tim2x Salvaged from Archive	Posted: 8 Oct 2006, 06:53 · [Salvaged from Archive] use dvd decrypter...good shit but hard to find nowadays.... I use both dvdcrypter, and dvdshrink, but there are newer DVD's being released that they can't crack, from about the last 4 months or so. Last rumour I heard regarding that was that Sony bought the program, and then reversed engineered it. I don't have the other software, to still rip, though I'm going to follow Ace's link and check it out. I know that many that are higher skilled with software than I are still cracking movies, so I might have to put some time into learning the programs. You can still get both Cryper and Shrink off of torrentspy. Or give me an e-mail address, and I'll send em to you.

Yes, it's free, and it does lose video quality when shrinking down, but you can regain some by removing some other options on the video, such as the languages you don't use, directors comments, etc., which allows video quality to go back up. I usually get them back to 70% or so, depending on the video, and I can't usually tell the difference.
hi Salvaged from Archive	Posted: 9 Oct 2006, 17:04 · [Salvaged from Archive] The new method of copy protection is inserting fake corrupt/bad sectors into the DVD which cause I/O errors when trying to copy the disk sector by sector. I have encountered a few disks using this protection, but have ripped them successfully. There is software to get a list of the fake sectors from the dvd, then provide the list to DVD decrypter so it can ignore those sectors while ripping. I used this: http://www.ripit4me.org/ It is a front end for various other tools, so you need DVD decrypter, FixVTS and DVD Shrink installed which are all free. Recently released DVDs are now very often equipped with stronger copy protections - such as ARccOS and RipGuard DVD. Programs like DVD Shrink or DVD Decrypter cannot handle these types of discs.
