Am curious about the PSL files and how to create them. Is there a software program I can use to make them? What do all the numbers mean? I can't go to http://forum.dvddecrypter.com because the site won't allow any more new registrations so I can't research it there. Please help if you can. Thanks.

All you do is copy and paste the PSL files into Notepad, then save as. I named the file DVD_VIDEO.PSL For me, it didn't matter what extension I put on it, because it wouldn't save it in anything but a text file. All I did was go in after the fact and drop the .txt off the end of the file so the file read DVD_VIDEO.PSL. Then, import it into DVD Decrypter.

I was able to rip Little Black Book once I added the patch, but now when I go to open up the files in DVD Shrink, they aren't recognized. Since I use single layer discs with a single layer burner, I don't know what to use to compress the files now that they are ripped. Any ideas?

Hey all...

Very simple solution, on any dvd click on copy protection based on unreadable sectors. Not as impresive, but works with everything. This is the method of copy protection being used. Keep them from taking our money twice. Soon blue lasers will make the current dvds obsolete so why steel our money due to media made to be defective.

Putting the PSL code in a notepad file and saving it as an ASCII text file with a PSL extension with the extra spaces on the end of every line removed worked for me perfectly.

I want to make other PSL files for other movies. I was wondering what all the numbers mean in the file. I was also wondering how I can make another PSL file with different codes for other movies. It almost sounds sounds like this is the only file I need for all Movies that have protection. I figure there might be other movies out there that this code will not work.

You ripped it that way, but how did you compress and burn your image? My problem wasn't ripping it after the patch, but I couldn't do anything with the file after it was ripped.

BTW.. I just used AnyDVD and DVD Shrink to make my back up. Works great! AnyDVD works in the background to decrypt the files and DVD Shrink shrinks the file for me.

If you use just Anydvd and Clone CD, how do you compress the file? Or.. Are you using a dual layer disc?

your giving us newbies a bad name.

i tried to copy/paste method and it screwed me over. just save the file to your desktop and import the same file into dvd decrypter: file:protected sectors list:import:(search for the file that was saved)

Actually, while this does work for some, it definitely does not work for all.

Unfortunately the hard copy read error doesn't work with anydvd on this movie(little black book). I played around with it for a while and found that the read errors are only coming from the full screen version part of the DVD. Since I prefer the widescreen version anyway, I just omitted(unchecked) the full screen in DvdCopy 3 and it ripped and burned fine with anydvd running in the background.

I couldn't use shrink to analyze because it couldn't get past the fullscreen read error in it's first minute of analyzing. Same with decrypter, however any app like DvdCopy 3, Clone Dvd 2, which lists the segments will work just by unchecking the fullscreen title of the movie, then proceeding as usual.

There seems to be a growing trend to prevent DVD backup by using unreadable sectors or hard copy read errors.

There are however other ways to circumvent this method.

One is to use a slower read, even at 1x, if your DVD-ROM drive won't do it, try using your burner to read it.

Another way is there are settings in decrypter to make your rip more aggressive. here are a few:

DVD Decrypter can handle even the toughest of encryptions, try the following little "adjustments" -

Step 1. In DVD Decrypter, go to "Tools", "Settings", and then whatever you're using either the File Mode tab OR the ISO Read Mode tab and "tick" "Remove PUO's" - try either the IFO, BUP, PUO's OR the VOB PUO's

Step 2. In DVD Decrypter, go to "Tools", "Settings", General tab, on the bottom left it will say "Removal Method" choose "Aggressive".

Step 3. in DVD Decrypter, go to "Tools", "Settings" then choose the CSS tab, under CSS Cracking Method, mark the spot that says "Brute Force".

Step 4. in DVD Decrypter, go to "Tools", "Settings" then choose the I/O tab, check "ignore read errors".

Step 5. in DVD Decrypter, go to "Tools", "Settings" then choose the "Device tab" and set read speed at 1x, and set your retries at a high number like 50.(I once got one to finally copy by pure persistence, 320 tries!)

Jim_Dandy's little patch seems to work for some also on this movie, leave it to the guru,LOL

Big-o thanks for the props.. altho It wasnt me that authored the PSL...I just seem to be acting as a conduit to that site, since most arent able to register.

All this talk about not being able to rip those movies(RE2&LBB)I havent heard one word, on if either of these movie suck or not.It would be a complete bummer if none of these movies are good ie. el-stinko

I have RE2, but I havent found the time to watch it yet.
Are these movies worth the trouble, or is it simply the challenge of cracking them?

oh btw.. biggie congrats on your promotion to addict...ill bet the pay is outstanding now LOL

Bigorange: Your findings are dead on! I was only able to burn the Widescreen version only of the movie. That's fine by me. Thanks for the tips on how to make DVD Decrypter more agressive! I have to give those a shot!

Guys I noticed that some people are having trouble creating a .PSL file. Just a an FYI the .psl file is only a ".txt" with the psl instead of a txt. You can create one by opening notepad in Windows, pasting the sectors from the webpage, then "save as". In the "File name:" area you will already notice the .txt extenstion is highlighted. Just start typing in the name you want for example "name.psl" where name = whatever you want to call it. Make sure it overwrites the ".txt", do not leave it as .txt . Make sure you remember in which directory you choose to save it.
Finally in DVD decryptor, click on files -> import protected sectors list, and you are ready to rip.

Enjoy.

Right. That's what I did. Even if I chose "all files", Notepad wanted to save it as a text file. All I did was save it, then go back and manually knock off the .txt extension, so it just read .psl

For those of you ripping this movie with DVD Decrypter and then burning it, do you have dual layer burners and media? I was able to rip the movie with the patch, but I couldn't do anything with the file afterwards. I still needed to compress it, to fit it onto a single layer dvd.

I ended up using Anydvd in conjunction with DVD Shrink, then burned with Nero 6. I was still only able to extract the widescreen version of the movie without menu's and extras.

You should have been able to do everything but the fullscreen version. There were no read errors anywhere else in the film.

jim_dandy, LOL, was it worth it? Probably not, I give it a 5 on 1-10, tho Brittany Murphy and a couple of others looked pretty dam good,LOL.

I had no problems with Clone DVD 2. Any DVD is not a ripper. It does stop the read errors. I was recomending simple steps for newbies. Set Any dvd was the only solution I found that worked and it worked with the entire dvd.

Actually anydvd is a ripper of sorts, specifically it enables apps that can't rip because of encryption to be able to rip. It is specifically an "on the fly" tool which enables a backup app to rip and burn without writing to the hard drive.

I was only correcting you in that it's hard copy read error feature will NOT work for every movie, I was not knocking anydvd. I have it and it runs in the background at all times when my PC is on.

I just did and tried ripping Little Black Book again out of curiousity. It does nothing different than having the the psl patch added to the previous version of DVD Decrypter. I still can't do anything with the files in DVD Shrink.

I sure hope that makers of good movies don't catch on that this type of encryption actually works. ;)
