I love this software. I rip my kids' DVDs using it and play them on a Raspberry Pi with Kodi. This way I don't have to wade through menus, language selection (never defaults to mine), commercials, and ridiculous piracy warnings (I paid for it! Don't treat me like a criminal).
- raverbashing 10y agoYes, the absurd of piracy warnings is ridiculous Really makes me think twice about giving them my money
- fredley 10y agoNothing makes me want to go out and pirate something purely as an act of defiance than unskippable piracy warnings.
- dvdhnt 10y agoFor me, it's definitely the un-skippable advertisements. Like, as a software developer and user, I despise when an API is exposed that allows an application or website to suspend expected behavior in favor of custom hijinks, but to me, that's exactly what ignoring my menu and main-menu buttons is.
- MereInterest 10y agoEspecially when it is enforced by licensing terms. At some level, it is just a bit that gets interpreted by the software as "ignore these user commands". It is very reasonable to make a player that listens to the user commands, even if that bit is set. At a different level, it is a requirement under the terms of the patent licensing to implement this "feature", or else be in violation of patent infringement.

- rabboRubble 10y agoHave you been able to figure out ripping Disney DVDs? Ex. Cars? Disney is doing some funky disc encryption and I didn't find a solution with a few hours of googling.
