Rip a strange work made DVD |

| I have a DVD movie that was made at work that I need to rip and convert to WMV so that the clips can be hosted on our servers for viewing. I did not author the DVD and we no longer have the original video.
When I try to rip the video with DVD Shrink, I can see a few of the clips as the main movie, but 90% is listed as "unreferenced material". There is no way to select just that video as the new main movie. If I try to rip with DVDFab, to shows larger video clips to select but when I preview it, it jumps from scene to scene and not the flow that I need to rip nor how it plays back on a dvd player. Any thoughts, this could take a real long time to rip part by part, fuse the VOBs and then convert. Can a edit the "unreferenced material" so that DVD Shrink thinks its part of the regular movie. I can easily edit just the clips / chapters that I need from there. And its really the only tool I know how to do this with. THX, JNT |

| Gday,
Is this disc protected?, if not why can't you copy the VOB's to you HDD in windows etc then edit/convert from there. James. |

| If you tell dvdshrink to rip the full disc, the unreferenced material gets ripped as well, provided you do not uncheck the boxes. |

| Don't use DVD Shrink.

| The disk is not protected.
Yes, DVD Shrink can rip the whole disk, but I need to rip it in parts so that I can encode each clip to WMV. The way it rips now, most of what I need to encode is in the unreferenced material and the clips are mixed around. |

| I would use DVDDecrypter in IFO mode with file-splitting set to none so that it dumps each PGC out to 1 VOB file. I do this on my TV episode DVDs all the time. I find it easiest to make a batch file script to do it - I can post it here if you are interested. |
