I am unable to rip a film on a DVD-R disc.
I usually use DVD Decrypter but i cannot use it with this disc. When
Decrpter loads the file after putting the disc in the drive i get I/O Errors immediatley.
If i ignore them it will rip it until it gets a 3rd of the way throught the last VOB And then i get more I/O Errors and it wont let me ignore them, they just go on and on.
I installed AnyDVD ver 6.0.9.9 which gave me this info......
Summary for drive E: (AnyDVD 6.0.9.9)
Drive (Hardware) Region: 2
Media is a Data DVD.
Booktype: DVD-R (version 5), Layers: 1
Total size: 2097151 sectors (4095 MBytes)
Video DVD (or CD) label: MUTILADOS
Media is not CSS protected.
Video Standard: NTSC Media is locked to region(s): 1 4!
RCE protection not found.
DVD structure appears to be correct.
Found & removed fluxDVD protection!
Found & removed bogus title set!
Autorun not found on Video DVD.
Found & removed 4 bad sector protections!
Emulating RPC-2 drive with region 1!
As you will now know this is a backup. It is on a Verbatim DVD-R which has a capacity of 4.3gb yet the properties show it as having 5.07gb......strange !
Can anyone tell me how a backup can have copy protection on it ?
I thought all that would be taken out before or during copying ?
Also you may have noticed that the disc is also Region Protected, Regions 1 and 4 ?
So my main problem is that i cannot rip this film to my Hdd in order to rip out all the stuff i dont want, i just want movie only.
Could anyone please offer any assistance or should i just bin it ?
Keep it. I think all you need is a simple DVD ripper. Try Xillisoft DVD Ripper Platinum or some other one. If that don't work then I think HD-DVD's arn't rippable. Unless aXXo comes out with one.
maybe try DVDFab Decrypter (free), it's possible that AnyDVD isn't able to do this movie yet, maybe DVDFab can't yet - http://www.dvdidle.com/free.htm
@Xch4ng3 - dunno quite what HD-DVD has to do with anything ?. And there's no need for Xillisoft DVD Ripper Platinum when there's free tools that can do the job in conjunction with AnyDVD

Wow, I didn't know DVD-FAB was free? Thanks for the info anyways.
I tried DvDFab and it told me it had problems reading Vob_4 (dirty or scratched) the disc is in pristine condition, not a mark on it. It got stuck on 93.2%, so i told it to ignore all and 2 hours later i went back to it and it was on 95% so i aborted.
Could the problem be in the original rip, i.e. not ripped correctly ?
Upto now i have tried the following s/ware....
Dvd Decrypter versions - 3.1.7.0 and 3.5.4.0
AnyDvd ver 6.0.9.9
xilisoft dvd ripper ver 1.1.1.2
DVDFabDecrypter ver 3.0.5.0
FixVTS1.6
Surely there must be some software i can use for this, if not it's going in the bin.
