Hi-

It just means that the DVD you're decrypting is a different region from the region of your drive. It's no problem (except for being a bit slower). Just go ahead with the rip. I assume you're using DVD Decrypter for this-Smart Ripper just freezez on out of region DVDs for me.

You might check http://www.firmware.fr.st/ to see if your DVD-ROM can be patched to make it region-free.

Thanks for the above. I went onto that page but could not find what to do I have a pioneer-104 dvd rewriter using version 1.10 software that much I have found out. I dont know if it is an original one or a sony one as I bought it oem in uk.

I have currently started the decriptor thing and it is creating a iso on my hd what happens next please and what happens if it is to big?

Sorry the questions are so newbie but I have read some faqs and guides but i just dont understand them and the software they use I cant find either like the spruce meastro thing.

Thanks in advance

Ok think I have got the hang of this now but am not getting audio can get picture but no audio. Progress is small but rome was not built in a day as the saying goes.

The audio IS there, it's just not being picked up by the player.

How do I get it to play it in the player please

Just put your original DVD in the drive, select mode, iso, read and write the image. Make sure the drive where you are saving the image is NTFS. Then, just select Mode, iso, write and you'll have an identical copy of your DVD, and region free.

There is no way the audio can't work. Try on other stand alones. You can download PowerDVD XP 4 so you can try the DVD on your PC.

Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it!
