new here. I need help. i keep getting an I/O error @ 51% with dvd decrypter/dvd shrink. The DVD is a DL DVD. Not sure how to post all my settings for Decrypter.
Your disc is either dirty, scratched or the protection is something that Decrypter cannot handle.
What's the name of the movie and what VOB is it failing on?
If it fails to rip all the way, it is likely that your disc is dirty, scratched, or a defectively pressed original. More likely though, like dialysis1 said, you are dealing with a copy protection that the venerable but now outdated DVDDecrypter is unable to handle. Try a different ripping solution, and see if that solves your problem. DVDFab Platinum 4.1.0.2 as well as the free DVDFab HD Decrypter 4.1.0.2 are some other FABulous rippers =). Links are below:
DVDFab Platinum 4.1.0.2 [$$$ Ware] "DVDFab Platinum is all-in-one DVD copying/converting/burning software. In just one or two steps, you can copy any DVD to DVDR/PSP/iPod/etc."

It copies entire DVD movie to hard disk, and removes all the protections (CSS, RC, RCE, APS, UOPs and Sony ARccOS) while copying. It also comes with full HD-DVD and Blu-Ray support (Removes AACS)."
