MakeMKV ran for well over 12 hours after getting about 1/5 of the way through Saw 3, which MacTheRipper3.0r14m and Handbrake Version 0.9.4 i386 (2009112300) also fail to rip. If I can't convert this to AppleTV format then I can't watch it. I am getting sick of Sony/Disney. Good thing I bought these at Costco. Return, return, return. Maybe the bastards will learn to stop obstructing fair use, if they get enough returns.

PS: Thanks for all your hard work to enable us to transcode our stuff to our myriad devices!

Ok, I didn't realize that I was still running .0.2 versions old. I just ensured that MakeMKV 1.6.2 was running (sidenote: I had to manually kill some rogue processes before I could delete the 1.6.0 version and install the new one).

SAW3Unrated still fails, only now MakeMKV just IGNORES the main feature and claims that it can only rip the gorram advertisings!!!

PS: here is the log trying to rip via the Plextor BD USB Model PX-B310U drive.

Well, it looks like it just freezes at.... oh, wait... it's still adding to the log. I'll post more when it freezes again, or finishes.

It looks frozen again, here's what it has created so far: http://pastebin.ca/1971020
[awiating more logs, but not hopeful]


PS: I cannot discover ANY way to "set the region code of PX-B310U" I found some windoze utilities online that might do it, but I don't have windoze. Any ideas? Is this the problem ripping this horrible disc?

Thanks!

Hi!

I've had this problem before. It turned out that there was a tiny amount of damage on the disc that I'd never noticed and it was on the menu system of the disc. When I tried to play the DVD back in my stand alone player, if I let the menu run to the end it would crash right before it was supposed to loop.

Any chance your disc has a similar issue?

Also, good choice of drive, mine has been rock solid so far.

Well, it's possible, but since I don't have a stand-alone DVD player I can't find out. hrmmm. I ran DVDPlayer, and it forced me to "set the region". I wonder if MakeMKV fails on a drive that hasn't had it's region code set?

Interesting. DVDPlayer is playing the disc! I just tried MacTheRipper on it again, and I get the same error message:

"WARNING! This Disk Is Protected With RipGuard And ARccOS And Has Badly Mastered IFOs. Suggested To Rip Main Feature Only.."

I'll try MakeMKV again, and Handbrake, but it doesn't look like setting the region code did anything to help. I hope it didn't break things.

whaddaya know?! MacTheRipper is acting like it's ripping the "main feature". So maybe I can watch this stupid movie on something other than my little Mac screen after all! (crossing fingers)

I hope my thrash here helps to improve MakeMKV to the point that Sony/Disney/etc. can go suck themselves.

Please send IFO files per http://www.makemkv.com/faq/item/8/catid/6

I'm not sure what you want here. Do you want me to drag & drop the VOB files from the mounted DVD, and packaged those up? Do you want me to package up the VOB files that MacTheRipper managed to extract in "Main Feature Only" mode? MakeMKV dies on this disk and never produces anything, so I'm not sure how I can help, other than to suggest you get Saw3 and try ripping it. I did post my logfiles above... didn't I?
yeah, here: http://pastebin.ca/1971020

I'm happy to help, but not sure what else I can do here. Let me know.

Cheers!

All IFO files, not VOB, from the mounted disc.

Mike, did you get those IFO files? Mine also stops at around 1:31:36, although the MKV reports it's length as 1:42:45 give or take a second. Playing the MKV also abruptly stops at exactly the same place.
