[wlnelson]

chewy, did you beat "Nua Doi Huong Phan" of Thuy Nga.?

The discs I hate are when I get them from the library and they skip through half the movie... that's the price to pay for free rentals. I love how I can just tell them a disc is scratched and they will order a new one, however

[blutach]

Not that you try to copy them drf!

Here is my vote:

When a stranger calls and freedomland were difficult and a few unexpected messages but nowhere near as hard as the film gary mentioned in the thread he posted. I just bought underworld evolutions but did not get it today, the ups man was running late to my local video dealer and i had to go to work before he got there today. i have a feeling it will be in the same vein as the 2 I mentioned above.

Burrell84061 sent me a link for these movies and I can imagine sony has some fun instore for them. for those of you with big wallets let us know what you find.... http://www.sonypictures.com/homevideo/bluray/intro.html .
Those are some pretty impressive titles to come out with, some of those movies were hard to back up to begin with, not sure if I want to plunk $Money$ down for movies I already own however.

Terminator and Fifth Element possibly on BLU-Ray but rest am probably satisfied with go old fashioned dvd. I have yet to chime in about most protected dvd. Scratched dvd's are the hardest ones for me. Although i will admit madagascar gave me some trouble before i knew the way. haven't had a real challenge in awhile.
I just had a thought. It's pretty bad when you buy bad movies just to see if you can back them up. I can easily see myself doing that as copy protection and software evolves. I could even make a case for some of the movies i own now being soley because of forum questions.

Of course I don't, I just mean the worst disc is the one that can't be read... aka discs that are overplayed and full of scratches. No software can fix that.

[blutach]

I doubt that's what wlnelson is asking about thogh danny.

I agree with you, drf. My player will skip whole chapters if it gets to a scratch it can't read. My old one would just struggle through, maybe glitch and pixel a little, but keep going. My new one says "screw it" and jumps way ahead. real annoying. So far my worst is Underworld : Evolution as far as encryption goes.

Aeg,
Agree with you about scratches.
As for Underworld, DVDFab Decrypter v2979 goes thru it like hot knife thru butter. Wizard works also on this movie.

I tried Wizard but no joy. I am Vobblanker illiterate, so that doesn't help any. If found this guide but it kept telling me error check output folder or some damn thing. Anyone know of a better guide? This one was very basic and I followed it exactly. Need to brush up on things, I guess.
I checked the fab decryption with Vobblanker and didn't even see #26 on there, which is what i needed to blank. encoding it right now, have to see if it works. should, though.

I should say that this is Region 1, widescreen. I know from searching that there's lots of variability on this beast.

@ Aegmorgil

What was the problem in the wizard?

[wlnelson]

i Ripped "lords of dogtown - unrated)" no proplem
the rated ver has video distortion at beginning. Never got a perfect rip.
is the a PSL for this one around?

what are you sugestions on this hard one (For ME)

wlnelson

[Chewy]

video distortion at beginning

probably burn/media quality issues, probably not speed related

@ Aegmorgil

What was the problem in the wizard?

I used the wizard, generated the psl file, and it worked for two of the three bad spots. But it's almost as if it didn't get the last one, #26. I've heard that both #26 and #27 are bunk, but DVDd didn't give me #27. I think that may have been a different rip prog. (i've been looking around the forums on this one) I can't remember it exactly, but everything went fine. At the end of the Deep Analysis I believe I got an Out of Memory error, or possibly Bad Nav Structure or something.

I saw another post that said to Vobblank #26, but I'm not all that good with that prog. I used the short, easy guide and I believe it said "invalid output file" or something. I did it the same way as the guide, so I dunno.

Fab (latest update) worked fine and I burned it earlier today. I'd like to get around that issue if I can, as I prefer to use the Wizard wherever possible.
