Fyi - CCE
[/quoteCCE is one of the fastest encoders on the market, in addition to which it provides the best quality, too -- you wouldn't expect any less from a software with a price tag of $2,000.00.]


This is the trial version. It is limited in the following ways:
1. A logo will be inserted in the encoded stream.
2. Encoder control list cannot be saved or loaded.
3. Framewise setting is not available for Quality setting.

There is nothing wrong whatsoever, if it works for you, however the progs I mentioned do it much faster and give you control over what you copy, which can result in a better picture ratio, that is, closer to the 1:1 ratio we all covet. A 1:1 ratio would theoretically result in a backup as good in terms of quality, as the original. That is why I personaly use those progs, which have trials and are fairly priced. Bottom line - I say to each his own.

I'm curious as to where it origingated. Usually the industry is pretty tight on the releases and most aren't available till release date.
_____________________________________________________________________

absolutely right. I used to work at blockbuster though and we would 98% of the time recieve movies a little over 1 week in advance, but however on bigger movies (the other 2%)we would recieve them close to 1 month before their release date. We would then be allowed to bring them home.

Why 2 transcoders? I didn't say other software wouldn't do backups; just that AnyDVD has consistently been the quickest for updates and easiest to use. As for Shrink, I'm sure you didn't use that for bypassing the copyright protection. Obsolete software just doesn't handle the new protection schemes. DVDFab Express must be up to date for what you were doing.

Now that AnyDVD has been updated to 5.9.5.3 it claims the processing for compliance is no longer needed. I just got my copy of Narnia, so I'll give the new version a try and see.

I burned Narnia using CloneDVD2 only....worked like a charm! I couldn't use DVD Decrypter or DVD Shrink..kept getting error messages....will use CloneDVD2 or DVD FabExpress for future Dvd's.

I used Dvd FabExpress for Capote and Geisha....didn't have to use anything but good old DVD Shrink for King Kong...didn't have a problem burning that one.

Does anyone know how a dual layer burner works...I just put in a HP Dual Layer w/Light scribe. Does that mean I don't have to shrink the movies to burn them??? Any help greatly appreciated.

ANYDVD + DVD X PLATINUM owned king kong, Narnia, & Brokeback Mountain ( I was only testing Brokeback.. not really wanting to watch it ha. ha.)

It also ripped and burned in 1/2 hour.. perfectly. Can anyone confirm use of AnyDVD speeds up rip/burn time that much?

CCE basic is very sufficient for DVD backups and only costs $60. The limitation for this type of work is in the number of passes CCE SP can do as opposed to CCE Basic(3). However in my experience 3 passes is normally enough. Even in cases where the DVD is in excess of 2 hrs long and an extra pass might be desirable the difference in the finished output is minimal.

BTW I did Chronicles Of Narnia(DVD) with DVD Fab Decrypter, DVD-RB Pro/CCE(Main Movie Only)and had no issues.

Love that freeware and buy the much more expensive media. Makes sense in some perverted universe I guess. I forget though, DVDFab Express isn't free. Use DVDFab Decrypter, and burn with ImgBurn onto the expensive DL media. ;) Then I opt for the other extreme, use retail software to burn to the less expensive media. Less than 50 backups and I'm well ahead on the cost factor.

@mcmenace
CCE comes in different flavors. The CCE SP costs about $2000 US and it's trial is the one to use since the Basic version of CCE (about $60) times out. Basic is the one to purchase for regular use with apps such as RB. As noted the CCE SP has a logo on the screen. The company is going to do something to prevent some of the pirating of their apps. For the average person, the $60 Basic CCE makes much more sense than the $2000 CCE SP. The biggest difference is that Basic is limited to 2 passes and SP is capable of many. More than 3 passes is a waste with most backup jobs and most of the time 2 passes do just as well. Do the math.

If time isn't a big issue, then the HC encoder can be used with the free RB and a high quaility backup can be achieved (no logos). When viewing on big screen, note the difference in backgrounds and in action scenes watch for blurrs in quick movement and in such things as flames. The differences are there. If one pays attention they can see a difference between using a transcoder and a true encoder.

What I did to copy both King Kong and Narnia, was to use the AnyDVD file ripper to the hard drive. After doing this, you will encounter an error with shrink (go back to whatever folder you have your movies and delete video_ts folder, video_ts .ifo and video_ts .bup). It's the first three files that appear in DVD Decrypter and replace them using decrypter. DVD Shrink will function fine after this. Enjoy your copied movie.

As for anydvd's ripper, i'm not sure why it modifies the vts files.

It works.

I know the solution, or various solutions to Narnia are in this thread, but this one is for the people 9who like me) can not be bothered reading all the way through....

DVD SHRINK WILL DO IT WITH EITHER,,,,
"DVD REGION+CSS FREE" - google it !!!
or later versions of AnyDVD.

There is no need for all this VOB blanker stuff, why complicate things?

This leads me to my question..
I have been using the demo version of AnyDVD 5.6.4.1 (i think it's that one) which does not help with newer movies such as narnia.

If I pay the $20 for the real one, when it's updated do you have to pay any more? Does anybody have the full version and do yo9u get all the updates?

thanks

And if you use the ripper that is now built into AnyDVD there is no need for VobBlanker, as the AnyDVD ripper will now do the same thing and fix the VTS files while ripping.

those guys at slysoft deserve to be paid for this product.
besides, all the so called "cracks" on the download sites are bloody viruses!

Yeah, it will fix the VTS files. Does a decent job, but it should seeing as how they stole the FixVTS code to do it. What a bunch of scumbags at SlySoft! Sorry, but when they start ripping off free tools to bouy their payware I lose any interest in buying their products AT ALL.

Yup, updates are FREE. Sometimes 2-3 a DAY, but usually multiple updates a week. Then some discs like (reportedly) Menace II Society STILL won't copy. I'm sure SlySoft can't wait for your order though.

then again, i am now using that region+css free thing, which seems to be good.
maybe i should pay for that one instead?

any views on which is best?

I just found this thread and read through with interest especially as I'm ripping Narnia right now with DVD Decrypter and will soon be burning it to disc using DVD Shrink with no other software involved.

Yeah, I've seen the error messages you all report DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink gives you but I'd also like to say that I have made a perfect copy of Madagascar using the aforementioned programs and nothing extra.

The process takes a little longer than usual and as soon as I have a working copy of Narnia in my DVD player I'll report back with exactly how I've done it as I don't want to supply incorrect information.

Slysoft stole nothing from the author of FixVTS. It's freesource meterial on the web. Slysoft gave credit to FixVTS, they weren't claiming FixVTS as their creation. They did modify it so it wasn't working with already decrypted and ripped files. The AnyDVD ripper bypasses the copyright protection during the rip and utilizes FixVTS to process for compliance. Instead of 2 or 3 steps, everything is done during the rip. With the newest version (5.9.5.3), Slysoft claims the processing is no longer needed.

And for those that like freeware, Narnia is a walk in the park, read that as easy. Rip with DVD Decrypter, the bad sectors are missing that cause it to stall on the read. Following the rip, process with FixVTS (entire DVD). Then open with Shrink or whatever. So, DVD Decrypter, FixVTS, and DVD Shrink are all that's needed and they're all free.

As for myself, I'll stick with the way I do it. AnyDVD + DVD Decrypter (Slysoft preferred settings), encode with RB/CCE and burn with Nero Express. For those that like the auto burn option, both DVD Decrypter and ImgBurn do a good job burning. Those 2 are good burners, I just use Nero because I have it and have gotten used to it doing a good job.
