RipIt4Me |
RipIt4Me is a freeware utility that helps you backup your copy protected DVDs. Recently released DVDs are now very often equipped with stronger copy protections - such as ARccOS and RipGuard DVD. Programs like DVD Shrink or DVD Decrypter cannot handle these types of discs. RipIt4Me is fully automated and the wizard will guide you through all the necessary steps involved. If you prefer, there is also a true "1-Click" mode that will perform all the involved steps automatically for you. Development stopped April 1 2007.

Version history:
Version 1.7.1.0 (22 March 2007) View entire changelog * Added an automatic updater. When a new version is available, RipIt4Me offers to download and install it for you. If you answer yes, the application closes, and the updater launches, fetches the app, puts it in the right place, and launches it again. If DVD Decrypter is currently ripping, the rip is aborted. If the VOBs are being cleaned, the cleanup is also aborted. This of course, will only work the next time we have an update. * Added code to detect whether the DVD appears to be protected. This is displayed in the main window during Step 1. If the DVD isn't protected, there's a new button in Step 1 to open the DVD with DVD Shrink directly. * Added "Open .ini file" to the Main menu. * Added handling of missing titles in video_ts.ifo as experienced in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (Greece). * RipIt4Me now terminates AnyDVD "the right way" (by sending a WM_CLOSE message to its main window in the tray, instead of killing the process). * In any VTS that's excluded from the rip, the replacement IFO now only contains 1 title and 1 PGC. * Attempted to fix the problem with DVD Decrypter running out of resources... Let us know if the new code helps! * Attempted to fix a crash that could occur when a VTS had too many VOBUs. This was possibly responsible for the crash on "Vientos de Agua". Please, try and report? Thanks! * Fixed a PUO problem in the analysis code that could cause some PGCs to not be cleaned appropriately. * There was a serious problem in the analysis code related to Sprm[5] (TTN number). Now fixed. * Attempted to fix the "Not a DVD" problem that some users have had in 1.7.0.0. If that still does not work, post the debug log you get during Step1. * In Movie-Only mode, a bug in Step1 could cause the IFOs to be copied in the last used target directory (instead of a temporary directory in %TEMP%). * The psl import code now works when the path includes "(" or ")". * The "Save logs" function now also copies the Fi...

This is a simple update to my last review of RipIt4Me last August, 2008 . One word ... FANTASTIC ! After ripping perfect cloned backups in both Movie Only AND Full DVD Modes(for DL Discs), I have actually settled into a comfortable routine ( no headaches or stress). Thanks to the RipIt4Me Controller (Which This App Is) , all ripping/decrypting tools work together seamlessly ... and give top-notch results on DVD+R(and +DL) Media , preferred dvd media for all dvd players (uses the same data block structure as commercial dvd media...Movies , etc) . I'm gonna try putting together a guide (as far as my setup and procedure goes), 'cause I'm at the point that some people (close friends&family) are kind-of peeved that I'm ripping&burning full quality dvd backups in 30 to 38 minutes ! While they're spending big bucks on "buggy" copy software , with less than satisfying results . One friend actually bought 3 different rippers/decrypters ... something like $200 worth of "One Click" automated warez ... Still takes him an hour+ ,And maybe a coaster(or 2) , to get the same results I do .For Zero Dollars and Half The Time . Once you know the steps and when to properly use them , this app "RipIt4Me" can really surprise you , as well as other avid ripping affecionados . PS : No Updates Are Needed ...EVER !!!

I used RipIt4Me to "attempt" backing up a recently released DVD. Previous attempts to do this using DVDshrink, DVDdecrypter, and even DVDfab Platinum 5.0.3.0 failed. But, while RipIt4Me wasn't able to do the complete job, it did remove enough of the crap so that DVDfab Platinum could finish the job. Development on RipIt4Me stopped 18 months ago. So, in the case of recently released DVDs, it may no longer be valid as a standalone ripper. BUT, it has now been added to my arsenal of "tools" that facilitate a successful rip for backup purposes. For a more long-winded version of this review, see this forum topic: http://forum.videohelp.com/topic358076.html#1897954

