y do some dvds take 2hrs to rip yet some the same size only 30mins? is it a hardware problem?

[fritzi93]

Could you give some examples, i.e. the titles of some slow-ripping discs? Also, which ripper are you using? (By any chance is it DVDFabDecrypter?)

[guns1inger]

Have you ever updated the firmware on the drive you use to rip ?

every dvdrom/dvd burner has different read speeds. the dvd burner you have may only be able to read at slower speeds. most new dvdroms have faster read speeds and there are dvdroms that can use hacked firmware to speed up the reading process.
