While I agree that there has been a number of updates (a good thing), the majority of them have been to keep out dated, third party software operational and minor tweeking and not due to unusual protections.

@gus738,
Never thought the log out would do it...Thanks for that info.
My PC starts up very fast though. I only have 3 things running in the background and about 6 or 7 services. I use Windows 2000 so there is not nearly as much garbage as Windows XP.

I think that updating is a great thing if you can offer some new functionality. The best updates I guess were when they added the ripper and the fix vts functionality. Until then AnyDVD was pointless because you still had to use other apps to rip and to fix problems it couldn't handle.
Luckily for us all, few discs are a problem. For every Fun with Dick and Jane, there are 100 like King Kong that can be ripped by nearly anything. That's where AnyDVD gets a lot of it's rep anyway. "I ripped this with AnyDVD, what a great program" someone posts. "Me too!" cries another newb. Truth be told, Decrypter probably would have ripped it too, for free, but since 1 or 2 discs stumped these posters due to whatever reason they do everything with AnyDVD now.
If you use it and like it, great. It seems to work well enough if you keep it updated, but there is room for improvement IMO, and there are freeware apps that still do it just as well even without the updates.

@Jigen, (No offense taken) The reason AnyDVD updates so often is because the software itself is used around the world where often different forms of DVD-CD encryptions exist. I know you have read post where people who are members here and live say in Europe have expressed utter difficulty backing up a movie that many from different parts of the world but mostly the USA say that they have backed up the same movie with no problem.
AnyDVD software updates cater to all it's cutomer's here and abroad. So do understand AnyDVD caters to a very broad and international customer base and everyones issues with backing up movies breaking DVD encryptions differ around the world. Just look at all the languages listed in the program Besides the updates cost nothing and hurt nothing. You don't even have to update if you as the owner don't feel the need to.:P

@N2DVD,
There is only one thing I see wrong with your argument. You stated that there are several encryptions around the world, but there is only one, CSS. There is no other encryption on a DVD as putting a new one would render the disc useless.
What there is around the world is a different way of corrupting a DVD (that is all that ARccOS and Ripguard is). Say Lords of Dogtown in Region 1 will have Cells 6 & 13 unreadable, maybe LoD in Region 2 will have cells 3 & 5 unreadable.
Also, this may be contained in the first 18 cells vs.. the first 16 cells and maybe in VTS_01 vs VTS_04.
These are not different encryptions, just different DVD structures.
I think what Jigen is saying is that AnyDVD should not care about the different DVD Structures and not need to update as much, i.e. a better structure analysis or better corruption detection.
It should be possible to make a long term fix, but then you may get more problems if you use it for ripping the corrupted movies.
I will not get into why DVDD works on some movies where AnyDVD fails, because I do not want to give anyone any ideas on how to better implement their corruption, just keep in mind that Macrovision, the company that makes Ripguard, which is found on Narnia, owns DVD Decrypter...

Fact is... DVD Decrypter + PSL plugins via PgcEdit (FREE) is unstoppable and VobBlanker (FREE) is the strongest "invalid structures, invalid pgc, invalid data navigation, fake/dummy cells" processing tool.
Another fact is that DVDFAB Decrypter (FREE) is one of the greatest FREE ripper in my humble opinion besides DVD Decrypter.

Totally unstoppable, and if you don't have these in your software stable I can't imagine why.

gus738 why in the world would you be saying (NO longer am i going to get cracked versions) in this forum you know what ever you do is up to you but don't say stuff like that, it is good that you are geting the right frame of mind, but talking about the cracked stuff in here is frowned on in here, so just a heads up ok, happy burning

Sony movies are problematic. Sometimes DVDFabDecrypter 2.9.7 works for Sony movies. I have another program called SuperClone DVD v3.0 which has been successful with Sony movies. It's only problem is it turns the subtitles a green color from original white.
The only time I had to use AnyDVD was on Memoirs of A Geisha.
PS..Even the ripped DVD of Dick and Jane was wierd. When ripped files were played on PowerDVD, half of the third VOB file was the second half of the movie and the second half of the third VOB file was the start again of the movie. Tried loading the files onto DVD Shrink just for experimentation, and it could not read the third VOB.
But once you load the IFO and burn it, the files seem to rearrange themselves and the DVD plays fine.
NOTE"""Seems like every Sony movie is different, even the new releases. Memoirs of a Geisha works with AnyDVD, but not with Fun with Dick and Jane. Best to have all the decrypters I've listed on this note...if one doesn't work, the other will. Good Luck All...Paul

