DVD burning help.

I have a macbook and i just downloaded Mac the Ripper. I ripped a dvd perfectly fine and i tried to put it on a blank DVD-R. When i tried to burn it it says there was an error communicating with the disk drive. I tried it multiple times at different speeds and it says the same thing. How do i put the ripped dvd contents on a blank DVD-R so i can play it in a regular dvd player? Please help!

MacTheRipper doesn't have a Universal version yet for the Intel Macs (this may have changed since).

Try Handbrake, it's good for Intels.

MacTheRipper works perfectly fine on my MacBook.

That said, it's not a DVD burning program-- I believe you need to use Roxio Popcorn or something of that nature to write to a DVD.

For the DVD to work properly you need to burn the video_TS and audio_TS folders to the disc otherwise the DVD won't play in a regular DVD player.

When you have these folders on your desktop create a New Burn Folder from the File menu in Finder. Drag the ripped folder to the Burn Folder pop a DVD-R into the drive and drag the Burn Folder onto the Trash. The Trash icon will change and the burning will (should) begin.
