help force dvd contents to HD. ok i have a imac g3 400MHz 128MB ram and i have 3 DVDs of backups, the computer can play and read DVD's no problems but when im trying to copy all the contents of the DVD to the finder i get a error when ever it encounters a unknown file type or thous hidden windows things that clutter the folders. what i want to know is there a way to force all the content form the DVD to the hard drive. perhaps a program or in unix like i do in linux by useing the -f command. btw im not to happy with the unix shell in osx it needs a little learning on my part cos its simaler to linux but not quite if you understand.

Have you tried MactheRipper? It's a freeware app for ripping the content in the way you describe.
i thout mactheripper was only for dvd video content. the files i have are pictures and mpgs and music and documents.
