AutoGK crashes after selecting the input dir

[fellaw]

I hope this is the right forum for AutoGK problems. Hey, it's still a kind of Gordian Knot :D :D

I've got a problem with AutoGK: Right after browsing to my Input dir and pressing the OK button, AutoGK crashes with the following error:

Access violation at address 00404446 in Module AutoGK.exe. Read of Adress FFFFFFF9. It's still open after that error and the directory is set, but both the audio track list and subtitle track list are empty.

What could cause this and how could it be solved?

I installed AutoGK 0.5 with the default options, including VobSub, VDubMod and Avisynth 2.5.3. The error remained after updating to 0.7 beta. I used Smart Ripper 2.41 to copy an unprotected RC2 DVD to an NTFS parition.

My system:

Athlon TB 1.4
WinXP Pro + SP1 + all updates, newest drivers, etc.
VIA KT266 Chipset
512 MB DDR
plenty of hdd space free on all partitions (12/14/25/20)

I hope somebody can help me with that problem.

<edit>
only corrected some spelling and typing errors
Spell check would be a good idea for the forum, wouldn't it? ;)

Did you read a tutorial from my signature or doom9's guide?
It's important to use DVDDecrypter for ripping step. It should solve your problem.

I read the tut, but I didn't think that I could only use DVD Decrypter for ripping.
But why? I thought every ripper would copy the same information?!? The DVD wasn't protected by CSS anyway. I'll give DVDDecrypter a try.

You were right, it worked. Thanks!
