Star Trek 2009 copy protection?

[Browncoat]

Anyone else having difficulty backing up their Star Trek 2009 DVD? Is it some form of new protection used?

[redwudz]

Which decryption program are you using? And is it updated?

[Browncoat]

Tried DVDecrypter, DVDFab4 and AnyDVDHD 6.5.9.5

[isapc]

Ripped the Bluray version last night.Dont ask me why but im having less problems ripping bluray disks than ordinary DVDs these days

[Browncoat]

Finally backed up. AnyDVD HD struggled but did eventually manage to rip.

Wow...this is out in Australia already? Official release in US is not until Nov. 17th :<

Yes it is:

Visit any movie or PC fair and the Region-1 disc isn't hard to come by either even here in England which is officially Region-2.
(I'm talking genuine studio pressings with original packaging, not any kind of bootleg)

[Noahtuck]

So your answer to redwudz question would be no, you are not using the latest version of any ripping software

Maybe that's why you are having trouble with a new release

Cool for you guys. I have the Blu pre-ordered from Amazon so I'll just be waiting. It's one of the few movies in recent years I saw multiple times in theatre. Can't wait.

Star Trek 2009 DVD is one tough sucker to backup. But not impossible. Try RipIt4Me in "Full disc" mode. Because of the wierd title structure on the disc, you'll need a spare 40GB of HDD space to create the initial file, even though dual layer DVDs only hold ~8.5GB. Once you've created the file, use DVD Shrink 32 in ReAuthor mode to open it. You'll find (in the Aust. version anyway) 99 titles and about 10 menus. Title 21 is the only one you'll need (as it's the only one containing the movie in correct chapter sequence) and it can be backed up to your HDD / media player / archive.

"Of course, DVD back ups should only be performed on DVDs that you actually own, and only for your own personel use. Please respect the rights of the copyright owner and never copy rented / borrowed movies"

I expect DVDFab HD Decrypter will probably crack it by the time it's released in the US (Nov 17), or soon thereafter.

Its out on region 2, ie Greece, Cyprus, since yesterday. Thats long before the region 1 release. Happens sometimes, dunno why. Anyhows, the latest DvdFabHD 6125, ain't making a dent on it so far. Tough cookie.

[cyflyer]

OzyOzyOzyOiOiO's system with Ripit4Me worked, sort of. Very longwinded, and You end up with umpteen titles , title 1 to 19 and 78 to 97, all with the movie and all with slightly varying length and file size. You just got to figure out which one is the right one, which in the case of the region 2 version is title 19.

Hi I live in Mexico... and Star Trek its here! I got it in Block Busters, I was trying to backup the movie for my son, I dont wanted scratched, so he can play with it and remove all the menus... so far I have try DVD clone and DVDFAb.. no luck still dont get it it mixes chapters, wired encryption... any ideas?

I've managed to rip the Region-1 disc with a recent version DVDFab so I know it to be possible. Getting rid of the region-code commands is another matter altogether.

The menu structire of this title is quite unusual and I would advise against removing any parts you're not 100% certain of.

[jman98]

Gotta love Hollywood. So the entire world now has the movie EXCEPT those of us in region 1 who still have to wait 3 weeks for it? Although if we lived in the UK we could somehow buy the region 1 disc and it's not a bootleg but it's still not going to be available here for 3 more weeks. Yeah, that's for sure going to stop those pesky bootleggers to screw over region 1 consumers. Oh wait - it won't.

[skepticus]

Hi ntscuser, the menus structure is weired, on DVDfab, if I try to burn only the movie, I will get a ton of section, each with 15 chapters, of you see each one, on the mini viewer, the chapters are all mixed up, if I try to burn the whole disk, it will compressed it to 15%, I just dont get it?

the only way for me is to copy the movie on the fly and make a new DVD

[skepticus]

Forgot...
this a picture of the DVDFAB menus from the movie... to many just dont get it!

[OzyOzyOzyOiOiOi]

Judging from cyflyer's comment, it looks as though the working title varies according to region. i.e. title 21 in region 4 , title 19 in region 2. Might be an idea to play the DVD in a regular DVD player first (aka not a computer) and use the display / info button while the main movie is playing, to see which of the 99 titles is being used in your region. Then follow the directions on my previous thread. ^

[leghorn]

To find out which title to copy I actually run the DVD in PowerDVD (will work with any other DVD player), select Main Movie and watch. Then the play stats show the current running time and - which title is being played. I guess this should make it easier to choose the right title.

[cyflyer]

Leghorn, thats exactly what I did. Weird that DVDfab 6125 won't rip it, but DVDfab 6120 will....

Nero showtime points to title 21 which is vts_07 group... for au

RipIt4Me + dvddecrypter ... process all 41gig to folder (this may take a while because of the fakes) ... do not let RipIt4Me perform final clean.

Run vobblanker to cleanup all non genuine titles

Navigational commands my need adjustment using pgcedit prior to burn

It certainly is a beauty but not undo able

Ps :

The movie starts from cell 9 in vts_07 ... blank them as well

Rating : 8.5 (camera scene shakes and annoying camera glare in many) ... should have shot the film crew

[ntscuser]

I cloned the entire disc 1:1 ratio DVD9 with Fab (free) version 6.1.2.5, not just the main movie.

Use VobBlanker or similar to remove any unwanted features. DVDRebuilder to shrink. PGCedit to clean-up afterwards.

First try here but your screenshot helped me. Here is a similar screenshot. I did copy the Star Trek movie only by selecting main movie then selecting title 21 as seen on the screenshot. I tried 2 and 4 earlier but got the chapters all jumbled. Hope this helps others.

[ntscuser]

Main Movie is Title 27 on the R1 release if that's any help to anyone?

[skepticus]

I manage to rip it, what I did was CLONE the movie with DVDfab and DVDidle Pro, make an .ISO file, then I mounted it on a virtual drive using MagicIso, all the protection were remove on that process, then I used DVDFab 6.1 again (to burn it, copy, split, Main Movie.. etc...), then all the rest of dummy Titles just disappeared! just showing the good ones!

cheers I hope it helps for the future when people form the US gets it!!!

[jimdagys]

A quick Google search and I find a huge number of people have tried to put this movie on the online storage sites, but in every case that I checked, the files had been deleted. (I use passive voice here because I don't know who deleted the files). This makes me interested. It must be a very good movie. Worth getting.

I've ripped the VTS_07 files associated with title 21 using dvd fab 6120, but cant get the files to work in dvd shrink 3.2. What should i be using?

[robert47]

Star Trek 2009 (I am using Vista 32bit)

1. Use only Dvdfab 5 to Rip
2. Use main Movie Feature (not full disc)
3. Program will defualt to title 24 ( this is file is not to be used)
4. Choose File 21
5. Once file is ripped: Drop all files into Nero...
6. I was up all night figuring this one out...enjoy

DVDRebuilder as mentioned by ntscuser shouldn't have any problems

Dvdshrink is outdated and ShrinkTo5Basic will encounter problems (title video 0 size)

We do try to avoid propriety software as not everybody will have access to such products.
