• The Mac-Forums Community Guidelines (linked at the top of every forum) are very clear, we respect US law and court precedence when it comes to legality of activity.

    Therefore to clarify:
    • You may not discuss breaking DVD or BluRay encryption, copying, or "ripping" commercial, copy-protected DVDs.
    • This includes DVDs or BluRays you own. Even if you own the DVD or BluRay, it is still technically illegal under the DMCA to break the encryption. While some may argue otherwise, until the law is rewritten or the US Supreme Court strikes it down, we will adhere to the current intent of the law.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying unprotected movies or homemade DVDs.
    • You may discuss ripping or copying tools in the context that they are used for legal purposes as outlined in this post.

hey guys, i just got casino royale and for some reason i can't make a backup. i ran it through handbrake (several times), but it stops at about 2 or 3 minutes. tried to run it thru mac the ripper, and got some error message. i remember the same thing happening when i tried to back up my talledega nights dvd.

has anyone experienced similar problems with certain newer DVDs? any suggestions?

I run into the same issues with some of my newer DVD's.. I have tried every freeware app and it still won't work.. I would love to see some suggestions on how to get around this.
