Lords of Dogtown

[discorob3]

When trying to rip with DVD Decrypter it will lock up after a few seconds...
When ripping with DVD FAB Decrypter 2.9.5.0 everything works fine....

After copying main movie only with DVD Shrink the disc I made will lock up in Dvd Player(Denon DVD - 1710) stuck at 0:0:0 until you hit fast forward and then it will lock up at 0:0:4 for a few seconds and then jump to 0:0:33 at which point the movie starts and plays just fine....

If you try to just back up whole disc with DVD Shrink it gives you an error
saying the file will be too big to burn into your media...

Anybody have similar results?

I am wondering if I am just an idiot or did this have something to do with the
"new" form of ArcCos supposedly on this particular title (according to changelog of DVD Fab Decrypter)?

Thanks...

edit: this is region 1 disc and the unrated version "Unleashed"

There has been a flood of reports about this title, see this thread (http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?t=55399) at digital video forums.

Hi,

For your problem, could you please try new beta version to see the result?

Hi!

I had no trouble using DVD Decrypter v.3.54 to successfully rip the Region1 (Unrated/"Unleashed") version of "Lords of Dogtown".

If you are (as you should be) using version 3.54 of DVD Decrypter set to -0- Read error retries and "Ignore read errors", be patient, as this particular rip will take SEVERAL hours, due to the very large number of bad sectors.

After successfully ripping to your hard drive, WITHOUT HAVING TO CREATE A PSL FILE, you should be able to use DVD Shrink to Re-author the movie only...

Doesn't work! Same problems as with the old version.

DVD Decrypter will rip to the harddrive in Files mode without any read errors showing but the movie won't play on the PC or 'Shrink'... So you must be talking about an ISO rip... I'm doing one now... sheeesh, you sure weren't kidding about SEVERAL hours... I'm past 200 errors now. I guess I'll know if it works in the morning.

No, I said exactly what I meant. In "File Mode", set to "ALL files" (NOT only "movie files"), DVD Decrypter v.3.54 generated over 700 "L-EC Unable to read sector" errors on my Region 1 (Unrated/"Unleashed") version of "Lords of Dogtown"...

That's okay dude... I went over to here http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?postid=274580#post274580 and used IfoEdit exactly as suggested but on VTS 02 and saved it... it worked perfectly.

Just to make certain that we are both dealing with the same DVD - Mine is the "Extended Cut"...

Dear all,

Could you please help me to test new beta of DVDFab Decrypter, to see if the output folder can be accepted by DVD Shrink without help of IFOEdit?

DVDFab Decrypter 2.9.5.2 Beta2:

Thank you very much!

@fengtao

I do most of my video-related work on a Win98SE system (because of its stability) - and your beta2 program (as well as v.2.95) either lock up the system or terminate as a result of unrecoverable read errors (No I did not email the error listing to dvdidle.com).

From the nature of the over 700 read errors identified under DVD Decrypter v.3.54 ("L-EC" unrecoverable sector errors), which proved to in no way interfere with the resultant perfect rip (and subsequent compression by both DVD Shrink and DVD95Copy), I'm guessing that this is NOT, in fact, the "ARccOS" copy protection. I'm speculating that this may be SONY "floating a trial balloon" of the new Macrovision "RipGuard" protection.

Am I correct?

Just figured out our disconnect... I forgot, but I'm running DVD43 in the background... sorry 'bout the misunderstanding there. But the bottomline is IfoEdit worked and it was MUCH faster. Thanks anyway.

Thanks for the clarification...


(Just kidding) Do you have an older relative named "polymer"? ;>}

I just wanted to report my experience with this film. First I tried using DVDD with the latest version of DVD43 running. I disabled checking for structure protection. It ripped fine but was unplayable in PgcEdit and WinDVD 4.

Next I tried DVDFabDecryptor 29. Ripped fine but video was severely pixelated. DVD43 was still running so I don't know if that was the problem.

I discovered that I could not play the original disc with DVD43 running so I disabled it and tried to play the DVDD version. Still unplayable.

I finally ran DVDD with a PSL2 file I found at another forum. That worked fine. The only problem I had was with VobBlanker 2.0.0.2. I could not blank all but the movie without errors. It turns out that the movie fits on one DVD and could be isolated with PgcEdit but what if the movie had to be split? I don't get a warm fuzzy feeling about this "solution" since it didn't work with VobBlanker.

You can go HERE (http://www.cdr-zone.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3543) and download these two guides that would clean up your IFO's and then you can come back and remove what you want with VOBB.
