Oh, and received this form Erwin a little while back if its of any help...

"DVD2one detects encrypted data on basis of the info in the PES header. I have
seen some decryption sourcecode in which this bit is read using a fixed offset.
This can and will cause problems, since there are a lot of disks that have
sometimes longer headers. Are you sure that those decrypter programs update that
info in the PES headers correctly?"

LALTOO-
Tried all those things suggested before posting. I don't think the problem is related to anything environmental ( harware/software setup) since the program works for certain titles and not others. That points directly to a bug in the application. If the application did not work on any title, I would say that it was my harware/software setup.

Remember we are dealing with a 1.0 version of this application, and there are no doubt corrections that will be made to make DVD2ONE more compatible with all titles. At this point I have to place more faith in applications like Smart Ripper and DVD Decrypter and their ability to decrypt DVD's successfully, given the fact that I have use them for a while with other encoding/burning processes before DVD2ONE came along.

I'd be interested to hear Erwin's take on this problem.

Well, I've got a possible work around. I've had success with two DVDs that gave me the encrypted data error before. This adds some extra work to the process, but these are DVDs that I've tried many different ways and had no success. Also, this is the way it worked for me so I'm not going to monkey with it too much...it may very well be that certain steps do not have to be taken. Experiment as you will =)

First: Rip the entire disk using Smartripper in File Mode - default settings.

2nd: Load IFOs into IFOedit and remove p-ups ect. Then get VTS to create new IFOs.

3rd: Create an Image of the ripped files with IFOedit/IMGtools.

4th: Mount the Image using DaemonTools.

5th: Run DVD2ONE on the mounted image.

6th: Wait.

7th: Breathe a sigh of relief as you realize the msg from DVD2ONE is about being complete - not an encrypted data error.

=)

Let me know if it works for anyone else.

damn i got same prob . im about to try out your method mordant but im a noob and need a little help on a couple of things if you have time.

Firsly you said "Then get VTS to create new IFOs", what is VTS and how do i use it.

Secondly how do i greate an image with imgtools

thanks in advance for any help

Milkman, I've currently got my DVD writer on its own chan and have taken my DVD-ROM out of the system (I'll be putting it back in again today I think - but have had them both in the system in the past and had the same problems with them on sep chans).

WinXP says its a DVDwriter. =)

Optical:

Download the program IFOedit and IMGTools at Doom9's website www.doom9.org I think.

When you start IFOedit and load one of your IFO files you will see the GET VTS button. Press it and IFOedit will make new IFO files.

If you have the dll file from IMGTools in your IFOedit directory you can also click the Make IMG button on IFOedit. There are guides for these programs on Doom9 as well and they go into better detail.

Let me know if you have any luck.

I would like more detail about this step please.
I will try this with "Murder By Numbers", the only DVD of my collection I was unable to backup.

If you have IFOedit its pretty much right there in front of you.

I load the main IFO file, then click "Region Free", "Remove P-UPs", and then "Get VTS sectors". The Region Free and Remove P-UPs may not actually be needed but working from false logic - I did it the time it worked so I'll keep doing it. Get VTS sectors has been said to help with the false layer change pause as well, so you might as well do that part.


I'm not that experienced with IFOedit. I use it based on guides I've read. I sort of click blindly following what others have written. I don't think it matters much which IFO you load, but I go for the one that matches the main movie.

I finished disk 1 of the LotR Extended version and am working on disk 2 right now. Just finishing the IFOedit part and getting ready to run DVD2ONE.

Man, I hope this keeps working. I'm going to be very dissapointed if its a fluke/false hope situation. Now that I've had DVD2ONE work a couple of times I can't make myself go back to using the manual re-encode method...it takes so much time and is harder to work out the variables (framerate ect...) DVD2ONE is so damn easy when it works, its ruined me for other tools

Well, my little trick isn't working anymore. Can't get through LotR Ext Disc 2.

Crap.

Frustration is really hitting strong now.

Tried it on one of the DVD's that I get the error on and it didn't work.

Erwin are U out there??? Help!

Please, now that this error has become more common...is it being looked at as something to be fixed in the next release?

Or some sort of patch that those having trouble could apply?

Mine always gets to 99% then gives te encrypted data error. This really sucks a$$!

I have the feeling DVD2one is getting an unexpected error and gets confuse thinking its cause by encryption.

Since the source can be process by other tools its obviously not encrypted.

True, no other application is having issues reading the resulting .VOB's or processing them.

If it does turn out to be an actual encrypted data detection error, I will be surprised.

