The exact wording of the error message could prove useful.

I was wanting to know if there is a guide for VOB blanker?
There have been several dvds lately that I used this program for and I don't know how to determine what to blank.

"DVD SHrink encountered an error and cannot continue. Invalid DVD Navigation structure"

Here is your VobBlanker guide(s): http://jsoto.posunplugged.com/guides.htm

@JJYkim

That error is due to sony's new arcoss protection. The simplest solution would be to Download the 21 day free trial version of AnyDVD, set DVD Decryter to ElbyCDIO->elaborate bytes in tools,settings,I/O tab and rerip.

Basically yes...DVD Decrypter and DVD Shrink are no longer being updated so they can't handle the newer copy protections on new releases. With the help of other free programs, such as DVDFab Decrypter and DVD43, they will still work pretty well. But to get the most out of the backup experience AnyDVD would be the best choice IMHO, but it is not free.

Hi,
I tried it after dling the software. I still get the same message. There's nothing extra I have to do with the program once I install it is there?

I mean, it's running in the background, but is there something else I need to do w/ AnyDVD ??

Thanks for your patience

Nope there isn't any additional setup involved. Put your DVD in the drive wait for the little red fox head to turn from red to grey and back to red again. I guess you could check the settings in AnyDVD...double click on the fox, hit settings, go to the DVD tab, and under the feature removal options make sure that the software and hardware region options are ticked...this should remove the region codes.

Then open DVD Shrink or Nero Recode or DVD Decrypter (to set up DVD Decrypter to let AnyDVD strip the copy protection do the following: Tools,settings,I/O tab->under the interface options tick the ElbyCDIO->elaborate bytes option.), and rip and edit as needed, then burn with your favorite program.

If the task still doesn't work, you may have a PAL formatted disc that needs to be converted to NTSC. If that is the case, here is a thread explaining how to do that... http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/88644

spjcarter,

Use DVDFabdecrypter (current ver. 2.9.6.8) to rip to HDD (in a folder called something like "Fab Movies"). Then use Shrink (select Open Files instead of Open Disk, select Video in Fab Movies folder) and DVD Decrypter to burn, works great.

BTW, here is a link to bbmayo's guides, very helpful.

All the guides you need can be found in the above link.

@VASQUEZG

DVDD can still be found here: http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/software.htm

Make a copy on a disc as these programs won't be around forever.

I will be visiting USA soon. I hope to buy some DVDs. I presume they will all be NTSC. Does anyone know of a free downloadable program which will enable me to play them on a region 2 player (Nec DVD+RW ND-1100A) without changing my Windows XP region code? My normal format here is PAL.

Many thanks in anticipation for any help.

Please understand that region code has nothing to do with NTSC.

NTSC,PAL and SECAM are different video standards used in different parts of the world. It has to do with the size of the picture on the TV as well as the frame rate.

More info:

http://hometheater.about.com/cs/consumerresources/a/aawhosyourpal...

Region codes are in place specifically for DVDs and DVD playback equipment. They prevent for example, a DVD purchased in Great Britain from being played in a player sold in Australia.

REGION 1 -- USA, Canada
REGION 2 -- Japan, Europe, South Africa, Middle East, Greenland
REGION 3 -- S.Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Parts of South East Asia
REGION 4 -- Australia, New Zealand, Latin America (including Mexico)
REGION 5 -- Eastern Europe, Russia, India, Africa
REGION 6 -- China
REGION 7 -- Reserved for Unspecified Special Use
REGION 8 -- Reserved for Cruise Ships, Airlines, etc...
REGION 0 or REGION ALL -- Discs are uncoded and can be played Worldwide, however, PAL discs must be played in a PAL-compatible unit and NTSC discs must be played in an NTSC-compatible unit.

The best way to watch NTSC movies is to get a player that has a built in converter and can play both. There is software that will let you change the video format. It is a lengthy process and the results are not always what you expect. You basically have to "rebuild" the DVD from scratch. Nerovision Express is an example of a program that can convert PAL/NTSC.

Most ripping programs can make a DVD region-free. Shrink does and it's free.
I like this one but it's not free:
http://www.dvdidle.com/dvd-region-free.htm

And like I mentioned before, you will still have to deal with the NTSC/PAL issue.

Google something like, 'DVD Region codes' and you'll get no end of procedures for de-reginising your DVD player.The one I used worked perfectly well.
As for the NTS... whatever to PAL. It is not even worth thinking about-too lengthy and not more than 20% successful

Many thanks Fastfrank and George -- Frank, you really are fast!

I'll hope for the best with my proposed NTSC discs.

Thanks again.
