I am trying to back-up some DVD's I bought.. there are some DVD's that just wont rip becuase of the way they are encoded. I am trying to use handbrake and MTR. Is there any way around this?

through handbrake I dont get any error.. it just starts and then it stops saying its done.. this is a common problem with some dvd's but Im just wondering if there is a way around it or some sort of program I can buy that will fix this issue..

With HandBrake, you have to enable the queue and then add the task before ripping ...

MTR has never given me a problem, it even deals with dvds that have intentionally bad vob fiels on it very well.

Yup.. Not to mention you can encode a dvd for multiple (if not all), regions