@ apac99999 if you read my ealier comment you'' figure out that fun with dick and jane can be copied perfectly fine with the latest AnyDVD build... the combination of anydvd+clonedvd2 as long as its updates you will NEVER have problems to backup a dvd ever.

I know all about AnyDVD. All I can say about this product is that it's a waste of money. It works with one DVD, but not others. AnyDVD can't seem to work on DVDs that have simple chapter number manipulation.
If you're going to spend any money, go for DVD Fab Platinum, which decrypts, shrinks and burns any DVD...no matter the title.
I've gone through too many AnyDVD version trial changes to waste money on something that only occassionally works.

@apac99999 No offense, Would you care to expound on what you experienced with what you refer to as chapter manipulation. I too have experience some inaccuracy with AnyDVD when set to "Jump to Main MENU" which for me is a major benefit from AnyDVD. It will sometimes go to scene selection instead of play. But works %98 of the time. Overall it's a great program and works quicker than DVDFab. I like Slysoft AnyDVD for their support. It's good to have professionals on your side with the same objective in mind when you run into tough movies. I would say try it though there is nothing wrong with tinkering with multiple programs for your end result, I don't always have the time or even see the need to do so. AnyDVD definitely simplifies the back-up process along with other programs like Vob Blanker.
The most recent version 5.9.6.0 has improved recordability with NERO 6 or 7 which for me is great because I use Recode2. So with AnyDVD it's like using just one back-up program for the most part. Many struggle with the purchase of the sofware mentally and perhaps financially? But for what AnyDVD does It's well worth it. I know you'd buy it if the freeware dried up or was no longer free. Hey you pay for your flicks, Any where from $5.00 to $24.99 What's $40.00 bucks and even cheaper if you purchase it on sale or in combination with other available SlySoft programs. AnyDVD? Any? Any?...AnyDVD? Yeeeezirrr AnyDVD.:p

Yep, once you miss one or two updates this "super fantastic" program can't even handle some discs that have no special protection. Personally, I think that is total BS when they call the thing AnyDVD.
No offense, but you go on and on how terrible AnyDVD is over and over ad nauseum in multiple threads. Why don't you just not use it and quit whining about it? No one else seems to have a problem with it, it does any movie I ever tried. You certainly aren't going to stop users from using it so why bother?? Appears to me all you are doing is looking for an argument and don't really have anything intelligent or useful to say. What you did say is BS, my daughter was a couple updates behind and had NP with new releases.BTW, if you bought it how can you miss updates???
Try upgrading your firmware.

You have to run the file through Shrink, and then burn it. If Shrink gives you and error then rip the movie again using DVDFab Decrypter and the use Shrink. DVDFab Decrypter is much better at doing newer/tougher protected movies.

Guys I'm not talking about the free version of DVD Fab Decrypter. I'm talking about the paid version. DVD Fab Platinum (which includes the DVD Fab Gold program - also a paid one) is not free. Just decrypted Aeon Flux, which was 18 minutes for decryption and burning total, from the time you press START. I only have an old 1.7Ghz P4 512MB home-built PC, nothing fancy.
AnyDVD's problem is that once you update, you lose access to the older version. And occassionally the updated version does not work as well as the prior version. I have a second 10GB HD with XP with an older version of AnyDVD. My main drive has the lastest AnyDVD. I don't recall the movie that the latest version could not decrypt, but the older version loaded on my second HD worked on the movie. That is the problem that I find with AnyDVD, and I am not the only one. All my friends have had the same issues. It is very good, but not always reliable.
PS. The only problem you will ever run into with DVD Fab Platinum is that when you select the DVD, you occassionally have to select the VIDEO_TS folder as the source. I've had to do this twice when it choked on using the DVD title as source.
