DVDD Can't Find Files It Ripped To Do Backup Burn

[TomBrooklyn]

Why, after I ripped an Camera Instruction DVD with DVDD, can't DVDD see the files so it can burn them to a back-up disk?

The overall size is less than 4.7GB so it will easily fit onto one DVD-5.

The file list I got from the rip is:
VIDEO_TS
VIDEO_TS
VIDEO_TS.BUP
VTS_01_0
VTS_O1_0
VTS_01_0.BUP
VTS_01_1
VTS_01_2
VTS_01_3
VTS_01_4


By the way, why are there two instances of two files with the same name? On my system, each of these file pairs shows one file as being a VLC Media player file, and the other a DivX file.

DVDD, in File or IFO mode, will only read from the DVD Writer drive. In ISO mode, it won't read any of these files.

Did I need to make an ISO and fail to do so? Did I otherwise do the rip improperly?

I managed to do the backup via DVDShrink. The files opened easily and quickly there, they encoded in less than ten minutes, I had a burned DVD about 10 minutes later, and it verified good in four more minutes. Still, I wonder what went wrong with my attempts to use DVDD.

why are there two instances of two files with the same name?Because you somehow managed to display only one of THREE possible extensions: .BUP (displayed), .IFO (Not displayed), and .VOB (Not displayed)...

Seeing that DVDShrink is easier for you to use successfully, I'd suggest you stick with it ;>}

Yeah.... just change the option via Windows Explorer (well that's how you do it using XP) for hiding extensions of known file types. The rip is obviously fine, it's just Windows not displaying "known" extensions.

I don't know anything about DVDD.

It's not telling you what the files ARE, it's telling you with which program they're associated with when you try to open them. You can go into file types settings in your computer and change any extension to "say" it's whatever you want it to.

DVDD, in File or IFO mode, will only read from the DVD Writer drive.
Because it's looking for files to decrypt. It will only look in a physical drive or a virtual drive with an .ISO file mounted.

In ISO mode, it won't read any of these files.
If you mean when you tried to burn the files to a disk, no, it can't, but ImgBurn does have a build mode that will.

Did I need to make an ISO and fail to do so?
Basically, yes.
