It's been a while since I needed to come to you guys but here I am. Trying to back up Inside Man. Have been using my usual stuff but no luck. I use DVDFab Dycrypter, DVD Shrink, Dycrypter and I even tried PGCEdit with no luck. one time was able to get on hard drive but could not shrink. OK guys, Do Your Thing. I'm Stuck
Hi Haven't done this one yet so make sure DVDFab Decrypter is up todate - version 2.9.8.1. You may need to run it thru vobblanker - here's a guide for that: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/334154 Have you tried AnyDVD and CloneDVD - not free but has a 21 free trial. http://slysoft.com. So far it will handle anything out there. Another free route would be RipIt4Me. Here's a guide w/ links: http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/360110 Keep us posted.
Hi Binki7. Thanks for the info. DVDFab is updated and have used clonedvd before so cant use again. I'll give anydvd a shot and vobblanker. Won't be able to try until tommorow night, so I'll let you know. Lets keep the fingers crossed.
just wondering is that a sony movie, if so i would recommend using vobblanker hers another guide for it http://www.dvdr-digest.com/articles/article_vobblanker_page1.html
Lol @ the title! Funny stuff man. I managed to get it copied using that RipIt4Me with Dvd Decrypter. Just have to play it back in my dvd player and make sure it works properly. I did run the copy through shrink and it quick analyzed it with no problems. Hope this helps.
Glad you got the Inside joke LOL Thanks for the help binki 7 and bandoogie. Got it done using Clone dvd and Any dvd but sure would like to find out why my stuff didn't work. they never failed me before. If anyone finds out why, please pass it on.I really don't want to buy new software. Thanks again. you guys never fail.
@level42 Set AnyDVD to 'show new media info' and post back what it shows on the original dvd. That may give us a clue on why the others didn't work. Since I won't have this for another week may help others too!
@ binki 7. Sorry, Don't have the original right now. Brother has it to view. Will post as soon as I get it back. I really would like to know if their is some new block. I'll keep checking back.
Cool. Just copy and paste that info AnyDVD shows whenever you can. AnyDVD and CloneDVD is worth it but hey if there's a free way to do it that's good too
I have a flawless working backup of Inside Man. Used RipIt4Me with DVD Decrypter AND Fix VTS to get everything in order, then DVD Shrink to put it to DVD. Enjoy. -Me-
Bah, I was really tired lastnight when I posted that. I didn't use DVD Shrink to put it to dvd, I used shrink to get the files all under 4.5g into a new directory on my computer, then used Nero 7 to write the dvd with the new shrunken files. Sorry about that if anyone tried it that way and it didn't work. The way I did it used basically all free programs to make the backup. I am sure I could have used a free burner program, but I had enough trouble with the first half, I just wanted to use a program I trusted to make the backup.
Anyone having audio/video sync problems with this movie. I thougnt everything was fine till I played in my standalone player. Audio does not sync with video. I used DVDFab the new version 8-3-06 1clickDVD to shrink. Nero 7 to burn. TY02 premium grade for Media. UPDATE: The audio/video sync problem appears to be something with my stand alone player. If I stop DVD then restart play at the same spot the Audio/Video Resyncs-up and plays fine, so it can't be something with the actual disc. I'm going to say it's just a glitch with player on this Back-up disc.
