Error about DvdFab/MacTheRipper

[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.

Prior to posting this question, I searched for this message in the forum and didn't hit any previous posts, however, since posting this, I did find someone had posted a similar message previously and yes, it appears that my discs are counterfeit. The replies in the previous post points out that the discs are not encrypted and are single layer. I confirmed, these do not have encryption and are only single layer.

I bought these new from a Ebay vendor. The discs are pressed, not copied. The sleeves are printed, not copied, there are ad's included in the case and the cases are factory wrapped. Damn good counterfeits, but counterfeits none the less. I suspect that the vendor won't refund my money, but I'm going to try.

Thanks for the reply
