Hello all,

First post here. I wanted to know if anyone has had the same trouble I'm having when ripping a DVD.

I bought the Reservoir Dogs 15th Anniversary Edition. This DVD comes in an aluminum case that is shaped like a gas can. The top comes off and inside is 2 DVD set enclosed in a large matchbook shaped case. I wanted to rip it to my computer to keep the case and DVD in their best condition. However, I am having trouble.

I am on a Mac and every piece of ripping software I use to try to back this up fails. None of them fail outright from the start. They all start off fine but each one gets to a certain point and then stalls or freezes there. None of the places where they freeze are consistent among the different softwares but they are all consistently freezing at the same point when attempted again in the same software. Example - Ripit freezes at 60% consistently, Mac DVD Ripper Pro freezes at 4% consistently, etc.

This disc is the only one out of my library that does this and it does it every time, sometimes causing the computer to freeze up. The disc surface is pristine. It has only been played once and has never been removed from the case except for this back-up attempt.

Has anyone else run into this issue on a Mac with this or another DVD? Have you found a way around this or an app that has proven successful for you?

Thanks in advance.

Peace
