How about a Stand Alone AnyDVD program? - Page 2 - Club CDFreaks

Olli, i take you helped program Anydvd aswell ?

@ ElliotW,

What type of “relatively retrograde equipment” system hardware are you providing to your clients? Isn’t the solution to your problem is to provide mainstream computer systems to your clients? I note that you live in USA were mainstream computer system hardware is readily available at reasonable prices. If you provided mainstream computer system hardware to your clients then your computer systems would be providing stable and reliable performance in all situations.

Best Regards,
bjkg

Sure. I have written AnyDVD's predecessor "DVD Region Killer" (anyone remembers this?), AnyDVD evolved from it. I have written most of the kernel mode part of the original AnyDVD 1.0 before it was sold to SlySoft.

This is not such a bad idea as we all know how popular dvd decryptor was for other uses as well as removing css etc..

Yes but if we could have a standalone why use 2 programs...(sorry 1 prog and 1 driver)
I personally use dvd decryptor for ps2 iso backups and also iso backup to backup (i know there are lots of other progs that do this but i find it easest to use)
sure we can live without it but its not that bad an idea
If only anydvd could employ lightninguk as nero have employed the dvdshrink author anonymously of course

"ElliotW,

Boy, I wish I knew in advance what I'll get.

My ex business partner took over some old buildings for use as learning/work environments for handicapped and disadvantaged young people. We try to get discarded PC’s from our ex Fortune 500 clients and distribute them to charities, schools and small companies in need of help. BIG BAD MS actually helps out with some of the software. Some of the kids go on to find good jobs and the others have a job they can feel proud about.

We get whatever machines we can, but we like to get at least 50 of any one kind. I’ll look a model over to determine what needs to be done (within our limited budget) and write simple instruction manuals and create software disks. I try to take the end user’s environment into consideration when building software disks; that is, we won’t install ripping software on machines will be going to schools, or we may not have burners that month etc.

Most machines wind up being your basic XP/MS Office boxes, but when I can I’ll have the kids build Dual boot XP/Linux machines with lots of software goodies.

Wouldn't it be illegal for someone living in the UK to work professionally on a program circumventing a copy protection? I am not so familiar with UK law, but in Germany it most likely would be (says a guy, who moved from Germany to Switzerland not long ago).
OTOH who would ever find out that he works for SlySoft... ?

are you using STOCK Microsoft IDE drivers?

Some chipset IDE drivers cause problems with certain programs and/or particular DVD burner brands....

Ron: Olli said said it better than I could:

But what ElliotW wants, is "DVD Decrypter with AnyDVD's brain and SlySoft support".

Perhaps we should just leave it at that and close this thread.
