Drive RipLock Bypass

Post by LGans316 »

Hi Guys,

Many of you may know this but just wanted to share this.

I noticed that RipLock was preventing ripping Blu-rays at more than 2X speed. I pressed the eject button on the drive whilst ripping was in progress, error message popped up, pushed the tray back in, waited for the disc to be read, pressed escape, restarted the rip and to my surprise it is now ripping at full read speed.

So it appears like this will serve as a nice cheat to bypass RipLock.

Which drive are you using? I assume by your handle it is an LG but we know what Assumptions do, right?

It is Matshita BD-CMB UJ172 S 1.00 (laptop drive). By following this trick, I am now able to down the rip times by 20-25%.

Same trick works with my external BD writer as well.

I don't mean to bring up a dead post, but what ripping software are you using? I'm assuming MakeMKV considering the forum this is on but I've only heard of this trick being used on AnyDVD.
