My first reply should covered pretty much everything, but since you requested some free tools that does the same thing as AnyDVD, then read here.
If all you're looking for is/are some free ripping and backing up tools, then get these freewares below. Yes, sometimes some free tools are indeed the best.
<1> DVDFAB Decrypter (one of the best ripper at the moment)
<2> VobBlanker (one of the best invalid data structures or dummy cells processing tool, it can easily blank out any unwanted junks "i.e. fbi warnings, previews/trailers, commentary, etc.")
<3> FixVTS (another awesome invalid data structures or dummy cells processing tool)
<4> DVD Decrypter (a ripper and burning engine)
<5> ImgBurn (a burning engine "for ISO image" from LUK, the author of DVD Decrypter)
<6> DVD Shrink (a transcoder/compresser engine, also a ripper for older movies)
Here are 2 free methods that will work 100% on any movies/dvds (new released or old), yes I GUARANTEE YOU that it will work 100% if done/followed precisely. I wrote those 2 guides for Newbies or those that are interested or those that don't have the latest from AnyDVD.
IMPORTANT: I advise you or anyone to TURN OFF AnyDVD, DVD43 or other cracking engines that's running in the background, if you're going with these 2 free route. It's for the best... because if you had AnyDVD, DVD43 or other similar cracking engines running in the background, then you are likely to end up with some kind of errors, and or it will conflict one another only.
<><> Method 1 (DVDFAB Decrypter + VobBlanker) <><>
<1> rip the movie with DVDFAB Decrypter (get the latest available)
<2> process the VIDEO_TS.IFO file through VobBlanker (only 5 - 10 minutes to "process & correct" all dummy cells or invalid data structures, etc.)
<3> DVD Shrink to transcode your VIDEO_TS file created from VobBlanker as normal via Open Files
<4> burn your final ISO image with DVD Decrypter or ImgBurn
<><> Method 2 (PgcEdit + DVD Decrypter + PSL plugins + FixVTS) <><>
<1> PgcEdit to rip & re-rip the movie from scratch using DVD Decrypter with the help from PSL plugins/file
<2> FixVTS to process and filter out any left over craps, junks or bad sectors, etc.
<3> DVD Shrink to transcode/compress as normal
<4> burn your final ISO image with DVD Decrypter or ImgBurn
The only different for my guide is that I used Nero Recoded 2 with "AA + HQSR" or sometimes DVD Rebuilder Pro + CCE SP instead of DVD Shrink. You can use DVD Shrink all you want (it's free). However, I highly recommend using "DA + AEC (max sharpness or max smoothness) though, this will produces better quality in results.
For more info, just click on those 2 bold links under my sig. or click on my name and just take a quick look/read at my blogs.
Best of lucks to all and happy burning!!
