There's no secret at all, there have been literally hundreds of posts with all sorts of solutions.
Read this: http://forum.doom9.org/forum-rules.htm paying particular attention to "step 1."

Head games. I have put in a search for Disney and get nothing. I have browsed thru FAQs and saw nothing. You must have no answer for my question, so thanks.

You seem very brief with your request, so I'll assume you've done the obligatory DVD Decrypter. Disney being a bastardised company employ RipGuard protection, so try RipItForMe, DVDFab Decrypter, or if you can afford it AnyDVD, to get rid of this idiotic copy protection.

I did a search for "Disney DVD" in the current forum ("Decrypting") and, in the first 10 results, I got this one (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=138436&highlight=disney+dvd) and this other one (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=136918&highlight=disney+dvd), for instance .. both threads suggests using the very same programs which Inventive Software (again) told you about ;)

setarip_old, Thanks, but what I am finding is that Disney movies have gone an extra mile to encrypt their movies. I tried to decrypt National Treasure 2, with no success. I just figure that hassleling over newly released dvds from Disney aren't worth bothering with, if one wants to make copies. Thanks. setarip for your time.

"National Treasure 2" presented no problem to any of the following:
RipIt4Me, DVDFab HD Decrypter, DVD95Copy Pro...

@mtkid106
Instead of arguing the point, why not try the advice provided? Next post, I wanna see something like this:
"I tried that but it didn't work, because .... Can someone help me please?"

Decrypting is one thing, but if you're still using DVD Decrypter or the free version of DVDFab Decrypter, you will need another program like Nero Recode to compress the file size down to a single layer DVD and burn it. Some nefarious authors have figured out how to get your memory to overflow before the burn will complete. Looks like they are doing this with an instruction in the first few frames of the movie, possibly someething that causes I, P, B, or unseen title frames to be retained in memory that is not released, like maybe for the whole show. This in turn causes more and more memory to be used as the burn process runs. If you have enough RAM (3 to 12 GB, depending on the DVD) you can burn anyway. If not, try editing off the first few frames of the show (usually just black frames) brfore you burn, then keep an eye on memory usage with task manager during the burn. It's normal for memory useage to rise as the burn begins, but if it doesn't level off and you see you'll soon run out, remove a few more frames from the very first title. Since I don't use the same program to Decrypt and Burn, I can't say how this problem might affect an all-in-one decrypt/burn approach. This is one of Disney's favorite tricks, but others have also used it.

i'm pretty sure that DVDfab free decrypter allows you to rip the whole DVD and rip a DVD9 to a DVD5. but that's all it does. it should remove all copy protection, but it doesn't allow you to control quality and a majority of its other options(such as all of its ripping to mobile options) are disabled.
+even if it only let you rip to DVD9, you could just use DVDshrink and reauthor :p

No matter what software you're using, Disney and some other DVD makers have come up with a way to protect their content from being "burned" to another DVD, even AFTER the decryption process seems to have successfully completed. If the software you're using fails to copy the disk, You need to know WHY in order to fix the problem. If you're not having any problems making your backup copies, don't worry about it.

@JTEENo matter what software you're using, Disney and some other DVD makers have come up with a way to protect their content from being "burned" to another DVD, even AFTER the decryption process seems to have successfully completed.Certainly not Disney (which simply uses a couple of different iterations of "RipGuard" copy protection), nor any other studio that I know of, has yet to come up with such protection...It seams my point was not clear.Your point is not valid.
