It is NOT an clonedvd issue and slysoft is already aware of this movie.

Thankyou sheep18, just a little patience would be nice once in a blue moon, wouldn't it. The answer is to watch the original until it gets sorted.

Yes.
Can't wait for anydvds AI scanner (tm).

I used DVD neXt COPY and anydvd together and got a working backup watching it as I type too flawless so far. I did remove the <> on the title as those there is what was confusing this software it seems to me?

Looks to me like there are 3 titles in VTS 8 that are protected. 1,34,36. Each title is over an hour long with title1 being the right one with a playing time @ 1:33:10.

Not sure as I just did full disc when I backed up my copy.

My first rip I did a menu and movie only with another ripper and same thing with Full disc just to test a full rip.

I will add my sorrows...........I am using fab gold. I tried 3.1.7.5, 3.1.7.4, 3.1.7.0, dvd fab express. I took my first original back and replaced it. Tried the second with same results. FINALLY...just got 3.1.7.6 and it solved the problem. good luck to all.

Some people have deadlines

I just offered a solution that's all some people don't like playing the originals. I never do.

Not if its yours.

And if it isn't, it is not allowed to be discussed here.

I downloaded a trial version of DVD Fab Platinum today, it copied, and burned a perfect full disc backup of "Blades of Glory". I am in region1.

Good for you, we are glad you are pleased with the trial, now all thats left is to buy the software. Nice to hear a good report and welcome to the forum, I will give odds that AnyDVD will have a solution before you realize that the movie was not even worth watching.

I expect later today you think?

I have no idea, but I am sure it will come. I still dont understand the rush. Play your original, if you must see this crappy movie so fast. Then when AnyDVD come out with a new version you can backup the crappy movie and have 2.

Alan
agree
SS is doing people a favor by not quickly updating AD or CDvd for this crappy title
No use treating the original dvd disk like gold
After your first view, most will never watch it again
So the original will stay in permanent pristine condition
unless some really wants 2 copies real bad

Yes it really wasn't one to keep I bought mine just because of problems it was having with allot of software. I will most likely sell mine now.

The message I received fron clonedvd was a structure problem with the dvd. I searched this forum and people said to use different programs and wait for slysoft to update. I first tried dvd fab platinum version 3.1.7.5 -It seemed to work but it did not work properly.
Late yesturday they came out with version 3.1.7.6 and it worked Perfectly. If you cant wait for slysoft to update you can use a trial version of dvdfab 3176. It may take a few days for slysoft to update anydvd. Good luck.

Use anydvd & DVD neXt COPY, there is a project title edit needed so look at the screen shots and you'll have a back up.

Normal default title ( won't work )



Edited the project name as shown, that will allow you to back this title up.

Doc
Yes a new scheme
I think the protection was designed to specifically thwart Cdvd
as Cdvd is unable to open any of the 3 titles
The lowly but still mighty DvdShrink was able to rip Title 1 to completion whereas Cdvd could not
It seems other less known progs had some succes at least ripping title 1

Yes but in reauthor mode so you lose out on some stuff if you really liked this movie. That's why I suggested DNC.

Anybody who is in such a rush to do this poor excuse for a movie can rip it to their Hdd with Free DVDfabbdecrypter and then use any program including free Shrink to compress and burn it with Imgburn. Then soon AnyDVD will update and you can do it all over again. Wasted time in my opinion.

Doc
yes
you are right
I forgot to mention DS worked in re-author mode only

first i am a newbie so hope i do not offend. i unfortunately have and did watch but do not like to send out my originals, anyway, tried using dvdfab no luck, tried decrypter, no luck. i was reading here so went and bought s.s. tried as suggested with ripit and errored and then got the message "looks like there is no disk in drive" i am confused!
thanks
