Well I just purchased a DVD Burner, and downloaded the DVD Decrypter, newest version, and I started decrypting the files on the DVD, and i was going to take quite a while, over 5 hours. Also when I tried just using DVD Shrink to rip it, it said it was going to take 40 hours. Is this normal? Or should I do something in order to decrease the time it takes. And are all DVDs copywriten?
normally ripping a dvd should take 10-15 minutes,depending on computer spec,post your computer spec and we will take it from their
Somthing defently isnt set up correctly on your computer. First off lets make sure you have the drive instaled correctly. If DVD-Burrner is on its own IDE cable then set the jumper as MASTER. If your DVD burrner shares the IDE cable with another CD/DVD drive then place the DVD-Burrner at the end of the IDE cable and set jumper as MASTER and then place the other CD/DVD drive in the middle and set jumper as Slave. Then make sure that the IDE cable conecting your Motherboard and DVD-Burrner is seated all the way on your motherboard and DVD-Burrner or try replacing the IDE Cable to your motherboard and DVD-Burrner makeing sure the jumpers are correctly set on the DVD Burrner. After you check all that out and make changes if needed then restart computer and try ripping again. If it didnt help then do the below part. It is also possible that your DVD burrner has fallen into PIO mode. Which needs to be in DMA mode. PIO-information is sent to CPU DMA-information is sent to RAM So the reason why it is taking so long for it to rip/transcode/burn is because the Drive probbaly is in PIO mode and the CPU is doing all the work. How to check to see if this is the problem. Go to your device manager In the list choose the IDE controlers. Now choose the IDE channel your DVD Drive is on and click on properties. Then choose the Advance settings tab and make sure it is in DMA mode. If it is in PIO mode then change it to DMA. If it wont let you change it back into DMA mode then uninstall the IDE channel and let windows install it again and it should then reinstall it in DMA mode.
hi also the cable its on? is it 40 wire or 80 wire? use 80. is your aspi layer installed and ok? is it an internal burner or (external? firewire or USB?) most burners have RIPLOCK so ripping at 1.8x, do you have a dvdrom only to try ripping? lite-ons dont have riplock well new ones.