Now that DVDFab HDDecrypter is going the way of "trialware" (meaning next-to-useless), I've decided to go back to my roots ...as far as dvd ripping/decrypting goes . RipIt4Me does the job ! It's basically a "controller" for DVD Decrypter 3.2 . It analyzes the disc for "suspect" areas that might contain copywrite encryption(usually alot!) , and then sends it's results to DVD Decrypter . Then it rips away . You then finish off the process with a cleanup of empty garbage that was inserted by DVD Decrypter (used to help with the ripping process). And finally Recode(Nero)or Shrink(DVD Shrink) does the job of formatting the dvd disc before finally burning it . DO NOT BE SURPRISED IF IT DOESN'T WORK AT THE FIRST INSTALL ! I still believe a "Break-In" period is needed. That's why I ended up with 2 coasters after my first 2 trys . The 3rd Try Was The Charm . Now everything's working fine . Great burns . DVDFab HD Decrypter crashes alot now ...especially with the new dvd releases that are "Heavily" encrypted with fake menu,movie,and audio files AND the latest copywrite junk inserted just for "Good Measure" . Why pay (and encourage) money-grubbing pirates for their expensive rippers/decrypters , when you could be one too... for free ! AS LONG AS IT'S FOR BACKUP PURPOSE ONLY ! Which is all I want to do . PS : Someone offered me money for doing this .... N O-W A Y , Ever !!

From "MaximumPC" magazine, July 2007 issue, page 102: From a reader: "As of March 31, the RipIt4Me website has been closed and development of the program has been discontinued, and as of April 19 the same goes for FixVTS. . . . . Magazine response: "The folks who built those two apps were cease-and-desisted by persons unknown . . . . . [T]his almost certainly means the end of development for both . . . "

Excellent tool. The decryption of a DVD that failed with DVD Decrypter went through smooth with this tool. Excellent. Need to go back and copy all the ones that I wasn't able to copy.

Confirmation for Somebodeez comment about v. 1.7.10: RI4M now goes out of its way to find what it never saw before -- an archived, out of the way Decrypter 3520 that is not referenced in the Setup Preferences or anywhere else. As a consequence, it reports that I have an old Decrypter version, do I want to download 3540 ? (Which link has since 404'd, by the way.) I answer NO, and it goes merrily along with the DVDD rip anyway. A query of DVDD in Help --> About *while the rip is taking place* proves that it is indeed v. 3540 that is doing the job. And everything else proceeds normally. A rather minor bug, I'd say. As to the site being down just now, let's hope this is a temporary hiccup of some sort. It's not paranoid to say that free tools like this are probably in the "industry" crosshairs, but that would be a great shame if this one is following in the pattern we saw for Shrink. RI4M is a very good tool that has just gotten better and better.

RipIt4Me is a wonderful free tool that does as promised and is extremely easy to use and updated frequently! I only have 1 teeny problem with version 1.7.1.0 - it keeps saying I need the latest DVDDecrypter but I have been using the last version that was available. AFAIK, there are no more updates for DVDDecrypter.

Nothing like it. Cleans up fake ifos and vobs, allowing for a clean BU. Insanely good prog.

Awesome with the installer version. Insert DVD and then 1-click and you have a DVD ripped to your HD and rectify all protections on my protected originals.

Wow this has become the Swiss Army knife of DVD ripping! There is no better or more useful tool around and that includes AnyDVD. And the best thing by far is that it's free! If you regularly backup DVD's and ar not using this tool already then you want your head tested. :-)

Excellent, indeed. For a while there has been request for localized versions of RI4M. I would really love to see this happen rather sooner than later.

How freekin' cool is this? Decided to give this lil app (& it's required associated apps)a try & I came away impressed to the max! I don't do all that many backups, but this method is easy-peasy & works a treat, and the results are very impressive. Kudos to the author for making this available!

I just want to say Thank You for all the hard work. RipIt4Me is AWESOME. Very easy to use!!! Keep all the good work and please never sell it to a private company.

A great tool getting better. Being able to watch whats happening while it's running and be able to go back to and view the saved logs makes this program standout. DVDFabDecrypter is ok but RipIt4Me is more fun to watch in action.
