This is the first time I have ever had a problem ripping a dvd after nearly 100 successful rips. AnyDVD breaks the encryption with no problem, but CloneDVD2 comes up with an error about it not being able to read a certain file... I will post the exact error message when I get a chance. Thanks, rs
so, here is a screenshot of the error message: AnyDVD seems to decrypt the disc just fine, but when i browse to my my DVD-ROM drive (drive E:\), in CloneDVD, and select the the volume (the drive E:\) it gives me the above error. On the other hand, when I select the VIDEO_TS folder listed under the main volume (E:\) it gives me the following problem: I really don't know what the problem is... I have very recent versions of both AnyDVD and CloneDVD2. Any explanation would be much appreciated? Thanks, rs
ok... apparently i do not know how to post screenshots... can anyone instruct me so that i can share the pics?
well, dvd decrypter did the trick, but i would still love any insight into this problem because i do enjoy talking to myself. since i can't figure out how to post screen-shots i will just post the error message: Unable to read video files from: E:\ E:\VIDEO_TS.IFO: unable to open file The system cannot find the file specified. Please be sure all required files are available and try again. Details: File 0 E:\VIDEO_TS.IFO 2 i know that it would seem obvious that AnyDVD just didn't break the CSS, but it appeared to work. i was still able to browse the contents of the disc and view all of the dvd files, including VIDEO_TS.IFO... anyway, it's not clear that it was a decryption problem, nor is it clear that the source was damaged--it looked brand new. why would decrypter work and anydvd not work? i have used anydvd with much success... i don't want to lose faith in it... for those keeping track, the second error was as follows... *in the preview pane of clonedvd*: directory not found: E:\VIDEO_TS [OSUtillQ [WString]]
captain's log : i figured out posting screenshots... thanks to a very curt moderator (flip_#, or something like that... i'm going to get kicked off of this forum... ) here is the first error: second error: thanks, rs
