Got Black hawk Down Area 4 to copy using LG 4081b. DVD-region Free is running.
Tried to Copy with Nero and it says that it is copy protected- cannot decrypt VOB file.
Tried DVD-Shrink but gave me an error at 98% (DVDShrink encoutered an error and cannot continue - Failed to read)
Tried DvDDecrypter and works fine.
But the question is should DVD-regionfree worked and removed the CCS?

I don't know a lot about DVD regionfree, but it could just have been that there was a slight smudge (aka fingerprint) or something on the outer edge. This has often been the case for me when Shrink can't read files. The usual workaround is to either clean the disc or try alternative ripping software. You have done this and it has worked, so that is why I;m thinking this might be the cause. Whatever happens, ripping first and loading this into shrink is probably a good habit to get into.
