Ripping DVD's....
 

My buddy just bought Knocked Up and I want to copy it or at least get it on my computer. Any program suggestions?

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

Search for AnyDVD in Google. You get a full functioning program on a 21 day trial. You can crack it or just reload it every 21 days.

That is just a driver which removes the encryption on the DVD. You will need a program that compresses the information so that it will fit on a single layer DVD. You can also just go Dual layer, but who needs that.

I personally use DVD Shrink for burning and re-authoring.

X2, DVD Shrink still handles most of the DVDs we want to rip.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

dvdshrink is what I use for most of the ----, except the lionsgate dvds that have that funky structure...for that I use ripit4me i think it's called

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

AoA DVD ripper. Trust the man.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

rip it 4 me ftw. i burned 4 dvd's last night.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

I dont even bother copying it.. I just d/l what I want off utorrent, then burn it with windows dvd :6

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

DVD Shrink is the best free utility for copying dvd's, good thing is that its free! If u are a lil more into the whole digital media bullshit use hand break. It rips the movie into an MP4 file using h.264 codec and i think acc for the audio. Good thing is that it doesnt compress it like dvd shrink, so u get original quality (u cant really tell unless u have a huge HDTV)

DVD looks like ---- on a small HDTV.

The only thing that looks good on HD is Bluray or HD-DVD, followed by HD broadcast, followed by DVD, then regular NTSC broadcasts...

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

DVDs look great on my 37" HD. It only makes sense to get an HD-DVD player if you are about 50" or above and sit relatively close to the tv.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

Dunno how close you mean, but my 50" from about 8 feet away, the artifacts in the mpeg2 dvd was quite noticeable. Especially on the darker scenes.

DVD might look great, but put two of the same tv next to each other and play the same movie on DVD and an HD format. The difference is big.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

Yea I'm talking closer than 10 feet. The difference isn't that big on mine, I've watched HD and normal DVDs. Now for TV broadcasts, HD is where it's at.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

fa sho.

I remember watching the superbowl in hd, then flipping back to the analog channel to compare. BLEH

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

I have a 50" rear lcd projection(1080p). With the up converter they look decent but there is a lot of rainbowing with colors in dark scene and some pixelations. My mac up converts as well when i watch h.264 and avi and it still not that great. I have a couple of HD movies in .mkv formarts which are either 720p or 1080i and it looks great! Cant wait to get my self a ps3 to use the bluray player. It is said that for the holidays a 40gb model with spiderman 3 is going to be released for $400.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

The shitty part about seeing ---- in HD is once I got my HD TV watching low-def quality ---- sucks ass.

Like watching color tv vs. black and white for me. :X

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

What the ---- is a rear LCD projection? ???

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

I use ripit4me also which makes it pretty easy. For me its a whole day process though, I usually start it running when I go to bed. Then set it to shrink when I get up, then set it burning when I come home for work. :(

Mabye if I get a DVD player to go along with my DVD burner it will be faster (2 drive setup)?

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

dvdshrink gets the job done here

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

i have a SXRD 50a2000 i believe. Its like a DLP, ut the picture is made by an LCD and light expands the picture. While a DLP makes the imade through a color wheel and the mirrors.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

3 LCD or a single one? Only thing that I'd rather have than my homemade ghetto rigged projector is one with 3 LCDs. DLP I can see the rainbow effect and it's annoying as ----.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

its a tabletop projection tv. basically the same as a dlp.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

Its better than the reg sony 3lcd, but ill have to look into it.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

You could also queue up fourteen dozen sweet torrents for the DVD .iso files and not worry about it... Once they get freight training you end up with 3-10 completed per day.

On that note, I just bought another 500 gig HD.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

any problems with your ISP? I got flagged twice, they said one more and they can cancel my service. they said my IP was responsible for 80ish gigs of traffic in a couple of weeks. They are setting up fake torrents in SOCAL to bust people for illegal downloading. If one of these people can download from you they can also bust you.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

No problems. I think my ISP doesn't give a ----. If they did I'd whip out the wireless gear and get busy.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

Im in the process of getting the right wireless gear to hack the neighbor's WEP and WPA. Does anyone know of any software hardware combos? Doesnt matter if its for mac or windows, since i have both.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

netsearch. :(

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

ehh, it requires a prismII chipset, which is a wireless B card. Which is a really slow connection. It doesnt always work on a wireless G. All my computers have them built in and im trying not to spend money. Kismac is the same thing but alot more user friendly. None of my cards support packet injection. Maybe ill just switch to DSL and see how that goes.

Re: Ripping DVD's....
 

YOu dont have to use that style of attack. There are plenty of cards out there that support cracking on the g side.
