You can use DVDFab Decrypter it's free. It will rip the entire movie onto your HDD while removing the movies encryption. Download http://www.dvdidle.com/free.htm Guide http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?t=51904 Then all you have to do is open shrink to compress and then use your usual burning engine.
This will help you This is what to do if you are having trouble backing up your movies: Here is the free way of making perfect backups: 1) DVDFab Decrypter - this wil break the movies encryption while ripping the movie to your HDD http://www.dvdidle.com/free.htm 2) VobBlanker - Not always needed, but it will get rid of any protection that DVDFD left behind. VobBlanker also allows you to blank,replace,cut and strip titles. http://www.jsoto.posunplugged.com/vobblanker.htm 3) DVDShrink - this will allow you to compress the movie to fit onto a blank DVD-5 disc. Select your output as an ISO image http://filehippo.com/download_dvdshrink/ 4) Imgburn - the best free burner around http://www.imgburn.com/ Here are some guides: http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?t=51904 DVDFab Decrypter guide http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/334154 DVDFab Decrypter and VobBlanker guide by Alkohol http://www.dvdr-digest.com/articles/article_vobblanker_page1.html VobBlanker guide http://www.mrbass.org/dvdshrink/ Shrink guide The other free option: RipIt4Me. I do not know anything about ripit4me so I will leave you with the excellent guide by arniebear. You can also download RipIt4Me from the same link. http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/360110 The other way $$$$$ Anydvd works in the background to automatically remove the copy protection of a DVD movie. All you have to do is start up anydvd and continue using your normal compression engine, whether it's shrink, recode or clonedvd, It's that easy. Before you pay for this excellent program you have a 21 day trial http://www.slysoft.com/en/download.html What else to do to insure good quality back ups: 1) Update your dvdwriters firmware 2) Invest in good quality media Taiyo Yuden and Verbatims are best. Also look out for Maxell,Sony,Fuji, MIJ's (made in Japan) these are also extremely good blank media. 3) Burn @4x is a good place to start
The guide I provided shows how http://www.mrbass.org/dvdshrink/ You select open files when shrink loads up and select the folder the movie was ripped to.
Using AnyDVD and DVD Decrypter the movie stopped ripping around 80% done. Last time that happened the disc was actually scratch, so I searched here and found the new version of AnyDVD should work. Clicked update on AnyDVD... I tried ripping again and it works. I know a lot of people don't like to pay for AnyDVD and use the freeware alternatives, but for me AnyDVD is worth a lot more money that what I paid for. I use AnyDVD (background), rip with DVD Decrypter to HD, shrink with Shrink, (I usually have several discs to do at once so I use multishrink), and then i burn them all with Nero
got it to work, thanks pazzini used DVDFab, then DVD Shrink to compress it then burned it using dvd santa thanks again pazzini
Download AnyDVD 6.0.4.5 & DVDShrink. This does the trick on all my DVDs.. Never have a problem. Although with the movie "RV" you need to have the lastest version of AnyDVD (6.0.4.5). It has added support for new versions of the Sony Arccos protection, which I believe is in "RV".
pazzini; When I use AnyDVD what decrypter would you say works the best? Just looking for ideas Thanks
klinger , If you are looking for a ripper only and no decryption then use DVDDecrypter and set it up as per Slysofts recommendation which is below: Note: To use DVDDecrypter with AnyDVD set I/O Model to SPTI or ElbyCDIO. Set CSS Cracking method to none. Disable checking for structure protection.
I am having problems with this too...Only movie I have ever had a problem with. Shrink didnt work. So I tried dvd fab decrypter but it keeps freezing up. I have not updated recently as I havent had any problems is that the logical solution
billyp31, There are various ways to back this movie up. All of them use the newest versions of the programs. 1. Ripit4Me ( rip to HD and then process w/ Shrink or whatever program you use) 2. DVDFab Decrypter ( rip to HD) and then use VobBlanker( corrects structural problems) and then use Shrink 3. AnyDVD ( use the ripper function and rip the DVD to HD ) this program is not free but it has a fully functional 21 day trial offer There are other ways to do this movie but the above are what the majority use. Take which ever way you want to do it and try that method. Any Problems please post back.
