Quote: Thanks again for the clear instructions. However, I came accross a problem again during VOB VTS_08 process using VobBlanker. It said "Error reading input VOB: Unsynchronized". Do you have any suggestions? Thanks in advance
@z3n
You shouldn't be getting any "unsynchronized" errors at all when using either DVD Decrypter to rip the movie via Mode, File F or DVDFAB Decrypter to rip the movie into hard drive first. Once that process is completed, then just follow the mini guide above and you should be fine.
I've just did another tested on a new backup earlier today for my brother with the same method as provided above and it went through smoothly. So I can't tell you why you're getting errors. Worst case senario is to uninstall DVD Decrypter, DVDFAB Decrypter and VobBlanker and reinstall them back on and try it again.
By the way, did you have DVD Decrypter settings set to what I have on the very first page in prior to the ripping part? Try that and give it another shot. If DVD Decrypter failed, then try to rip it with DVDFAB Decrypter and just "BLANK" those "PGCs", then "PROCESS" as mentioned from the mini guide and you'll be fine.

Sorry to bother you again, I've tried to uninstall and install DVD Decrypter again, followed the exact settings, but it still doesn't work. I've noticed however, when I ran DVD Decrypter, right about VTS_08 there were many "Pack header not found"s, is that the cause of the problem? If I was to use DVDFab Decrypter, is there certain settings I should do? Thanks alkohol

At what Mode did you ripped with DVD Decrypter? I recommend using Mode, File F to rip. Yes, you can rip it with DVDFAB Decrypter and use the mini guide on VobBlanker to "blank out" PGC 2, PGC 3, PGC 4, and PGC 5" then click PROCESS. And no.... there's no special settings in DVDFAB Decrypter, just rip it. and open up VobBlanker, then follow the guide process. Let me know what's the results.

You're welcome, glad I could help. It only took me less than an hr to have a successfully working backup of "Madagascar".
Happy Holidays!!

@Pooch1624
Are you serious? You need to buy a dvd burner and in order for you to properly backup dvds, you need to have at least one dvd burner and another dvd-rom drive will be useful.

Great Guide Alkohol!! After numerous attempst with other guides I think I am this close to burning!! So right at the end I am stuck. You see I cant seem to change my burner to book type DVD-Rom. I have burned a disc succesfully but the problem is that my stand alone dvdplayer reads this as files and doesnt load like a true dvd. I am assuming that if i change the book type then all will be well? I have a new Dell system (cant afford custom made!!) with a dvd burner that they call
HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GWA4164B. Does this identify the type of burner I have? Can you help with how to change the book type? I truly appreciate it!!!

@mattp9989
You'll need to burn with a high quality DVD+R (Yuden, Maxell (mij) or Verbatim) in order for your burner (or Nero) to have a successfully "book typed" into DVD-ROM. You can not use any DVD-R or DVD-RW and have Nero or your drive book typed, it won't work that way. With "bitsettings" or "book typing" DVD+R into DVD-ROM, any/all functional standalone dvd players should be able to read/play the backup easily.
Honestly, I really don't know how you managed to have a successfully burned, but your standalone dvd player read it as files and not as dvd? I guess you could try to burn with a DVD+R media on your next burn and hopefully it'll book type into DVD-ROM.
According, to "club.cdreaks.com" it shows that your burner is an OEM LG, but unfortunately LG doesn't have any "firmware" to support the drive. So your best bet is head to "dell support" and ask them if there is any current "firmware" to update on your burner.
However, I do believe that your dvd burner (HL-DT-ST DVD+-RW GWA4164B) does support "book type" automatically, once you're using a DVD+R to burn. Go here http://club.cdfreaks.com/showthread.php?t=155355 and here (Dell forum) http://forums.us.dell.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=di...
Good luck!!

Hi Alkohol,
I just follow exactly these steps to rip my DVD with DVD Decrypter. When I try to use Nero Recode 2 to import the file, it just pop up this msg, do you know what I am doing wrong? thanks.
MSG: Nero Recode 2 encountered an error and cannot continue. An internal erro occurred. A VOBU address is out of bounds. This may be caused by an in valid DVD navigation structure.

@tempdvd
What movie are you trying to encode/transcode with Nero Recode 2 (or that you were having trouble)? At what Mode did you have DVD Decrypter ripped/decrypted? I recommend using Mode, File F to rip into the hard drive first.
Keep in mind that some of the newer movies (such as Madagascar, The Brothers Grimm, Stealth, Sky High, Valaint, The Great Raid, ect.) had the current Macrovision RipGuard and Sony's ARccOS, so you'll need VobBlanker to process and filter out thost bad/protected sectors. Once VobBlanker is done you can import into Nero Recode 2 and continue on using the guide.
Let me know what movie you're having trouble with and I'll see what I can do to help out alright.

Alkohol, your guides are great, just one question regarding VobBlanker with the newer discs: After ripping with Decrypter, can you just "process/filter" through VobBlanker then use Shrink/Recode? Or are there some times when you have to "blank" specific PGC's? I see people just "processing" and others "blanking", so I was hoping that you could set me straight. By the way VobBlanker is amazing for editing out trailers and "junks" like you stated. Saves mucho space...Thank you...

Alkohol, Oh yeah, are there any things when using VobBlanker to save space that I should be REALLY careful about editing out of original discs that could affect the final backup? Thanks again...

hi there alkohol
i just read all this thread - wow
some brilliant stuff in here... but i have a question for you, will the new AnyDVD come with the new protections sorted out? so you wont need the vobBlanker part just rip with DvdD then shrink it and burn?

@J66
Honestly, to answer your question, if you just "process and filter" through VobBlanker, then most likely 95% - 100% you'll have successful backup (I may be wrong though because I'm not a VobBlanker guru - I wish I am, but I have decent knowledge with VobBlanker and have been using for a while). On the other hand, if you know which PGCs/TTNs or Cells (reference from PgcEdit combo with PSL Plugin) to "BLANK" out, then you'll have a successful backup 100% after VobBlanker completed the processing.
Yes, I definitely agree that VobBlanker is good to "edit, cut, preview and blank out" any junks that you don't needed ie trailers, previews, FBI warnings, commentary, etc.

@Rotary
Again, honestly in my opinion, NO. If you have the latest AnyDVD you shouldn't have to worry. I know AnyDVD is keen for cracking encrypted protections, it is arguably one of the greatest cracking engine at this very moment. Ironically, on few occasion, I've seen very few members that has AnyDVD running, but failed to backup a few of the latest dvd movies released.
Believe it or not, I still don't have (haven't use) AnyDVD yet. I ripped all of my dvd movies with either DVD Decrypter or DVDFAB Decrypter, and so far it has never let me down. Maybe in the near future, when both DVD Decrypter and DVDFAB Decrypter can no longer decrypt any of the newer encrypted protections (or protected sectors), then for sure I'll look into AnyDVD.
Cheers now!!

Recode 2 is on the newest Nero update 6.6.0.18(which I use all the time). Just released in November and available from Nero's website. It's also in Nero 7...
