Error about DvdFab/MacTheRipper

Post by rosede »

I just upgraded to v.1.18.2. I'm using a Windows 11 machine.

I just received a new stack of DVD's and when I attempt to rip the DVD's, I get the followin pop up
It appears that you are opening the disc processed by DvdFab/MacTheRipper which is known to produce damaged VOB files. Errors may follow - Please use original disc instead
These are new factor sealed discs. Is this an issue? Is there a setting I can tweak or adjust, or is just ignoring it okay? So far I have not had any issues. They've been ripping without issue.

Thanks

I've only seen it as a false positive, but it can be a strong hint at having gotten bootlegs.
