I know this probably isn't the best forum to ask this question but I don't frequent any Windows forums, so here goes.... I'm in need of a DVD ripping program. This is for legal reasons, I assure you (rather than FedEx'ing DVDs of sessions and consultation meetings back and forth between here and Seattle, I just want to rip the DVD and leave it on a server). I don't even know where to begin with DVD ripping on a Mac much less on a Windows machine. What I'm hoping for is a balance between speed, size and quality. Any recommendations?
BTW, these are therapy sessions so there isn't a lot of movement and sound could even be mono if that matters. TIA. |

OpenShiiva or Handbrake. I prefer the former, but it hasn't been updated in forever. Handbrake is easier to use. If all you want is to make the CSS go away, Mac The Ripper does that just fine...

A single page loaded with all free rippers, descramblers (in case your stuff is encoded with CSS which it wouldn't be), etc. Maybe you're the jackass cuz you can't even come up with relevant search terms to help you find what you need. No, your response makes you a jackass. Your lack of search skills just makes you a dumbass. |

Play nice boys!
And in torifile's defense, he is a doctor, hardly dumbass material. No one here is, so lets all just calm down and have fun ripping DVDs. Come waste your time with me |

Nowhere in his first post did he mention he had tried a search. I just get tired of lazy slackers who don't bother to do a search and expect other people to do all their information gathering for them. I've been through the user agreement again, and I can't find any exemptions to name-calling for Drs., DMBand0026. Maybe you can point me to that regulation? |

BTW, maybe you need to re-read the posts in this thread, it was DMBand0026 who busted out that you were a Dr. I went off on you calling me a jackass. Like I said, if you had mentioned you had done a search but hadn't found anything useful, I would've posted the link and been done with it. I'm just used to so many people in many forums expecting other users to do their research for them, and today it struck a nerve. No, I'm not going to do a background check on you, as you obviously didn't do any research on me. Also, I can't find anything in my first post calling you names. You call me jackass, then when I retort, your backup crew starts telling me you're a Dr. so you must be smart and I must be out of line. Then you come back telling me I must be a newbie because I didn't defer to you or something? What's that about? If you can't even put in your post that you tried to find something on your own, I'm supposed to get this information through some kind of psychotelepathy or something? Whatever. |

I thought that since you didn't know my usual style (not asking a question without having done a search myself) that you must be new. Nothing else. Quote:

You're correct that I stereotyped you originally as someone too lazy to punch in some search terms at your local Google textbox. My bad, and like you said, my problem (if that's what yp meant). I was thinking about this last night, and I'm thinking, the easiest way to go about this might be to use Disk Utility (located in /Applications/Utilities) and use that to make a DVD/CD Master .dmg file from your DVD. It would take much less time then ripping, since there's no CSS to crack. Alternatively, you could also use Roxio Toast if you already have a copy. Either way, since there's no CSS, making a disk image would take much less horsepower to generate. Give it a shot! The worst that could happen is you waste 5-10 minutes.

I need a Windows package. One that's so simple a computer user who thinks windows is great could figure out. Like a program your parents could use. Maybe there isn't much demand for something like this but it'd be really useful for me.... Oh well, the search continues...

try www.dvdrhelp.com for windows, mac or linux dvd ripping and editing solutions. This would be really simple to do with Toast 6.07.....

WOW this thread is like several months old. To answer your question though since you asked so nicely. cdcovers.cc is a good place to start. Just remember though, removing the copy protection from commercial DVDs is illegal and not generally a topic we like to help with. Torifile was looking to rip non-commercial content.
Welcome, by the way. What Adobe Updater‽ What‽ What‽ WHAT‽ |

check out afterdawn.com's software portion. That is just the DVD rippers section, that might be of some help.

Wow, I was a total asshat last summer. That must've been some tack I stepped on when I got out of bed that morning.
Apologies again torifile. *damn* |
