dvd ripper

well ....... I'm trying Wizard again and this time it seems to be going a lot quicker, should finish within 2.5 hours by the looks of things, suppose I can handle that. If it comes out as one file or not, who knows but if it doesn't then I'll try that linky.
 
Ok, it made one heck of a good Avi backup (FairUseWizard). It was a bit lengthy but I think it's because it chose a high encoding rate or something. And, the other bummer is that the movie has subtitles ........ but again, that's me just not knowing how to 'turn' that off.

LOL... OK you're getting there. Play around with the settings some more. Also be careful which picture stream you choose... some of them have commentary on as well.
 
What DVD ripper can by pass that copy protection created by crc errors?
 
The Free version of Fair Use Wizard will rip any DVD to a maximum of 700 Mb AVI file with one click.

What else do you need?

Why doesn't it pick my SATA dvd drive? I have one IDE & one SATA but it picks up the IDE on both drive letters...
 
and both your drives are visible in explorer? and you have a DVD in the SATA drive you want to rip from? Can you rip the DVD to your hard drive and make it into an ISO then use Fair Use?

Yup Windows Explorer see's em both. I eventually did copy the dvd to the hdd but it's rather silly to have to do that tho :(

Actually, I do that as standard practice. It does give a better quality rip. Especially if the ripped ISO is on another hard drive to the one you are ripping to...

To Rip a DVD to an AVI file...
The free version of this program Fair Use Wizard can rip any DVD to a 700 Mb AVI (XVid) File... with just one click...

but.... I find I get a much better quality rip, when I follow these steps...
i) Use DVD Decrypter to rip the DVD to your Hard Drive.
ii) Use DVD Shrink to make an ISO image of the DVD, but turn the compression off completely, in other words, the ISO image will be an exact image of the DVD. Also enable the two extra read options in DVD Shrink to get a better quality image, it is slower, but it pays off. Put that image on a different drive to the one you are going to rip to.
iii) Now use Fair Use Wizard to rip from that unencrypted image in your hard disk. You will get a very high quality rip with no artifacts and no "streaking".
Compare that to a rip straight from the DVD and you will see what I mean. Of course the quality of your DVD drive and speed of your processor is also a factor. 3.0 Ghz strongly recommended!
Here is a guide for Fair Use Wizard... if you need one...
