So far this has happened on three discs, Charlie's Angels, Save the last Dance, and Super Troopers.

I rip the dvd to the hard drive in order to re-author, etc. As soon as I try to play it from hard drive (with no editting done) it gives a wrong region error on the software player, although it still plays fine from the dvd-rom drive. If I delete the vobs necessary to make it fit on a dvd-r and burn it, that dvd-r will give a wrong region error.

It almost seems like the entry pointer is pointing at the wrong title.

All my software players and that is set to the proper region of the disc, every other disc I've tried has worked fine. It's just really weird because as soon as I rip it to the hard drive and try and play it I get a wrong region error. But yet it still plays off the drive.. weird.

If anyone knows why this happens or how I can fix it I would really like to know.

I'm sorry if this has been addressed before but I checked and couldn't find anything on it. Any input would be really appreciated.

Thanks

You have to remove RCE checking. You can do this in IFOedit.

No that's not it, I can remove RCE checking or set it to any region, no matter what it still gives a region error. I've ripped a few dozen dvd's in the past, this just snowballs me. No matter what I do I get an incorrect region error. It is a disc for region 1 (my region) btw, so even with RCE checking in it should work, and it definetely should without it... but no matter what I do I get region error.

I've seen the exact same thing. I know it happens even on Region 1 discs. You must remove all RCE checking in every IFO you have. You must save these IFO's once the checking has been removed. (it does not happen automatically) I assure you that once you've removed the RCE checking from every IFO and saved the "corrected" file, you will not have this problem anymore.
