View Full Version : Newbie - "How To" question Regarding "Deja Vu"

I posted a thread in here a few weeks ago saying that I was having problems backing up The Movie "Deja Vu" using Ripit4me along w/ DVDshrink.
Seastrip_old said that the movie has two versions a 2 h 43min. "Extras Window" Version and a regular 2 h and 6 minute (not sure of exact length) version - and that all rippers automatically default to the longer version - so by selecting the 2h 6min version I should end up with the regular movie and not the extras window version.

- I guess my question is (still being a newbie) how do I select the shorter NON - extras window version. I had given up previously trying to figure out how to do this, and thought I'd take another crack at it.
- Do I first rip the full DVD using the one-click mode in Ripit4me and then once it gets to DVDshrink select the other version by re-authoring it? or is there a way to select the shorter version of the movie in Ripit4me - because as Seastrip_old said before it's already selected the longer movie by default. (as you can see I'm definately still a newbie - thanks again for taking the time to impart all your wisdom and knowledge to a newbie)

Sincerely

Rip the full dvd with ripit4me using wizard mode,go thru all the steps until it's done,and then open dvd shrink and reauthor (I'm assuming you have used shrink before to do this,if not read the dvdshrink guide on doom9 or mrbass.org).Being newbie,you might want to give dvdfab hd decrypter a try,works just like ripit4me,but easier to get the hang of,hope this helps.

Then go into DVD shrink and select your desired version. May need to play around a little with Vobblanker or the like, to get the desired results.

Thanks a lot for the help! I was able to find both versions this time and choose the shorter non-extras window version. Greatly appreciated!
