• 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.

Help - DVD stuck inside

MBP
Despite upgrading to Toast 8, there still seems to be a problem with hardware regarding burning of disks.

Now, to make things worse, my MBP doesn't even recognise there is a DVD inside so there is nothing to eject. I have opened DVD player and pressed Apple key + E as well as the eject key but it is acting as if there is no disk.

Is there an emergency procedure for this?

Cheers

Reboot your MBP and just after you hear the chime, press and hold the mouse button.

That should spit it out for you...
