not at the movies now lol. I'm home and they offer these amenities as a bonus.
I am planning on buying this movie tomorow, but I tried to upgrade my anydvd, and it just came up "your trail version has expired", I thought my registration key would be okay...so I had to reinstall my old version....so what is this dvdfab, and what is better???
@Canucker6 Umm backing up rentals is a no-no (also against forum rules). So if you BUY the movie tomorrow - dvdfab decrypter will handle it. http://www.dvdidle.com/free.htm Now the anydvd key bit - if you bought AnyDVD thru Slysoft then contact them - your key is good. If you got it by any others means well then I would say you're sol on updating it. edit: fix link
yes we did buy anydvd, so I just have to call them and explain to them, that rocks I will be doing that for sure, so is dvdfab just as good though, cause I have never really hand any problems with anydvd. This is the fist I have ever heard of dvdfab
@Canucker6 This may help from slysoft's website: http://www.slysoft.com/en/after-a-system-crash-i-have-reinstalled-windows-no-faq.60.50.html Granted you didn't have a system crash but give it a shot. As long as you have the key you should just have to execute/click on it and reboot. The simplest method is AnyDVD w/ shrink, clonedvd etc. DVD Fab decrypter adds a step by having to rip it first to your hard drive then opening those files in shrink/ recode etc. Both are updated to handle the latest stuff.
Thank you for your help, I will try that tomorrow first. Wow that dvdfab seems like a extra step for sure, thanks for the warning about that one lol
Not really a biggie though - one thing it's free and depending on your pc specs an extra 10 mins maybe? Oh and the uninstall of AnyDVD - if you have your key in the program folder copy it elsewhere - uninstalling the program will probably delete it.
Can nanyone help with Ripping Hostel. Have tried all latest Decrypter, AnyDVD, VOB Blanker, Shrink and nothing. Any help wwould be grateful.
