I am trying to rip a DVD that this one guy sent me. It is a bootleg of a band. I have tried to rip it using DVD Decryptor and I get an error message. I have tried to use DVD Shrink and I get another error message. I tried using the OPEN FILES option in DVD Shrink and going to the VIDEO_TS folder and I get this message:

Invalid DVD navigation structure

This DVD is odd since I have to open one folder, then a second to get to the VIDEO_TS folder. Here is a picture of what is inside the VIDEO_TS folder:

Can someone tell me how I can rip this disc? I just need about 30 minutes of the first part of the video. The other parts are useless to me. Please go into details.

Thank you!!!

You can try DVDFab but because it's a bootleg, I suspect it's a bad disc.

99% of all problems are between the computer and the chair.

If you haven't used it yet, AnyDVD has a free trial that is fully functional..

I get the same error with every disc I burn on my DVD recorder (they play fine though) and using the AnyDVD ripper to get the files to my HDD cleans them up just fine... It actually says its "repairing".

SOLVED!!!

The DVD was in PAL format. I converted it to NTSC and then I was able to use the files in what ever program that I used.

Thanks to everyone that looked at this post and/or responded.

How did you convert from PAL to NTSC?

Re: is there an easy way to convert pal to ntsc?
YES! This took me forever to find and took a year of research. I did the long slow TMPenc way and yes the results are great but is it ever a pain plus it takes all afternoon for just one movie. Not really practical.

DVD Santa's results are a bit jerky and not very good from what I've seen but yes, it does work.

The best one click solution I've found is a program called ConvertXtoDVD from a company called VSO. It converts the movie just fine but you won't get the menu's. Oh well. You don't get them with TMPEnc either and this way is MUCH easier.

Here's how to do the conversion:

When you install ConvertXtoDVD make sure to select NTSC and leave all the other options alone.

1) Rip the main movie to a folder using DVD Decrypter or FAB DVD Decrypter or something like that. If your movie is in IMG or ISO format you can mount it with DAEMON tools. Either way you should end up with 4 or 5 VOB files inside a folder representing the main movie. Each VOB except for the last one in the set is about a GB in size so you can tell which is the main movie.

2) Start up ConvertXtoDVD and put in a blank DVD 5.

3) Click File then Add Video File

4) Select the first VOB in your set of 4 or 5 that represents the main movie - ConvertX will see the entire set as part of one movie so no need to select the rest of the VOB's.

5) Click Convert

That's about it. In an hour or so you should have your brand new NTSC DVD.

If you really want to be sure it's doing something you can pause the movie under Action and then in Window you can click Video Preview.
