Hi,
I tried to rip a DVD on GNU/Linux (Ubuntu 10.04) using Thoggen to get a backup in Theora format. It worked fine, except that throughout the movie I've got a vertical black strip over the image.
Has anyone seen that before? Is this a problem with the ripper, or a kind of "poor man's copy protection scheme" with defect data that still plays fine on DVD players but produces that strip on the PC?
What can I do to get a correct backup? The DVD in question is not encrypted or copy protected otherwise, since it's a film a "semi-professional" made for us from an event we organized.
Thanks a lot!
Daniel
