I've been using DVD Rebuilder (FREE VERSION) for a week or so. I ripped both Saw and Revenge of the Sith with DVD DEcryptor first in "File" mode and then took these files and re-encoded them with RB. I used "HC" mode and I set it for 2 passes. I've asked some questions on here about the percentage of qaulity I lose by putting these on a DVD-5 blank, but I'm still confused about some things. Besides being able to create an ISO file, what other advantages will I get with Rebuilder Pro? If I also went ahead and got CCE Basic, what are the advantages of it vs. HC Mode? I want to make backups that are virtually indestinguishable from the store bought dvd. One more question...how does DVD Fab Decryptor differ from regular Decryptor?
Thanks alot!
-Keith

I got the pro version, and the CCE basic.
The CCE basic is a very good addition as it is faster than HC and is the best encoder engine you can get. The commercial version with the same encoding engine cost over 2 grand, so we got a bargin.
When you pay for the pro version, one of the advantages is Free updates for life. You never have to pay for it again. I don't know all the other advantages of the pro version vs free as i dont use the free one anymore. Maybe someone else can chime in on the advantages. I use rebuilder when the compression is too much using DVD Shrink even after taking out the extras. Rebuilder is slow, but excellent in quality output.
As far as compression, check this thread for members input on that subject:

Well in the pro version you can of course do a 'movie only' encode, to devote all of the space on the DVD-5 for film. The results in this, while also using CCE is just excellent.
If you do want to have a virtually indistinguishable backup compared to an original, then it is worth the small investment.
Buy CCE Basic, it's relatively inexpensive and you have lifetime updates. Buy DVD RB Pro, you also have lifetime updates and you will never go back to using any other once you see the results... particularly on TV's which are 42" and above. Plus you will be supporting the authors of the program, to help them further develop the application to make it better for users like us.
Think of it as an investment. It's a small price to pay at first, but after your first few backups you will be more than happy.

Hi all,
I have used this software for the trial period and want to purchase it now. I see CCE is 1,900 U.S. dollars (on their website)and couldn't find a price for dvdrb. Also how does it compare to canopus procoder 2? Want to upgrade the quality of my backups as I bought a 42 high definition tv yesterday. Have done a search and canopus vs ccs w/dvdrb has not been compared. Thanks in advance as I wanna transgress to a higher degree of productivity :).

matt72,
You will want CCE basic ($58). It uses the same encoding engine as CCE SP ($1949). I don't have procoder but have heard it and CCE basic are very comparable. Here's a link to basic. http://www.cinemacraft.com/eng/index.html
To upgrade to dvd-rb pro click on the help tab in rb then click on make a donation. After you have made the donation ($25 I think) you will recieve an email with a link to download the pro version.

Most definitely. CCE Basic is well worth the small investment, as is DVD-RB Pro. A small price to pay for great results.
By the way... nice going on the guide L8ter!
