• 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.

I'm having trouble with the aforementioned application... It just freezes and stops working 2 seconds after I open it, EVERY TIME... I have an external DVD burner so I thought that might be the problem, but even when it's unplugged the app just won't work!!! Any help would be appreciated.

I would open the Console.app in the /Applicaitons/Utilties folder, run MtR and then review any errors writen the the console logs. Maybe it will give a hint.

Another option is to remove the application and the preference file for it, download it again, and try reinstalling.

Delete the associated preference files and try it again...
Home/Library/Preferences/ and then something like com.handbrake.m02.plist

I think the problem was due to something going wrong with rosetta... I got version 3 So no problems anymore... Thanks for the help, though.
