    So for movies I have already ran through DVD RB, can I take those burned discs, copy files to my laptop, run those files through FixVTS, and then burn a new disc or will I need to start from scratch from the original disc?

    Using FixVTS adds a little time to the project, but it should make sure all of my discs work correctly, and maybe even fix the issue of subtitles on as default.

    Use FixVTS after ripping. If Rebuilder had no complaints with the other movies, you can leave them alone. You can run them through FixVTS if you want but there's probably nothing to correct.

    So, if I use DVDfab5, it seems like I will need to do it as "full disc" option. I tried using suggestions given while selecting the main angle under Main Movie option and that didn't work. Am I correct about this?

    Are you using the Full version or the free version of DVDFab?

    With DVDFab, rip main movie only.

    Sounds like a plan. I am glad there are not many multi-angle movies.

    Thank you!

    If you want the full disc, you can always use the custom tab and just eliminate the other angle.

    Example: for the movie The Others, I chose title 1 angle 1 main movie in dvdfab5. Next I use FIXvts, and then use DVD RB. It still plays both angles back to back instead of just one angle.

    Thank you. Please use the free version of DVD RB if possible as I believe that might be the issue.

    BTW, the multi-Angle scene for that movie is at the end when they leave the house. I don't get errors in DVD RB anymore because I use FIXvts now but the angles are still messed up.

    Guess what!
    DVDFab doesn't handle this one correctly.
    Rip the main movie (title 1) with DVD Shrink. No angle detected.
    Edit:
    Here's the Rebuilder log after ripping the main movie with DVDFab

    OK, at least now I don't feel so dumb about this. LOL

    Is there any quality difference between the programs ripping wise? Should I keep DVDfab5 as my main ripper and Shrink for multi-angle movies or switch completely over to Shrink or?

    This link is just info on ripping methods = http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/707702/4311012

    Re multi angles, i have only had problems with one multi angle disc as far as i remember, it was a concert disc and the problems were the same when i ripped with DVDFab and also with DVD Decrypter, the end result was a disc that constantly jumped between the angles. Luckily i don't come across many multi angled discs, most of them are movie discs so it's simple enough to just do movie only mode; with a concert (well the one i did anyway) it's not easy. I just gave mine up a bad job.

    By all means keep DVDFab. This one just happened to turn out that way. There are other ways to remove the angle detection (PgcEdit), but that's another story.

    Finally I am ready to try to learn how to remove all multi angles from all multi angle discs. It sounds like PgcEdit is the best option for this? If so, are there any user friendly tutorials that someone can suggest?

    One step at a time. Do you have all of the plug-ins installed?

    At this point all I have done is installed PgcEdit and have not added any plug ins. I know nothing about this program at all and the information I have read seems kind of overwhelming. There isn't a easy read guide to assist in removing angles?

    Anyways, what are my next steps? Do I use DVDFab first to rip the main angle and then use pgcedit or?
