A super easy way to backup your copy protected DVDs!
This program is a freeware utility that serves to help you backup your copy protected DVDs.
Recently released DVDs are now very often equipped with stronger copy protections - such as ARccOS™ and RipGuard DVD - that programs like DVD Shrink or DVD Decrypter have problems handling.
With the help of RipIt4Me, ripping these DVDs will be very easy. The program is fully automated and the wizard will guide you thru all the necessary steps involved. If you prefer, there is also a true "1-Click" mode that will perform all the involved steps automatically for you

Sounds good. I await the reviews.

Well I tried it and I like it,you only have to set the output in DVDShrink and you have a two-click backup.The only problem I can see is if DVDDecrypter(with PSL file) can't rip the newer forms of copy-protection,in that case I will have to use DVDFab Decrypter.

Say goodbye to all other rippers!

Apparently, it uses DVDDecrypter as the ripping engine, and FixVTS to clean up the files. That's fine, as it's meant for beginners.
I assume it sets DVDDecrypter to ignore read errors and shove in dummies, which is pretty much what DVDFabDecrypter does. IIRC, Fab does 4 retries. Then FixVTS to clean up the "junk". There's no mention of it generating a protected sectors list (PSL), which is the way to get a truly "clean" rip of an ARccOS disc. Nevertheless, it does have the advantage over Fab in doing a cleanup. [shrugs]
[EDIT] It should be okay, and Moviegeek has provided the first review.
Guess I'll try it too, as if I don't have enough rippers...
Pull! Bang! Darn! -
Just tried it on a Ripguard disc. No problem.
Checked the log, it DOES create a PSL file, so ignore my objections above. This one's looking quite good, and is rather more noob-friendly than PgcEdit.
[EDIT] It's so simple, you'd think a guide would be unnecessary, but here it is:

An interesting discussion here:
http://forum.digital-digest.com/showthread.php?t=67918
Reported to work on Ultraviolet and Underworld. Did Narnia for me, nice clean rip. Funny thing is, it's very quick, considerably faster than the PSL2 Plugin Wizard for PgcEdit.
Looks like a real find.
Pull! Bang! Darn! -
While I'm a big believer in "If it sounds too good to be true...", this program certainly seems to be the exception to the rule. Even though I had already successfully used the PSL2 Plugin for PgcEdit on my Ultraviolet disk, since it has the newest protection attempt I ran RipIt4Me on it for a comparison. After it completed, I opened the rip in assorted programs known to be picky. All of them seemed perfectly happy with the rip. PgcEdit doesn't even offer to fix anything.
This program not only uses the genius of other programs to complete the rip, but is also doing quite a bit of work itself. As an example, I couldn't figure out why the DvdDecrypter ripping part wasn't putting up the standard error reporting message boxes when it hit a bad section. Reading the log after it finished, I found that the program itself is parsing the dvd and creating a PSL2 before it ever calls DvdDecrypter. After the DvdDecrypter stage, it did a structure cleanup all on its' own, before it calls FixVTS.
It's fast, easy to use, appears to do an excellent job, and is free. What more can you ask for? -
Sounds good - has anyone submitted it as a new tool?

Nice tool, will be interesting to see upcoming versions.

You might want to check the new program RipIt4Me described in this thread https://forum.videohelp.com/viewtopic.php?t=303745 It sounds like a very well done product. The problem with DVD Fab Decrypter is thats it't pretty crude and heavy handed.

Very well put. But hey, it's free. :POriginally Posted by SCDVD
RipIt4Me, well, can't see anything wrong with it. I wish the scroll bar on the RipIt4Me window would work when the associated programs are running. A minor quibble. Gunna be watching for user opinions on this one.Pull! Bang! Darn! -

How do you mean that? I don't use DVDFab decrypter myself. What does it do (or not do) that you object to?Originally Posted by SCDVD

One of the biggest problems is that if there is a real read error on the source disc, it ignores it. This can result in mangled and unuseable output files. It also doesn't do a cleanup which can result in VOBs that are full of black and do nothing but use up space. DVD Shrink can also have a problem with the output files.Originally Posted by fritzi93 -

I use DVDFab Decrypter on scratched discs when DVDDecrypter or IsoBuster can't read them.
BTW...nice update of FixVTS jeanl,the new version works perfectly.
-
Sometimes a sledge hammer is a very useful tool but they aren't generally that good for watch repair. If there is no other way to read a disc because of scratches etc., DVD Fab Decrypter can save the day. But since ignoring real read errors often results in a damaged or corrupt file, the copy may need to be repaired.

Thanks man!

The program works for me, but I have to disable AnyDVD first or else it will error with the following messaage and shut down.
RipIt4Me has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Used Sony's Legend of Zorro for the test rip. Went through all the steps and the resulting back-up seems to play fine. -
I just did Ultraviolet and I must say that the ifo's are beautiful. Even PgcEdit had no complaints. It's fun playing with new toys!
Once you have a beautiful backup, all that's left is a beautiful burn(which is another topic). -
Version 1.1.0.0 has been released! I'm indeed liking this program

Is there a changelog somewhere for the new version?Originally Posted by r3n4udVersion 1.1.0.0 has been released! I'm indeed liking this program
I'm curious what got improved/fixed.
[EDIT] Damned if I can find a changelog, but a member at the digital-digest forum posted this:
Version 1.1.0.0
* Added code that detects cells that have been erroneously removed. The code warns the user if there's a chance that the cell was removed because the DVD was scratched.
* Fixed a bug in the code that checks for Decrypter on startup.
Right out of the gate this program is sophisticated. The erroneous deletion of cells was always one of my gripes with DVDFabDecrypter.Pull! Bang! Darn! -

rvelez, heh, I was editing my post while you were replying. :P

I noticed something strange between 1.0.0.0 version and 1.1.0.0 version of RipIt4Me. The first version will show "You're using DVD Decrypter version: 3.5.4.0" each time I open the program but on version 1.1.0.0, it only shows the Decrypter message the first time (when the .ini and log files are set up) but never again after that. Has anyone else noticed this? I do have "Check DVD Decrypter at startup" selected on both. I'm attempting to include a pic of both versions, I hope it comes through.

So where did this new program come from ?

The changelog states that this was removed.

It seems the author prefers to remain anonymous.Originally Posted by cyflyer
Checking around a bit, the only reported problems (so far) turn out to be operator error:
1) Not setting paths correctly to DVDDecrypter, FixVTS, and DVDShrink. Or even failure to have on one's computer any/all of the above.
:P
2) Having AnyDVD or DVD43 running when trying to use RipIt4Me.
As to paths, if you already have the required programs on your computer, RipIt4Me finds them automatically.Pull! Bang! Darn! -
Well, I checked again and version 1.0.0.0 always shows the ""You're using DVD Decrypter version: 3.5.4.0" message while version 1.1.0.0 only shows it the first time (when the .ini and log files are created in C:\Documents and Settings\...\Application Data\RipIt4Me) and no more after that. Could someone check to see if they do or do not get the message on 1.1.0.0 version (after you open and close the program a few times) so I don't sound like I'm crazy? Thanks.Originally Posted by rvelez

That's correct. It checks the first time. Since Decrypter is no longer updated, once it detects you have the latest version, there's no need to check it again.
