Problems ripping Region 1 DVD....ideas?
 

Hi all

I have a fairly hard to get DVD, First Descent, and want to rip it to my computer so I can watch on my itouch when I'm in the Alps. Usually I use Handbrake for any ripping which has, so far, worked perfectly.

The issue is that, when using Handbrake, I get a message of 'no valid source found'. To combat this I downloaded MactheRipper, when this rips it there are 'bad segments'. I've read somewhere that Sony DVDs corrupt their discs so it's more difficult to rip them, could this be the case? It's produced by Alliance Atlantis

one other problem could be that it's a region 1 DVD, although I don't think that matters here as I can see it on my desktop and am able to access it for MactheRipper or Handbrake to select...

HELP!!! any ideas?!
