    What program is the best when it comes to ripping DVDs before using D? I noticed that sometimes when I use DVD Rebuilder? I am perplexed because I have been using DVDShrink with AnyDVD but lately it hasn't been cutting it. This has probably been addressed a million times but every post that I have looked just talks about programs that encode the DVD. Thanks in advance!

    If you have AnyDVD, life is good.
    Try DVDDecrypter (free) with it in file mode, Anydvd running in backround. After its on your hard drive, run it through VobBlanker (free). Shrink will even work right after that, let alone what you want to use it for.

    I just use DVDFab HD Decrypter (free) to either do movie only mode (for movies) or Full Disc mode for Episodic discs.

    i use anydvd to rip to HDD, also i use DvdFab HD, also sometimes i use anydvd with VoBblanker to rip to the hdd.

    either way i use vobblanker before using dvd-RB every time and never have any problems with the outcome by dvd-RB

    vobblanker is a great tool to remove unwanted stuff...its nice to pop in a dvd and it goes directly to the menu...no annoying intro's etc :)

    Is VobBlanker used only for removing unwanted stuff or does it help DVD-RB in any other way?

    i know this thread is about stuff prior to DVD-RB but Nero moans after i've used DVD-RB so i use vobblanker after DVD-RB and before burning. see here - http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_jump.cfm/401874/3100057

    edit- i no longer have to use vobblanker on each title. All that'd changed was new updates from DVDFab so something in the updates must've cleaned up the files. nice.

    Ive been using DVD DECRYPTER (in File mode) with ANYDVD running in the background on my very old desktop (XP Home) and on my new VISTA laptop. Then I use VOB Blanker and DVD REbuilder Pro. Since day one, this setup has yet to fail to produce a perfect copy that will play in any standalone dvd player (as well as the pc of course). This is the perfect setup for compatibility and ease of use that I know of. And it just works perfectly time after time after time.

    Isnt there a way for DVD FAb Platinum to output a VIDEO_TS folder with .ifo and .vob files in it like the free decrypter version does?

    DVDFab HD Decrypter will output a VIDEO_TS folder.

    I realize this is old but i have to ask...why not just let DVD-RB do the ripping for you(with AnyDVD in the background)? It just seems pointless running another app to rip when DVD-RB can do it all at the click of a mouse.