Again, this only happens on some titles. Others have processed flawlessly. One of the DVD's failing is not even a commercial title, but something a friend of mine put together in Premiere, authored in Sonic and pressed in Record Now. How can that be "encrypted data"?

i couldnt get your trick to work mordant thx anyways.

let hope a fix comes out soon

Sorry optical, it worked for me for two discs and then I started getting the error again...just a fluke success I guess.

have yall checked your aspi drivers? that would account for the problem described.

Drivers all up to date and functioning with no issues. Using Adaptec ASPI under Win2K:

ASPI32.SYS 4.71.2
WOWPOST.EXE 4.6 (1021)
WINASPI.DLL 4.6 (1021)
WNASPI32.DLL 4.71.2

Also outadated ASPI drivers would not work for some rips and fail on other titles on DVD2ONE. No logic to support that type of behaviour.

i had the same problem with my lg drive it would not decrypt but the philips dvdrw would ,i upgraded the aspi drivers first then upgraded the firmware,now the drive will decrypt all dvd,s

just a thought

The error appears sometimes. My workaround is:

Get DVD
Use the program Smartripper
in Movie Mode
use folder Stream Processing
(activate) Enable Stream Processing
(activate) Video Stream and the function Demux to extra file
(activate) Audio Stream and the function Demux to extra file
Now you have the mainfilm as *.mv2 (film) and *.ac3 (sound)

Use LFOEdit
create a Celltime.txt File from the DVD (look for IfoEdit guide) The Celltime are the kapitel of the film
Authoring a new DVD with LFOEdit (look for IfoEdit guide)
(Make a new DVD, get the *.m2v file, and the *.ac3 file, and the Celltime.txt, after a while you have a NEW DVD)

Now you can use this "new dvd" and DVD2ONE without an error message to create your dvd-r compatible dvd.

best regards

f_selter, could you expand on this...walk us through it once step by step.

Will this allow us to retain subtitles ect?

...and where do I get LFOedit? Is it a part of IFOedit?

Thanks.

XP users should know that WOWPOST.EXE and WINASPI.DLL are NOT NEEDED and will cause rip FAILURE. I thought that i was doing a good thing by installing the latest xp win aspi,but i had to delete those two drivers from the system folder. i cant find the article,but i did read about this somewhere. when i run aspi check now it shows those two as not installed,says i am missing components,but my rips NEVER fail. in fact i have had no failures ripping or burning. i rip all files with smartripper,process with dvd22one and burn with prassi. i do burn at 1x, i noticed that flipping through chapters is faster that way,it must be a better burn.

One thing I noticed about all that are having the problem ... Everyone is using Windows XP.

XP? Not me. I've got Win2K SP3. Stable as hell. Still getting the error on certain DVD's. NOTE: DVD2ONE works for me on some DVD rips without the error. That's why I believe that we are spinning our wheels talking about ASPI, DVD Decrypter settings, .DLL files, service packs, etc... Also, I've re-ghosted my machine with at least 3 different OS builds just for the hell of it to verify that this is not OS related stuff. Same error in every build.

Bottom line... everyone is just guessing what is the cause of the "Encrypted Data Detected" error is. The one person that might be able to shed some light on why the application generates this error has yet to post. Hell, the moderator hasn't even stepped in to comment. Maybe this is a sticky legal issue with the application and the developers are in a catch 22. Why would they have written code to check the PES header for encrypted data? Read the comments from Erwin to m0rdant in this thread on 2/8. Says it all.

As for the workarounds... one may as well go back to the DVD Decrypter, DVD2AVI, RmPEG, CCE, IfoEdit, Nero method. It would prove to be just as long. DVD2ONE should work without having to do all of this. DVD2ONE is suppose to alleviate this extra stuff and make the process quick, easy and reliable.

Hi,

after buying it a few days ago I've just downloaded the new version 1.0.2 of this divine tool .

But unfortunately I'm still having problems with converting the German DVD 'Natural born killers'. DVD2One always tells me that the data is decrypted, but it isn't! I've ripped the files using DVDDecrypter 3.1.4.

Any new ideas on how to get rid of this message and get this thing to work?

Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Thx in advance.

Still having the same problem with the new version.

Tried Instant Copy on the exact same ripped image and it ran through the conversion with no problems.

So, I really don't think it can be said to be a problem with my system. Even if there is something about my setup that causes the error, if every other piece of software that does a similar task runs without that error then there is something wrong with the way DVD2ONE performs its task.

I'd really rather use DVD2ONE...I like supporting David over Goliath...and will keep trying new versions as they come out.
