Audio is missing while ripping DVD - Pls help !!!

[lal]

Hi,

I am trying to copy a DVD to hard drive. I tried SmartRipper but is saying "Searching for key" and not going any further.

DVD Decrypter is ripping fine but the audio is missing. I tried
stream processing and I see the audio track as "Audio - LPCM / 2ch". Is there any special setup for this kind of audio track?
After ripping the entire DVD, DVD Decrypter is giving the following
info in "VTS_03 - Stream Information.txt" :

0xA0 - Audio - LPCM / 2ch / 48kHz / 16bit / LBA: 39 / PTS: 00:00:00.223 / Delay: -66ms
0xE0 - Video - MPEG-2 / 720x480 (NTSC) / 4:3 / LBA: 1 / PTS: 00:00:00.290 / Delay: 0ms

Apprecaite any inputs on this problem. I've ripped my DVDs before
but never had this problem.

Thanks.

I've always used clad dvd to copy dvds straight to my hard drive never had a problem take less than an hour to copy and this machine is slow

If you MUST use SmartRipper, make it a habbit to open the DVD through a software DVD player before (to unlock the disk), so that SmartRipper will succesfully rip it.

In some cases SmartRipper fails even without telling you so (found that out after 100+ succesful rips). DVDDecrypter is also good and free. I use it now for DVD->HD ripping and switch back to SmartRipper for further ripping.

I do unlock the drive with PowerDVD player before I start ripping. I did rippping many time successfully. But this particular DVD is giving a problems. I guess it is because the audio is LPCM.

Can you please tell me where I get Claddvd from? I tried http://clonead.cjb.net and the page is not there anymore, I guess.
