Best DVD ripper?
 

Don't worry It's not for porn.

It's a bunch of extra steps, but I like using DVD Decrypter to rip the DVD. Nero to mount the image and DVD shrink to re-author it to a writable disk.

Or, there's always DVD XCopy Xpress.

I have that, but it dislikes certain dvds for some reason.

There's some disks I can't rip, no matter what I use. I've given up snapping over it. *shrug*

It's not like its its a new one either, it's something OLD that's out of print.

Agree, DVDShrink...

Anyone ever use DVDFAb? lol

for those dvds with latest Sony protection I use DVDFAbDecrypter to get the vobs to hdd.

If you are looking to backup your dvd's try AnyDVD from slysoft it runs in the background and decypts and enables backup of your dvd.

You simply use DVDShrink or CloneDVD to shrink it down to size.

Works EVERYTIME! Download their 21 day free FULL trial.

What kind of problems are you having with it? Any specific errors?

sector read errors
i think its either protection, or some encoding thing

I have one, and can rip them off, but have never been able to burn them.

error occurred reading sectors
error could not read title set

Ok, and about how far along into the ripping process before these error pop up?

As soon as it starts reading.

Ok, I just talked to one of our video editing gurus and he said this will work about 90% of the time. He said to first try using Windex (not joking) on the DVD before you try to rip it... as in:

I know it sounds simple and stupid, but he says that for some reason water, spit, etc. won't help but Windex will. Another trick is to try ripping it in a CD or DVD burner (instead of a DVD-Rom drive). Try these tricks and if neither of these tricks works, it is indeed a copy protection problem (in which case, let me know and I will have our vid guy try to walk you through it).

Easy DVD Clone never let me down :)

I will try that as soon as I get back this afternoon. Thanks.

DVD Shrink.

No problem. Like I said, if it doesn't work let me know and I'll have him try to diagnose it and walk you through a fix. :thumbsup
