hi

i downloaded mac the ripper to copy my dvd's, what program can i use to then get it back onto a blank dvd??????

thanks
 
Finder should be able to do it, if your Mac has dual layer burning, if not try Toast, or FFMPEGX (which is cheaper).

If you want them playable on your computer then use Handbrake

EDIT Eidorian's suggestions are better.
 
"If you want them playable on your computer then use Handbrake"

you can play mactheripper's content through dvd player
 
If the image is larger than a single-layer disc, you'll want something like Popcorn to DVD2OneX to shrink it down to fit on a single-layer disc.

I've never used Popcorn, but I find DVD2OneX to be very fast and of high quality. I think it's $30 for a license.

I know this program is seen different ways by nearly everyone, but Disco will also burn VIDEO_TS files.

"Bad Sectors" problem with MTR

I have several new DVDs (Pirates 2, Narnia) that all have the same "problem." MTR says they have "bad sectors" and although I have not tried burning them yet, when I play the video TS folders in VLC, they stop playing at the beginning of the main movie. If I start five seconds in, they play fine. How do I fix this?

Two things to be aware of/try:
Accros protection-even using MTR with it, you may still get error messages, but they often DO NOT preclude you burning a successful disk.

The other thing to try is a Roxio (assuming you use Toast) suggestion that instead of clicking burn, you click "Save as Disk Image". I don't know why, (and it takes a hell of a lot longer), but that often gives you an image that then burns without problems.

I'm sure you've already experimented with just extracting the main feature, etc.

Please just post in one place, pal.

Good luck!
